Our Drupal Training Philosophy
We believe Drupal training can actually be fun, or, depending on your personality, at least very interesting. It can be quite enjoyable to learn how simple and quick it is to do something with technology that seems like it should take a long time and be really difficult. The sites you can build with Drupal today in a a short time, might have taken many months and tens of thousands of dollars to build just a few years ago. Drupal is a powerful tool and learning Drupal is very empowering.
Another aspect of our training philosophy is that it's not just about the "how," but also the "why." Drupal can do lots of amazing things, but just because you can do it doesn't mean you should do it. If a site's functionality isn't effective, if doesn't help you achieve your goals, drains limited resources, why do it? As web strategists and web developers, we take time during our trainings to examine the big picture, the pros and cons of certain approaches, and well as how to implement them.
Our specialty
When it comes to Drupal training, we work with professional developers who need to learn Drupal and with non-developers who want to learn how to build Drupal sites.
In addition to providing courses, we have worked with a number of organizations, training staff to build their own sites for projects, departments, centers, intranets and more.
We offer on-site and remote Drupal training. Contact us for more information.
We also provide On-demand Drupal Support, which can include training and mentoring.
Our courses have been developed and are taught by Sam Cohen, a web strategist, Drupal consultant and principal of New Media Solutions. Sam has over 20 years experience as a trainer and educator. Prior to becoming a Drupal consultant he spent a decade as a lecturer leading historic tours worldwide. He also managed a training program for one of the world’s largest human rights organizations.
