Drupal Global Training Day

Our Drupal4Gov Half Day had quite the turnout, with around 50 participants in attendance. During the first half of the event, attendees broke up into groups and sat in on a couple speaker sessions of choice. For the second half of the event, attendees rotated through shorter, lightning sessions. We had a number of great speakers who presented a variety of topics, including content type and taxonomy planning; working with Twig and Docker; and how to establish branding strategies and build trust within the tech industry. For a more detailed breakdown on our various presentations and presenters, please keep reading!
