These Speaker Training webinars are designed to help DrupalCon speakers prepare to present at DrupalCon. While it is not mandatory to attend these sessions, we feel participants get a huge value out of the material and information shared. If you cannot make these dates, don't worry, we'll post the recorded audio and slide videos following each session here.
Thank you to Emma Jane Westby of Design to Theme for graciously volunteering to run these sessions!
