Without experience, it is difficult to get an opportunity, and without an opportunity, it is difficult to gain experience. You can break this cycle by participating in a course that we at Academia Institute of Technology are offering to students of computer science and informatics as well as web production, prepared by the company Agiledrop.
If you are already familiar with HTML, CSS and PHP technologies, you can attend the course where you will get to know the Drupal system. Drupal is a platform used by the world's largest companies and organisations, such as NBC, Tesla Motors, the White House and many others. With this open-source system, it is possible to develop websites, online shops and business applications.
Experienced mentors from the Agiledrop team will build upon your basic knowledge with best practices for developing web solutions on the Drupal platform.
What will you learn?
Course participants will gain:
- Advanced knowledge of configuring Drupal websites,
- basic knowledge of developing templates or themes, and
- basic knowledge of developing modules.
Participants who show the greatest progress will be invited to join our team and take up permanent employment at Agiledrop as junior developers. The number of positions is not limited.
If employment does not interest you at that time, you will be able to make good use of the knowledge gained in other areas of web development.
Date
The next course date has not yet been determined; we will notify you as soon as we set a new date.
Course schedule
- The course takes place on one Saturday, from 9.00 to 15.00 with an intermediate break, in the company's premises in Maribor. Snacks and drinks will be provided.
- Course participants need a laptop with which you will be able to follow the lecturer with practical work.
- Before the course itself, the company will send selected candidates instructions for preparing the environment.
At the Drupal course you will learn about:
- Drupal site building Over 10,000 modules are available for Drupal. This allows our projects to be similar to assembling with LEGO bricks. At the course, we will teach you which modules are most popular and how to configure them.
- Drupal theming (front-end) The website design is prepared by a designer, and the task of the Drupal theme developer is to implement the design as accurately as possible. We will teach you how to develop Drupal themes optimised for mobile phones as well.
- Drupal development (back-end) We often find ourselves in situations where no combination of modules solves a specific problem. We will teach you how to develop a custom Drupal module and show you the best development practices.
Requirements for course participants
Interest in permanent employment at Agiledrop d.o.o. is not a condition for application and participation in the course, but the company reserves the right to prioritise the selection of candidates who have more experience with web development, in the event that there are more applications than available capacity.
Required prior knowledge:
- All course participants must know the basics of HTML, CSS and PHP technologies.
- Course participants must have their own laptop.
- Lectures will be conducted in Slovenian, but knowledge of English is recommended.
Employment
Participants who show good progress during the course will be offered permanent employment for an indefinite period by AGILEDROP D.O.O.
