Greg — Mon, 15 Sep 2008 22:03:14 +0000

This course is made up of four sessions every Saturday morning for a month. Start the month as a newbie, end it a Drupal rock star. The sessions will cover Drupal 6.x, though most of the content is applicable for 5.x or 6.x.

_EDIT: Class is over...the next class will be in January.

Where: 1045 Acoma Street, Denver, CO 80204
When: 4 Saturdays from 9AM to Noon starting September 27th.
What to bring: Yourself and your laptop. If you don't have a laptop, let me know when you register and a computer can be provided.
Cost:

Per class - earlybirds pay $45 if you sign up by September 23rd. $60/day for all
registrations after that.
Get all four classes discounted to $150 (save $30 over earlybird price and $90 over the normal price)

How do I sign up? Complete a signup request form.
How many people? To ensure a high quality class, each class is limited to 8 people. I expect that every class will be full, so if you are interested you should sign up now. I will update this page as people sign up.
