I have to say I have enjoyed the experience of learning Drupal. I've played with Drupal for about 8 or so years. My first drupal experience was with version 4.6 or 4.7 and and I started building a version of my website in Drupal 5. My current website is version 6, and part of the reason I wanted to take this course was because I've been wanting to learn more about Drupal and Drupal development and move more toward that in my future. I also wanted to dive into Drupal 7 to update my site.... [read more]

A Second Drupal Site Completed

This week I launched a Drupal site, my second since completing Forcontu's begginer and intermediate Drupal training.  The site is a Drupal Commerce site for a nature camp that uses webforms linked with Drupal Commerce for its registration process and an events calendar.  It was heavy-lifting but I'm pleased with the result, and, more importantly, so is the client.  

My Forcontu training and the foundation I received in Drupal site building served me well again.  With two soup-to-nuts... [read more]

 just completed the Expert in Drupal 7 course, and it was great!  The instructor was really helpful, and the activities were well-constructed and useful. 

One thing to be aware of if you decide to take this course, is that it's important to know at least a small amount of PHP and MySQL before you begin.  Though the beginning of this course contains a brief review of  PHP and MySQL, which was helpful for me since I didn't have a ton of experience, I think it would be very challenging to...

Drupal Advanced Class Training Experience

Almost everything in this Advanced class was new to me and it was packed full of information. It started out with an introduction to PHP and to MySQL, and then went on to cover how to program modules, none of which I had ever done before.

We started with the Devel module to give us tools to be able to do module development. We began with creating the basic files for a module, how to call an include file, how to use hooks, and how to reinstall modules using Devel. We programmed schemas... [read more]

I just want to say what a great course this has been so far. I am really enjoying it and I feel the material is introducing me to the power of Drupal at just the right pace. I have found that the coursework covers a wide range of topics and is very well structured. In particular I think that the Practical exercises have been well thought out and make learning the difficult parts much easier.

I am currently supporting a massive Drupal website at the University of Edinburgh which was... [read more]

Talk about training... This Forcontu Drupal 7 Training is as thorough as any training could get. I have taken many online courses but this training beats them all.

Forcontu provides you with all of your training hosting needs, all you have to do is follow the training activities. You can take your time to go though the exercises and anytime you have questions, comments, concerns, Prof. Fran Gil is very attentive and responsive to the forums.

The eBooks go... [read more]

Forcontu's Drupal 7 Intermediate Course: An Awesome Experience!

maija | Drupal 7 | Expert in Drupal 7
01 August, 2015

I’ve really enjoyed both the beginner and intermediate levels of Forcontu’s Expert in Drupal 7 course.  I had a little experience with Drupal before beginning this course, but the first two levels really helped me gain a better understanding of this powerful CMS.

The best part of this course is the way it builds upon itself.  As you move forward, you are expected to utilize the skills previously learned. Although the books offer quite a bit of guidance and the... [read more]

This was my first online class I was not sure how the class will teach us without having face to face interaction. This was the best tutorial with practical experience. It was a big learning curve for me.

The experience of doing these assignments gave me confidence to go ahead and to learn more about Drupal. So now I understood how to learn things step by step and in easy way, thanks to the Fran (Drupal Forcontu Trainer) to show me proper and effective way of using the modules.

I... [read more]

I am happy to announce that I have completed the Expert in Drupal 7 coursework and project! YAY!! I have a great sense of accomplishment having worked hard to achieve this goal.
