This Drupal training course will take you from novice/intermediate to Drupal expert in one day. Drupal is a powerful solution on its own - but the add-on modules of Views and CCK take that flexibility to a whole new level. This day is dedicated to turning you into an expert on how to integrate the two modules that get a lot done quickly and properly — learn how to build Drupal sites the Drupal Way! You will learn some of the secrets that created sites like MyObama (the most successful online campaign ever), the White House, MTV.co.uk, The Economist and Amnesty International - all leading examples of what can be done with Drupal!

Who's suitable for this Drupal course?

This drupal course is suitable for people familiar with Drupal who may have used Views and CCK already (although that is not necessary) and now want to gain an in-depth understanding of how the modules work and how to really get the most out of them.

Drupal training is best delivered by somebody who is working with it day to day and that it just what we got, a brilliant trainer who really knows his stuff. The training Brightlemon give is at just the right level to ensure that you go away armed with exactly the skills you require to start working in Drupal straight away. The training is flexible enough to cover areas of particular interest to participants while keeping it relevant to all. Everybody we dealt with at Brightlemon was friendly and helpful. I recommend these training courses and look forward to future courses at Brightlemon.
