Symfony components have a significant presence in Drupal 8, and for those in the Symfony wanting to make themselves even more knowledgeable and marketable, DrupalCon Amsterdam is a great opportunity to learn new skills and make great new friends.

Just a few weeks before SymfonyCon in Madrid, DrupalCon Amsterdam runs from 29 September to 3 October and will have plenty of Symfony content. It will be a great opportunity to learn Drupal 8: with Symfony2 components included in core, parts of Drupal 8 will look very familiar to developers who currently use Symfony, as will the object oriented programming methodology.

If you’re considering coming to DrupalCon Amsterdam, you probably know that Drupal skills have been in high demand for years. That trend is only expected to continue and perhaps even accelerate with the release of Drupal 8— and Symfony developers are uniquely equipped to learn the platform quickly and hit the ground running.
