New Workshop: Responsive Web Design for Drupal

Earlier this week I did a private launch for a brand new workshop and now I am happy to extend the registration to you as well. Responsive Web Design for Drupal is one of the first (if not the first) workshop of its kind that teaches you how to build responsive themes for Drupal 7 sites. This workshop is for freelance web designers whose clients are begging them to create mobile sites ... and for those who are afraid they might be asked.

This course is perfect for freelance web designers who need a little structure to learn responsive web design. You have experience building web sites but you’re overwhelmed by the thought of having to learn yet another web technology. You typically build Web sites for $5k-$50k with a very small team (typically fewer than 5 people and sometimes it's just you). You learn by doing, but don’t want to charge a client to learn how to build responsive web sites in case it goes wrong and you end up having to do loads of work for free on a site that never works (the idea of bidding on a project to “learn” a new skill actually makes you hyperventilate because of that one time where you did just that and you were thoroughly punished and almost lost your shirt).

You're definitely working in the web industry. This course is not for hobbyists who want casual information. This if for professionals who are under the gun to deliver responsive web sites now. If you’re a hobbyist, buy the 2nd edition of the book Front End Drupal when it comes out.

This course will give you the specific skills you need to build new, responsive themes and retrofit old themes to be mobile-friendly. You will be able to attract new clients who are looking to attract the mobile market. Don't forget your existing clients too: you will be able to work with your current clients to upgrade their current sites to mobile-friendly designs.

This workshop is at-your-own-pace. You’re never behind. It includes step-by-step instructions that respect the time you can commit to learning the new content. (But if you’re an information junkie, don’t worry. We’ll include lots of links to some of the best information available on the Web today as well as two free bonus workbooks (Building and Theming a Micro Site with Drupal 7 and PSD to Drupal Theme). )

There's more information on the registration page: Responsive Web Design for Drupal. I look forward to seeing you in class.
