Training for Business Contact Manager 2007

Question
-
Is there any kind of training for Business Contact Manager 2007? I know it is an add-on to Outlook 2007. But we are in need of specific training for BCM.

With the exception of the Microsoft Office website, I have not tried these products; but a quick Google search turned up:

If I were you, I would look further into the last two to see if it something your company is interested in.
Here are some printed material on the subject as well:

One other site you should definitely try:
http://communityclips.officelabs.com/
A colleague at work sent it to me for some project server stuff. I would not really qualify this as 'official training' but for the beginning stages of learning how to do stuff, this is a good site to start out on for most of the office related products.
Searching around, i quickly came up with one video pretty quickly:

Looking through the MOS, MCAS, and MCAP programs, it doesnt look like there are any exams which directly align to BCM specifically. Given that much of MIcrosoft Learning's training content aligns to the certification tracks which they offer, this unfortunately results in minimal training courses being available for the BCM product. As Michael indicated to you, this means you probably will have to focus on third party training sources.
