The YAPC::Europe 2015 will take place the during the first week of September in Granada, Spain.
We are currently looking for people interested in being instructors. If you are one of those, just keep reading!
Courses will take place on September 1st. If you need more days, send us an email.
Courses have to be related to Perl in some way.
We have six classrooms reserved with capacities ranging from 15 to 40 seats. If you need more, please tell us.
All the classrooms have a high-definition projector; some of them also have a whiteboard.
You can propose half-day (3.5h) or full day (7h) courses.
Instructors will be able to set the price for their courses at their discretion; however, experience from previous conferences show that those prices usually range between 150€ and 200€ for a full day course; however, that includes meals and coffees which will not be included in this case). The organization will charge a minimum of 150€.
The organization of the conference will take care of the student payments through the Act platform.
For every course the organization will charge a 15% overhead to cover processing and administrative costs.
Instructors will be paid by the conference organization upon presentation of an invoice. Educational services carry a 0% VAT in Spain so if your account manager is OK with that, we have no problem.
We will accept proposals for courses in English and in Spanish. Currently, our intention is to have a full-day course on modern Perl in Spanish and the rest of the courses in English, but we will consider other proposals for courses in Spanish anyway.
It is up to the instructor to decide the minimum amount of students needed to actually give the course.
You can apply to become an instructor until March 31th, April 17th.
