Class Overview
I have been using the website content management system for over twenty years called WordPress: which approx. 45% of websites are built with.
I have communicated and met the founder Matt Mullenweg, and have designed and worked on websites for the Canadian government, the most trafficked legal website in the world, and various other smaller organizations and individual professional clients.
I can teach you WordPress from scratch: including how to design, host, and manage the content of sites.
I can get novices up to snuff so they can begin to take on clients.
I have attended numerous WordCamps in New York City and Montreal.

Good internet access and a small budget to pay for web hosting.
I go over what WordPress is and how it works. I will explain how design is accomplished through themes, functionality is added through plugins, and how hosting works, from basic hosts like Blue Host and Green Geeks, to more advanced options like using DigitalOcean and Cloudron. No coding or hands on experience, just theory and tours of the interface and hosting options.
