GP Strategies' Experts Provide Simple Instructions to Quickly Optimize SharePoint

ELKRIDGE, Md., June 4, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Global performance improvement solutions provider GP Strategies Corporation (NYSE: GPX) announces the release of a new book called SharePoint 2013 Plain & Simple published by Microsoft Press and written by three GP Strategies SharePoint experts, Johnathan Lightfoot, Principal SharePoint Architect; Michelle Lopez, Certified Microsoft Office Specialist (MOS); and Scott Metker, Chief Software Architect.

Microsoft's release of SharePoint 2013 has continued their drive for making the SharePoint platform the "go-to" resource for organizations to use for collaboration. Even though the platform has been very successful, many people are still unfamiliar with using it. SharePoint 2013 Plain & Simple is unlike most other SharePoint books which are geared towards power users, administrators, developers and architects. It was written for end users and others who want to learn about using the platform quickly.

SharePoint 2013 Plain & Simple includes hundreds of four-color screenshots, with step-by-step instructions on how to complete over 100 SharePoint tasks, including important tips that are not widely known. The indexed format allows the reader to search for topics and specific tasks easily, and then follow step-by-step instructions, including screenshots, to see exactly what to do. It also has "TRY THIS!" callouts, which are exercises readers can apply to what they have learned.
