Training

I have never attended such an exciting training class. The professionalism, presentation, content and community of the Drupal Career Starter Program is top notch. The passion that Michael Anello brings to Drupal training, not just an instructor, but a person who loves what he does and teaches that love. You will not only learn the mechanics of Drupal but you will come to understand the power of Drupal, the beauty and symmetry of the creation/development process.

Mike is an exceptional instructor and he has covered all bases, One-On-One live instruction, open lab times, handouts, hands-on projects, project overviews, screencasts and follow up One-On-One Training. Go Ultimike! I was spread thin during the training weeks, but just as I suspected, I miss it now that the training is over.

I got my first client lined up before the end of my internship. I took a while to negotiate the contract, though. Now I have 2 more in the proposal queue.

What an exciting class, instructors, community and content. I don’t think I can put how great this class was and is into words that will do it justice. You don’t just learn about Drupal, you live it. You are immersed in the community from the very beginning. Before your internship or even before you get a mentor, you are learning the ins and outs of contributing to the community from editing documents, to contributing fixes. If you want to learn Drupal, this is the way to do it!

The classes covered everything I needed to know to begin my new career. Mike’s expert knowledge and enthusiasm for Drupal filled each class with positive energy - it was evident that Mike was not teaching the class just to earn a paycheck. His goal was to teach every student how to become a knowledgeable, confident Drupal professional.

Mike's teaching skills have given me the confidence to accept Drupal work. I am currently working on a website for a business and have the confidence to accept more work. I don't know if that would have been the case without the Drupal training that I received from Mike. I have taken many programming classes both from education companies and colleges and Mike's teaching skills are, without a doubt, among the best that I have experienced.

I learned a great deal and I'm proud to say that the experience I gained from the classes, along with the associated internship, was instrumental in getting my current employment as a contractor working for the Air Force. Bar none, the DCSP was the best decision I ever made. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to move into a rewarding career...
