Are you new to Drupal 8? If you are, the Absolute Beginner's Guide to Drupal 8 is the class for you.
This course will get you up-and-running with Drupal. You'll learn all of the key concepts you need to understand, navigate and use a Drupal site. You'll learn how to build a Drupal 8 site, from content and user organization, to working with modules and themes.
This training will be entirely hands-on. You'll have a Drupal site in front of you and will be actively working and learning throughout the class. Additionally, this course offers more than just live training. When you attend this class, you get a copy of "Drupal 8 Explained", the follow-up to the best-selling Drupal book, "Drupal 7 Explained". If you are a Drupal beginner, this book will teach you everything you need to know. You follow clear step-by-step instructions to build real Drupal sites.
Attendees will also receive six months of access to our online Drupal training and support. This allows you to start learning Drupal now, even before the class. After the class, you can keep watching the videos and keep learning. Plus, if you get stuck, you can always ask our team for help.
