DrupalCampNYC 10 on December 10th: tickets still available
DrupalCampNYC 10 will be the largest New York City Camp to date, with 500 anticipated attendees and over 30 high-quality sessions across a spectrum of Drupal-related disciplines.
It's all happening on Saturday, December 10, 2011 at John Jay College in Manhattan, for the bargain price of $20. Your registration fee will not only cover a full day of top-notch Drupal content from some of the finest minds in our community, but breakfast and lunch as well.
DrupalCamp sessions are created and presented by camp participants. For this camp, sessions will be organized into the following tracks:
- Development sessions might talk about topics including module development, security, tools and environments, best practices, etc.
- Site building sessions address topics around the Drupal admin, community-contributed modules and tools, and more. If it's not Development, and it's not Presentation, and it's part of the site creation process, it's probably here.
- Presentation encompasses design, front-end development, and theming.
- Business and end users is more geared toward the non-technical facets of Drupal. This might include project management, team dynamics, tips for content managers and editors, agency issues, marketing, and so forth.
- Sysadmin and performance is the track for things like hosting, database optimization, testing tools and protocols, CDNs, and various other topics.
Within each of the tracks listed, there will be content suitable for Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced Drupal professionals. Additionally, there will be New/Newish to Drupal sessions early in the day, to help bring up to speed those who do not yet have a deep knowledge of Drupal; birds of a feather sessions will allow participants to engage in open discussion around specific topics.
Finally, each time slot will feature a Community Spotlight speaker. This speaker, drawn from the NYC Drupal community, is a recognized expert in his or her area of Drupal and will speak on a high-impact topic of his or her choice.
Also of note: there are a few sponsorship opportunities still available. Benefits and levels are available here: http://drupalcampnyc.org/sponsors/how-sponsor
The New York City Drupal community is a collection of friendly people that are eager to accept newcomers, who are always welcome to any event. Regardless of your experience with Drupal, or lack thereof, we warmly invite you to join us for DrupalCampNYC 10.
Get know Drupal, grow your skills, share your wisdom, or just make some Drupally new friends.
