iBuild.PH Web Solutions and Services has conducted a basic to advance Drupal training to selected staff of the Leyte Normal University (LNU) on the use and management of the powerful, scalable platform last January 25 to 29, 2016 at Tacloban City, Leyte. The training included topics such as Drupal security and advance management, Drush, SEO and analytics, web hosting, among others.

The upgrade that we will be performing involves both hardware and software changes. All changes involved are meant to make the whole platform faster, easily scalable, and with a drastically shorter recovery time in case of an incident. Here are some highlights:
