Practical Team Foundation Server - A Quick Start

An all-day free event to get you up and running quickly with Team Foundation Server 2010.
Continental breakfast and lunch are provided. Event starts at 9:00AM and ends at 5:00PM.
This event is held at three locations in January:
- January 11th - Microsoft Office, Los Angeles
- January 18th - Microsoft Office, San Diego
- January 25th - Microsoft Office, Orange County

Description
Our goal is to quickly bring you up to speed with the essentials features of Team Foundation Server 2010 so that you can quickly setup and be productive in your own TFS environment. We start out by outlining a generic development process which embodies basic activities that are encountered in any software development process.
We'll use those activities as the context in which you'll learn to use TFS and you'll be able to easily map those activities into the process that you use in your own development work.
