Sydney, Australia, training
peterx - April 26, 2006 - 11:32
Hello Drupal users,
If you know someone in Sydney, Australia who wants to learn more about Drupal and PHP, send me an email.
I am running free training on Drupal mixed with professional training on PHP in Sydney, Australia. Suitable for people who know HTML but not PHP and want to take more control of their Web site development.

No online training
Hello Anshul,
The Drupal site has some online training in the form of "how to" articles and there is a growing range of online tutorials. I currently offer person to person training because it allows faster development of individuals.

Please contact me.
Hello Naren,
ASP to PHP conversions are popular. I conducted several and coached a number of people through conversions. PHP is easier to learn and support compared to ASP.

Hi Peter,
I didn't realise you were in Sydney - I thought there were no other serious Drupal people in Sydney! I'm very glad to learn that I was wrong. Unfortunately, you missed the first ever Aussie Drupal meetup in Melbourne last weekend (it was awesome).
I have some experience in Drupal training, as I did some one-on-one Drupal teaching for a web designer / graphic designer, a few months ago. I went through installation, configuration, adding contrib modules, and a bit of custom theme design. I'd be interested in helping you, or even in joining forces with you, to conduct some Drupal training in Sydney. We definitely need more people involved around here! Feel free to contact me about this.
Also, I strongly recommend that you join the Drupal Australia group on the new Drupal Groups website. This is where you'll find out about future Drupal events in Australia, and it would also be the best place to post about any events (such as training sessions) that you may organise yourself.

drupal australia
hello.
is registration to the Drupal australia group by moderators approval only? i tried using my drupal info and it booted me out and then tried to register and nothing has been sent yet.
I'm in northern NSW and very interested in anything Drupal/Australia as I employ Drupal with several clients (list grows every week)
cheers, ekendra
count me in!
I am very interested in learning how to use PHP and Drupal to have more control on how my website looks. I only know HTML though!

The first training project will be to develop Cronline
Cronline is for one or two people who want to learn PHP, Ajax, and delve into the admin part of Drupal. You need to understand Javascript and get to Wahroonga between 10:00 am and 2:00 pm for a few Saturdays. June 3 and 17 would be ideal. I will send out email to people who have contacted me.

Excellent
Great; would you be interested in coming to Melbourne sometime (perhaps in the Spring), to deliver something similar? If so perhaps we could begin to arrange something.

Melbourne in Spring
I am happy to visit Melbourne in Spring after the snow melts off the tundra, the polar bears retreat, and ..., sorry, wrong country.
Yeah, Melbourne. Koko Black. We can celebrate the success of the training sessions at Koko Black. Or we can hold the sessions at Koko Black and have 25 courses of chocolate served throughout the day. Chilli in dark chocolate. Mmmmm.....
The week including October 9 is a good time for me to be in Melbourne.

Thanks for day one
Enjoyed meeting you and your relaxed presentation style. Look forward to Day 2 next weekend. Just a thought. Do you know of any books to help novices like me estimate costings for Drupal projects? i have a project which I mentioned that which will follow up with you when I see you next

PHP for people who know HTML and a little Javascript. July 1, 15, 29, and August 12. $250. Bring a notebook computer. Limit 5 students.
The course is ideal for people who want to know PHP to augment a HTML based Web site. The course includes tea/coffee/broadband access/mints.
If you are going to attend one of my free courses on Drupal and work at the PHP level, either creating modules, coding theme changes or just want to understand that strange stuff between
