Tell me more about the "FREE

Tell me more about the "FREE Drupal Training". I'm a Drupal newbie and certainly need all the training I can get.

Depending on the extent of the training I might be able to convince people that it is a worthwhile venture to head up to SF.

Worthwhile

If you are interested in Drupal BADCamp is the best event to attend hands down. Free training or not the quality of presentations are well worth any cost to attend. I've traveled from Utah for the last 2 years.

Training

kristen pol's picture

According to Jen Lampton (from Chapter Three) who usually organizes BADCamp, there should be 2 full days of training this year (Thursday / Friday). I'm considering doing a self-guided multilingual training based on my new book.

Chris Shattuck (Build a Module) did a self-guided training last year based on his buildamodule.com videos that was very well received. I went to a responsive web design one by Four Kitchens that was pretty decent (though it was their first run at it so there were some glitches).

I think BADCamp is the largest Drupal event besides the DrupalCons so definitely come if you can.

I had the opportunity to be a mentor at both BADCamp and DrupalCon Denver. Although BADCamp was a challenge for me, the training in Denver was great!

Thanks for all your sharing on the training, newbies (like me :) appreciate it. Is any of any training available on line?

I could not find actual training on 2011.badcamp and 2012.badcamp is pointing back to 2011 site.

When I browse to URL http://badcamp.net ... I'm taken to the past 2011 event http://2011.badcamp.net

However, with the "www", the URL http://www.badcamp.net does take me to the 2012 event at http://2012.badcamp.net

This had kept me from registering thinking that the new site wasn't up yet! But I realized today to try the www. Not sure if anyone else gets the same results.

uniqorn's picture

Hi All! I'm excited to be hitting up my first Badcamp this year and am looking for a crashpad &/or female roommates to split the cost of a room and transportation if necessary to and from the event. I plan to be in San Francisco Thursday, November 1st through Sunday, November 4th. I've couchsurfed before and am a very appreciative and respectful guest/roommate. :) If you have space in your home or are interested in sharing a room, message me on IRC (nick: uniqorn / channels: #drupal-pdx, #drupal-pnw), Skype (nick: pixfights) or via email (heather@opensourcery.com). Thanks!!
