Student Scholarships

I made a new ticket option during registration for qualified applicants to select "Student Scholarship", which allows them to register for free. The form has them agree to share their information with Forcontu, for purposes of registering for the online Drupal training afterwards.

Forcontu has stated that they will promote this opportunity on their social channels. Twin Cities Drupal Camp should look to promote this as well. I added Forcontu as an "in-kind" sponsor on the website.

I also drafted language around promoting this opportunity, and began asking partners in the higher ed community to share it with their students:

For students only: Interested in a career online, doing web development, web design, or other related jobs (UX, project management, content strategy, accessibility, digital marketing, SEO, etc.)?

Consider attending the annual Twin Cities Drupal Camp for free! Since 2011, this regional conference has been dedicated to web, technology and the content management system Drupal. This year's event is scheduled for two days, Sept 12 and 13th, on the University of Minnesota campus.

Drupal is a leading open-source, content management system (CMS), powering over 10% of the top 10,000 websites worldwide. 1 in 10 enterprise websites run on Drupal, from major universities and government agencies to health and science industries, global retailers and the entertainment industry.

Normally priced at $200, we're offering a select number of free admissions for qualified students interested in attending Drupal Camp. And as an added bonus, we're also offering a 180 hour online training course* in Drupal site building (valued at over $4,500!). All for free for those who register and attend this year.
