I’ve been working with the Quest folks in Australia to put together a multi city tour and I’m happy to begin sharing the details.  I’m speaking at the SharePoint Community Conference in Wellington, NZ

You can REGISTER NOW for the events in Sydney and Melbourne or get more details.

I’m planning on doing a session on “10 Steps to Successful Deployment” and “Preparing to Upgrade to SharePoint 2010 Today” including a presentation by Adam Cogan, Microsoft Regional Director and .NET MVP and Kathy Hughes SharePoint MVP in Sydney While being joined by an Expert Panel made up of Microsoft rep, SharePoint MVPs, experts.

Sydney, Australia                 Tuesday, July 7th (8AM-1PM)

Melbourne, Australia           Thursday, July 9th (8AM-1PM)

These two events will be special half day events.  Speakers sessions, and panels are still being put together.

As well special user groups meetings are being held in Brisbane and Perth.  More details to follow.

BSPUG - SharePoint User Group - Brisbane, Australia Tuesday July 7th

PSPUG - SharePoint User Group - Perth, Australia Friday July 10th

I apologize I wasn’t able to fit in Canberra and Adelaide.  I hope you can join me in one of the cities above.  Next time I hope to make it to.

I am interested in getting the right Microsoft people, SharePoint experts, and MVPs on the panels.  Ping me on twitter if you are interested @joeloleson
