  • What

    What?

    So what will I learn? I could simply list a whole bunch of stuff, however the best way to answer this question would be to say that you will learn what you want to learn. My main focus will be to  help you find solutions and guide you through the learning process based on your own individual needs. Understandably WordPress will form the basis of this learning, in addition you will also be introduced to other relevant subjects, like SEO, CSS, FTP, Graphics Design, Marketing, Social Media. Personally the best way to approach this question is similar to joining a gym or weight class, you only get out of it what you put in… only you can loose the weight or build muscle tissue. In outline during every session you will be coached and taught the lessons you need to allow you to progress, during the remaining days of the week it’s up to you. If you went to the gym once a week and spent the rest of the week eating cake no doubt you would not see any real progress. WordPress Wednesday is not one of those “Learn WordPress in a Day“, type of courses, however I do run these, the Wednesday Workshops are primarily for those who cant attend a full days training, or those who prefer their learning to be delivered in smaller chunks.

  • Why

    Why?

    There could be any number of questions related to why? For example Why WordPress? Why not simply teach Web design. One of the major benefits is that WordPress offers you an opportunity to create, build and manage your own website with very little knowledge often associated with the concept of web design. It has also evolved over the years, once simply know as a blogging platform WordPress has grown in popularity not to mention if functionality, WordPress is quite simply one of the best Content Management Systems (CMS), used today by many of the top designers worldwide.

    You could also be asking the question? “Why should I attend these evening courses, when you and others offer a one day course?”

    OK one day courses are fine, and many people leave satisfied and capable of running with what they have learnt. However there is more to learning WordPress than cramming everything into one day. Many people can leave these events totally overwhelmed, and although many we do offer additional support, from my experience, learning a subject in bite sized chunks is far more effective. It also means that as a teacher you can focus more on the learners individual needs. 

  • How

    How?

    Perhaps the immediate question based on How? is quite simply how much will it cost?

    The sessions are primarily based on you attending a number of weekly workshops, each session will cost just £35.00 and you can attend as many as you feel you need, to meet your personal requirements.  The general concept of the course is to take you from a complete beginner to intermediate level.  Assisting you in building your website, while also offering advice on many other aspects of Internet Marketing.

    Please note that WordPress only constitutes part of the overall instruction.  You will learn much more about Internet Marketing, SEO, Social Media, Graphic Design, Email Marketing. Also guidance on how to monetise and make money from your Website content.
