Drupal Global Training Days is an exciting initiative from the Drupal community to introduce new and beginning users to Drupal and we at Valuebound are excited to announce a session on 18th March to welcome newcomers to the Drupal community and empower them to start great work.

This is an initiative coordinated by the Drupal Association as a part of the  Global Training Days to introduce new people to the wonderful world of Drupal.

You will build a live website yourself , be a part of the Drupal community and explore career opportunities in Drupal

Difficulty Level: Introductory

Proposed Session:

Get started with development in Drupal 8. Learn about the main features and concepts of Drupal with live practice sessions. By the end of this training session you will know about the terminologies associated with Drupal and will be able to understand how Drupal sites are constructed. You will be equipped with the knowledge of how to differentiate and choose modules to get the functionality you want.

Duration: 1 day

Why is this workshop free?

Valuebound has been an active contributor to the Drupal Community and has achieved the second position worldwide through the same. This free event is part of our many more efforts to give back to the community.

Valuebound is solely dedicated in helping organizations and individuals to adopt Drupal in their operations in the most effective manner. We believe in giving result oriented training sessions which will equip you to build the perfect websites you visualize.

Things you should know:

A little knowledge of what is a Content Management System would be great. Experience in using and creating websites using systems such as Wordpress, Joomla!, or HTML and CSS is a plus but  NOT a mandate. We encourage the newbies and shape up the Ninjas!
