DrupalCamp Grenoble 2026 to Host Free ‘Drupal in a Day’ Training on 10 April 2026

Designed as a practical entry point into the Drupal ecosystem, the program is ideal for university students, career changers, digital professionals, and anyone curious about open-source development. No prior experience is required, though basic web literacy is helpful. The format supports real-time learning with live coaching from experienced Drupal contributors.

The training is closely aligned with the Drupal Open University initiative, which seeks to integrate Drupal into higher education and make community-curated learning resources widely accessible. The workshop guides participants through building a complete site while learning essential Drupal concepts and practices.

Workshop schedule includes:

• Installing and configuring Drupal in a local or prepared environment
• Creating content types, fields, and menus
• Using layout tools for page-building
• Understanding roles, permissions, and configuration, the "Drupal Way"
• Exploring key contributed modules and how to find help
• Connecting with the Drupal community and learning next steps

Participants are encouraged to bring a laptop, a sense of curiosity, and a bit of patience for the setup process. Installation instructions and environment requirements will be provided ahead of time to ensure a smooth workshop experience focused on learning, not troubleshooting.

What participants receive:

• A fully functional Drupal site built during the day
• Hands-on understanding of Drupal fundamentals
• Access to learning resources and contribution paths
• Connections within the Drupal community
• A certificate of participation confirming acquired skills

Feedback from past events has been overwhelmingly positive. Participants have described the day as accessible, empowering, and deeply engaging—especially for students attending with their schools or joining open source workshops for the first time.
