Free Training for Magento U OnDemand Courses Extended

We've extended our free M2 OnDemand training to March 31st. I don't really have anything else to add to that except: don't miss out!

Imagine 2017

Are you planning to attend Imagine this year? We have a group here on the forums where you can connect with others before you even get there to make sure you have a friendly face waiting for you at the event! It's also a great place to find out about community events around Imagine like the hackathon and Big Dam Run.

If you're new to our forums, welcome! Take a look around, introduce yourself, check out our guidelines, and be sure to reach out to me or any of our awesome moderators if you have any questions.
