Come meet us at DrupalCorn in Iowa
At the start of August we’re heading up to Iowa for the wonderfully named DrupalCorn.
This event is very similar to DrupalCon, except it has an extra “r” and is based in Iowa City.
DrupalCorn is the annual Drupal event for Iowa and this will be the third time its been held.
Rod from the OSTraining team will be going there and giving our 1 day introduction to Drupal called “The Absolute Beginner’s Guide to Drupal.”
