What you'll learn in this wordpress class:

WordPress is the premier content management system for those seeking an easy, user-friendly way to set up and maintain a website. In this class, you will learn about the basics of what WordPress is, such as what is the difference between WordPress.com and WordPress.org?

You will also learn about the technical requirements you'll need to get your website online, such as how to obtain a website domain and choose a website hosting service.

  • Explore the WordPress back-end and see how easy it is to publish and create a website

Prereqs & Preparation
This is a beginner course which is designed to be helpful to who who have never seen WordPress before or those who have used WordPress but without a formal understanding of it. 

Students are required to bring their own laptop for note-taking and a couple of hands-on exercises. Apart from that, we ask that you have a basic familiarity with navigating websites and the internet, nothing more! Come prepared with questions! This is an excellent opportunity to get all of your WordPress questions answered as the class is a broad overview with time for answers on each topic.

For students enrolling in 12 week part time and immersive classes, it is not recommended that you book more than one class simultaneously.

    I wasn’t exactly sure what would be covered as the Word Press course track is oddly named... but I learned enough to get what I needed to get started.
