We have taken what people love about our WordPress training and have taken it online.

People love that it builds up from the basics to be really focused on what business owners, entrepreneurs, marketing managers and marketing coordinators need to be effective webmasters. We keep class sizes small enough (typically 8-12) so that one or two trainers can help look after all attendees throughout. We’ve learned that most people like the training to be non-technical, i.e. we do discuss code, but this is not a coding course. This is about managing and building your WordPress Website for your business or blog.

Use the form below to enquire and we will contact you to confirm your place, the dates and arrange payment. Online booking coming soon.

Why WordPress?

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 could leave you feeling like it was a waste of time and money.

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. Some 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.

Why do people come to our WordPress Training?

People who come to our training usually fit into one of the following groups:

• Do you want a new website? Small business owners who want to create their own basic WordPress website after the training day.
• Need to upgrade your existing website? If you want to move your existing website across to WordPress this is a great way to get started.
• Had a WordPress website built by a website designer or a friend (of a friend) and you need some guidance on getting the most out of it.

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.

You will learn how to:

1. Build your very own WordPress website

2. Set-up your WordPress website for use as a Personal Blog or a Business Website with a Blog

3. The difference between pages and posts

4. Add and edit pages, learn about the options and features of the standard WordPress website

5. Install a standard theme to give your website a design layout

6. How to manage widgets and menus

7. Customise the theme to add a header and colours

8. How to backup and upgrade your website

9. At the end of Session Two there will be time to work on your own WordPress website. Ben will finish up the group session by addressing any queries you may have. We find this makes sure that everything you’ve learned aligns with your goals and sets you up for success.

City Based Training Replaced With LIVE Online Training

What you need…

• Have a computer to work on
• Ensure you have Google Chrome
• When you get the zoom invite from us please check you can run zoom
• You will need a mic so we can converse quickly and efficiently
• It’d be wise to have a camera* so you can get the most from the online meeting
• Please check that you can MUTE your mic, Ben will ask everyone to be on mute and you can unmute when you have a question
• A super learning mindset, be ready to ask questions
• Bring some patience too. Remember in these changed times attendees may have kids in the background, that’s okay! That’s what the mute button is for 😉

*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.
