This webinar will focus on providing strategy and best practices to designing a taxonomy and metadata schema to work with the Term Store for SharePoint 2010. There are a number of ways to manage content by leveraging this new service, whether the intent is for social collaboration or rigid categorization.

PPC will review the different strategies you may take to leverage the Term Store effectively and in a manner that suits the business objectives and culture of your organization.

We will also review the difference between proprietary taxonomy solutions that replace the term store and those that integrate natively with the term store and why that is important to both end users and the Enterprise.
