You Will Learn

Who is our WordPress Training for?

Past attendees have often been…

Marketing Managers and Marketing Coordinators because they use, or should use, WordPress everyday and want to be much more proficient.

Business Owner/Managers because they’d like to understand what they’ve bought or are buying from web designers. 

Some people even use our training make a start on building their own website. Everyone finds that they can manage their own content without having to pay a full-blown website designer.

Uni-Students wanting to gain valuable skills for the workforce.

Non-Technical Training

This is not a technical course, we don’t teach programming.

We will touch on some elements of how the programming works behind the scenes but our focus is on getting you practical pragmatic help to use your website, not on becoming a website builder.

Why WordPress

We work with WordPress because it is a fantastic content management system (CMS).

It provides normal people like you with the freedom to manage your own website.

You’ve almost certainly heard of WordPress, and if you haven’t then you’ve certainly visited hundreds of websites running it.

  • WordPress is the most popular website publishing system and is currently used by 30% of all websites on the internet
  • You’ll certainly hear people “in the know” and normal people tell you they find it easy to use
  • It makes you a cup of tea and brings you a biscuit (not true yet, one day maybe.)

It is most of these things and much more!

WordPress is a fantastic content management system for many reasons, but without the right training, your investment in a WordPress website design could leave you feeling like it was a waste of time and money.

Be ready!

  • Have a reliable computer to work on
  • Ensure you have Google Chrome (Firefox is okay too, but better if everyone is on the same browser)
  • When you get the zoom invite from us please check you can run zoom
  • You must have a microphone so we can converse quickly and efficiently
  • It’d be wise to have a camera* so everyone can get the most from the online meeting
  • Please check that you know how to mute your mic. Ben will ask everyone to be on mute and you can unmute when you have a question. This reduces distractions from external noises.
  • A learning mindset - This means being ready to ask questions so you YOU get what YOU want from the WordPress training.

*You’re welcome to leave the camera/video feed off but at times Ben will want you to share your screen with the group as part of the learning experience.

Sara Fitzgerald

I found the WordPress in a day course engaging and informative. I feel Ben presented well and I now have the confidence to build a web page on my own and administer it myself. A huge amount of content was covered and I would recommend it to anyone looking to find their way around WordPress

Ingrid Kirkpatrick - Quality Air 

I would like to Thank Ben and the superb team at Matter Solutions for their friendly guidance and excellent training! Wanting to learn the skills to manage, post and implement changes to a WordPress website this session was packed full of helpful tips, tricks and hands-on training and expert guidance. Ben taught us the in’s and out’s of the WordPress Dashboard and its features such as Widgets, Plugins and more! I would recommend this course to anyone seeking some invaluable WordPress training and guidance!

Kim-Vu Salamonsen

Ben was great. He has a very warm approach to teaching and was very patient.

Karyn Lohse - DV Connect

Excellent content and very easy to understand. I got a great deal out of it.

Aston Marks - AusProof

To decision makers considering buying this course for their staff, I would say that it’s money well spent. 

We flew three staff from Gladstone to Brisbane for one day of training, flying home, with the knowledge gained we knew it was money well spent. 

It was informative, practical and perfect for my business, I highly recommend it.

Maddi Staader - Quality Air

Refreshing my knowledge with WordPress has never been so enjoyable.

Being shown all the back end skills by a professional who definitely knows what he was talking about (love your work Ben) really helped me to get back into the swing of running a website.

Informative and easy to keep pace with, I would definitely recommend this course to my colleagues.

Chelsea van Riet, Marketing Consultant

I was impressed that Ben took the course himself as I imagine he is a busy man!
