Drupal Training - Introducing Drupal course (London) July 21, 2010

This Drupal course quickly gets you up to speed with building dynamic database-driven websites with Drupal.

It begins with a basic introduction into the main concepts behind Content Management Systems (CMS) and the types of websites they are meant to help create. We then map these concepts onto Drupal as a CMS and take you through installation to creations of a series of websites - each one adding an additional layer of functionality.

We start from a simple “presentation” website, move through to the addition of a news capability, present and search through catalogues of services and/or products, add sophisticated contact solutions, e-commerce capabilities and finally some social elements to enable users to interact with each other via the website.

A constant theme throughout the course is to illustrate how one can map general requirements to specific Drupal concepts.

This course is suitable for web developers and web designers that are interested in finding out what Drupal can do for them in terms of accelerating and improving their web creation process.
