Hands on Drupal training with experts. If you're brand new to Drupal and want to get a head start prior to the camp, you will be interested in attending the training session(s).
These sessions will be geared toward a specified Drupal feature, module, theme or otherwise. You may plan on these sessions including time to actually work within Drupal and train. It is recommended that you bring a laptop and headphones with you to the training to gain the most from the lessons. These sessions are available for beginner to advanced and welcome all levels of expertise.

Introduction to Web Accessibility [cancelled by trainer request]
Although the World Wide Web is increasingly important in many aspects of day-to-day life, there are still many people who cannot use the web to its fullest potential. For people living with disabilities, aging populations, people working in distracting environments and others, the Web can present barriers to access, resulting in frustration and exclusion.
