New video on Acquia U
Check out this video on Acquia's training programWhat and why
We are in the midst of a critical labor shortage for qualified Drupal developers. They simply aren’t available. The only opportunity you have as a project manager or engineering director is to train. No one is dealing with the scaling issue more than Acquia right now. Using a combination of mentoring, classroom, external resources and the Drupal community at large, we are solving this problem. Come and learn some techniques which you can apply in your organization to hire, train and retain your technical talent.What will I get out of this session?
