[spectre] training course for development of rich media content web sites

[Margarita Dorovska]

In August this year, InterSpace organized a series of open-source based 
training courses in Sofia as part of TOSMI programme (http://tosmi.org).

Currently, we have two more free places to offer for the course 
Producing Media Content for Web http://tosmi.org/node/2, which takes 
place from 10th to 16th august in Sofia and we still have scholarships 
covering the participation fee (which means that participants have 
arranged hotel, coffee breaks and lunches and have to take care of their 
travel costs and plan for some pocket money for their stay).

The course is focused on developement of web sites featuring rich in 
audio visual content (i.e. videos, sound and photos) and targets artists 
and filmmakers. The participants are thought how to develop a website on 
Drupal/Jumla (CMS-s based on open source) and will work on their own 
website, having support by the trainers. The taught course 
(lectures&practice) takes place from 10th to 15th and on 16th there will 
be individual consultations and further advice session from 9:00 to 
13:00 for those trainees who would be interested.

If you are interested in the course, please submit your application 
online at http://tosmi.org/node/7

The course provides good opportunity for content producers who would 
like to develop new websites or migrate their old ones to a much more 
flexible and powerful Content Management System, allowing syndication 
with a lot of online platforms/tools. Through the course participants 
learn how to make a website from scratch and how to maintain it afterwards.

Eligible participants: from the countries, covered by Media Programme of 
EU, which means: all EU countries, Norway, Iceland, Lichtenstein, 
Switzerland and Croatia.
