Training Spotlight: Beginner Level Courses
Are you new to Drupal and eager to advance your skills? Or evaluating Drupal to see if it works for you? Take one of our beginner-level training courses on Monday to get up-and-running with Drupal and fully prepared for your week at DrupalCon.
Steve Burge’s Absolute Beginners Guide to Drupal 8 is a hands-on class that will teach you all of the key concepts you need to understand, navigate and use a Drupal site in plain English, no previous Drupal experience required! You will learn how to build a Drupal 8 site, from content and user organization, to working with modules and themes.
Speaking of themes, check out Drupal 8 Theming with Twig if you are a designer or front-end developer and want to get into Drupal theming. Chaz Chumley and his crew will help you master Drupal 8’s new Twig templating engine to create fun and fast websites with simple steps from concept to completion.
Another all-time favorite is Chris Porter’s Views From the Ground Up, designed to teach you how to use the Views module. Users who want to build or customize displays or layouts, or simply create their own administrative areas will love this interactive course. The program consists of 8 real world (and useful) views that are created with an increasing level of complexity.
All courses are held on Monday, May 9, 9:00am - 5:00pm. Trainings are not included in a regular DrupalCon ticket and require a separate registration. Light breakfast, lunch and coffee breaks are included with every training.
