How Drupal Internship can help The Drupal Project and your Organization.

Being working with Drupal & seeing the talent demand for almost 8+ years now, I feel there has always been a higher demand than availability for Drupal talent. With Drupal till Drupal 7, since the learning curve was steep, it was also difficult to bring in new talent to the Drupal pool easily. 

We at QED42 believe in creating Drupal talent via proper training & have been conducting boot camps since 2011. In this session, I would like to share our journey over the past couple of years building Drupal talent. Drupal Internship is by far the best & the fastest way to bring fresh talents to Drupal. This IMO is one of the best ways to contribute to Drupal & Open Source. When we groom and train new Interns in the right way, they can be great long-term assets, not just to the Drupal community, but to your Organization as well. 

Following are a few topics that we would like to cover as a part of this talk:
- The significance of Drupal Internship on :
- The Drupal Project
- On your Organization.
- Internship process at QED42
- Challenges during Remote Internship.
- Understand the impact internship has:
