Drupal Community Education Projects & Resources

This is a start on creating a central listing of all known community training projects, as discussed in the The State of Drupal Community Education session at DrupalCon Munich 2012. (I have started a new wiki page rather than editing DrupalEdu related groups because the related groups page is a much broader listing, and I'm hesitant to make it more focused or to broaden this listing.)

Drupal in a Day - Reading UK 19 April 2013

Start: 
2013-04-19 09:15 - 16:30 UTC
Organizers: 

Hello folks!

Acquia just moved to Reading. I'm excited to offer a training course for anyone who is curious about Drupal and based in Reading or surrounds.

I proposed to run this course for people who were brand new to Drupal. Perhaps those who had heard about it, but never had a chance to try it out yet. This course is for people who have prior experience with web development and know HTML/CSS and other CMSs or frameworks.

I assume folks in this group will likely already know Drupal. So, if you know someone who fits that bill, please pass this along.
