Training (free or commercial)

Ahead of the Drupal Global Sprint weekend, we are hosting a FREE introductory workshop for people who have never contributed before. The training is part of the Drupal Apprenticeship Scheme and primarily for 9 of our current apprentices but we have a few additional places that we can offer to anyone.

Open source projects like Drupal are completely reliant on people like you giving over time to refine and progress them. As well as honing developer skills, working on projects like this is a great way to meet other developers and grow your network.

Priority will be given to people who are signed up to The Drupal Yorkshire Global Sprint event which is at the same location on the following days - Sat 27th and Sun 28th Jan. To sign up please get in touch with Crispin via meetup.com or Twitter @crispin_read

"We recruit people, often from underrepresented groups and disadvantaged backgrounds, then train and coach them through an 18 month work placement. They learn all the facets and core skills necessary to succeed as a developer from training sessions devised and run by expert web developers and on-the-job mentoring."
