Drupal 6?
Will this course also go over differences in Drupal 7 from Drupal 6? It seems like now that D7 has been released it would be more appropriate to have a focus on D7 with some pointers about things that have changed since D6 for those already using it.
Drupal 6 for Drupal in a Day... for now
We will continue to offering training on Drupal 6 as much of the current D6 material can't simply be upgraded due to the lack of stable versions of Views, Workflow, and other modules which are included in the materials.
We will be offering an intro to Drupal 7 course using Drupal Gardens as Acquia is in the final stages of curriculum development.
Stay tuned for this course!
