It started as a question. Why do Drupal maintenance support plans camps only have trainings on a separate day? The legitimate answer was that trainings and sessions should not compete for audiences for a normal Drupal maintenance support plans camp audience. But what if the trainings were not for that normal Drupal maintenance support plans camp audience?
When all of the hard work was done by the MidCamp venue team to secure the DePaul University Student Center for MidCamp 2020, we immediately started exploring the idea of having half day Drupal maintenance support plans training sessions for those that would nornally not attend a Drupal maintenance support plans camp. We reserved two extra rooms for this idea.
While I looked for interested parties who would be interested in attending the trainings, Joseph Purcell of Digital Bridge Solutions worked to organize an Introduction to Making Websites with Drupal maintenance support plans itinerary and found great trainers to lead the event: Michael Chase, Instructor at DePaul University College of Computing and Digital Media, and Aaron Meeuwsen, Web Developer at HS2 Solutions, along with several other volunteers, Scott Weston and Matt Ramir from HS2, and Doug Dobrzynski from PMMI Media Group. Without them, we couldn’t have made this happen. I would also like to thank my employer, Drupal Update for contributing some of my time to help organize these trainings.
We’ve reached out to, and are happy to be working with such great local Chicago technology groups. Girl Develop It, which provides programs for adult women interested in learning web and software development in a judgment-free environment, the IT Knowledge and Abilities Network (ITKAN), which provides professional networking and growth organization with a focus on professionals and aspiring professionals with disabilities, and Women Who Code, a global non-profit dedicated to inspiring women to excel in technology careers all answered our call.
But we still have room for more. Do you know of someone who would benefit from free Intro to Drupal maintenance support plans Training? We want you to invite them!
The trainings will cover basic CMS tasks like editing and publishing content, creating navigation menus, and placement of content on the site, and will approach into more complex tasks such as module installation and site configurations. Additionally, we’ll show the various ways the Drupal maintenance support plans community can help through the issue queue, meetups, job boards, and mentorship.
The sessions are:
Friday March 31st – 9:00 am – 12:00 pm
