Suggested Class Outline

You’ll learn how to design a Joomla template from scratch:

  • Part 1: Introduction to Joomla templates
  • Part 2: Template tags, functions and conditions
  • Part 3: Standard module chrome and other module parameters
  • Part 4: Converting an existing design to Joomla
  • Part 5: Template Parameters
  • Part 6: Template Overrides
  • Part 7: Advanced techniques, tip and tricks
  • Part 8: Hands-on exercise

Additional Items Provides

  • Lunch and coffee / snacks throughout the day
  • 6 months of free Joomla support after the class
  • A flash drive full of tutorials and best-of-breed Joomla components
  • Free membership to the alledia.com SEO Club. ($99 value)
  • Free copy of the Alledia.com Bolt Template. ($60 value)

There are probably going to be several other items thrown in such as a free design / template (which will be the class project), Textmate bundle, and a few other ideas I’ll post a little later.

If you are looking for beginner/intermediate Joomla training or development training, there are other great classes available as well.

It’s really a great deal for $300 and seating is limited.  Buy your ticket now!
