Though end users can share their calendar using Outlook, time will come when an exchange admin will be asked to check the permissions to see whether the server has the necessary permissions set. So, how can you check the permissions of a shared calendar in Exchange 2010? It is not exposed in the EMC and hence we have to use the shell.
The command we need is Get-MailboxFolderPermission. Let me check my account using the cmdlet.
Get-MailboxFolderPermission -identity "Rajith Enchiparambil"
This doesn't show me the calendar permissions. We need to specify that we are after the calendar permissions. The command we need is
Get-MailboxFolderPermission -identity "Rajith Enchiparambil:\Calendar"
As you can see only one account has access to my calendar and that too with "availability only" access right.
That’s it for now!

Is it possible to then share a calendar from Exchange?
My example is the receptionist wants access (edit) the calendar of the CEO, Deputy CEO, and their P.A's. Rather than go to each person and ask for access from each, can this be pushed from Exchange?
Karena,
yes--see this post for details. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff522363.aspx
Yes, you can. Run Set-MailboxFolderPermission -identity "ceo:\calendar" -user "pa" -accessrights Editor
