Training

A few weeks ago, Steve and I organized a Drupal BootCamp here at Bradley University that went very, very well. About 40 people attended. Steve and I tag-teamed the morning sessions on how to get started using Drupal to build a simple website, step-by-step.

The blog has been a bit quiet the past few weeks. Both Steve and I have been very busy. We've both been working to plan another Drupal Boot Camp event -- this time at Bradley University in Peoria, Illinois. The event will be Friday, May 2nd all day, starting at 8:00am. We're planning to follow a similar layout to the UIUC Drupal Boot Camp last month, with morning presentations on Drupal basics and topics, and an afternoon of hands-on and question-and-answer topic discussions.

Both Brian and I are at DrupalCon 2008 in Boston this week. We will be giving our presentation about content-managed Flash and Flex sites with Drupal tomorrow night at 4:45 PM, but we’re both going to focus far more on the Drupal side of things and touch briefly on the ActionScript and Flash, so that even Flash and Flex neophytes will understand the entire backend, setup, and use cases.

If you would like to learn more about how to use the Flash / Flex stack, however, you have two options to get training from Developer Community Champions that we should mention.
