Take back control of your company website.

Do your website change requests seem to have fallen into a black hole? Unfortunately, you’re not the only one. Most employees do not have the knowledge required to make informed decisions about digital assets. Sometimes they end up outsourcing these important decisions to a third party.

Lack of in-house knowledge creates a costly dependency upon website developers.

Remove the middle man with WordPress Training. Your team will be equipped with the knowledge and skills they need to run, maintain, and update the company’s website–all without having to deal with poor communication from third parties.

What to expect from WordPress training

If you’re looking for a lengthy PowerPoint presentation and generic handouts, this probably isn’t the best option for you. When you book WordPress training, be prepared for an interactive, hands-on experience.

  • Get access to resources for a stronger foundation and preparation.
  • Two intensive, one-on-one sessions lasting 4-hours each.
  • Receive the video recordings of your training sessions for review at your convenience (available only with virtual training.)
  • Receive an additional 2 months of access to your instructor for follow-up questions and consultation.

Get started with one-on-one WordPress training

Step 1: Let’s talk about your goals

First things first. We’ll discuss your website goals and challenges. Understanding what you want to accomplish helps us customize your individual WordPress training for your unique needs. Already know WordPress basics? Great! Your training experience will be more advanced. This first conversation is also a great time to ask any additional questions you have about the process.

Step 2: Set a Date

We’ll get things off the ground by securing a spot on our calendar. Once we have the training date(s) decided, we will provide a payment link via email. You will also get some valuable resources based on your unique goals to tide you over until the big day.

Step 3: Learn by Doing

We are big proponents of kinetic learning – aka, learning by doing! And since you’re seeking some personalized training, it’s pretty safe to assume you’d like that kind of atmosphere too. We’ll meet in-person or via GoToMeeting as you are guided through the steps of managing WordPress.

From the beginner to the Jedi — there’s something for every level of WordPress student.

Those who have ever searched for any type of online course have likely come across Udemy. It’s a smorgasbord of courses created by a variety of users. Udemy consists of thousands of WordPress online courses that can teach you everything you need to know about the platform.
Learn how to use WordPress at the beginner level or become an expert in no time. From step-by-step website creation guidance to WordPress plugin development courses, you will end up feeling confident about managing your website.

This is a fabulous course, and I would it give it six stars if such a rating were available! Everything is very clearly explained, and Andy promptly answers any question you might have. If you are interested in using and learning WordPress, you owe it to yourself to take this outstanding course.

— Testimonial from Robert Weiser, WordPress for Beginners – Master WordPress Quickly

You’ll find that all the courses range in quality and price. My suggestion? Sort by Most Reviewed when searching for a class — about WordPress or anything else.

WordPress.tv

On WordPress.tv you’ll have access to hundreds of free recordings of in-person classes.

If you’re looking for an inexpensive way to acquire knowledge from tons of instructors, this is worth checking out.

A monthly membership to Lynda will give you access to thousands of video tutorials. A deep-dive into their content equips students with what they need to succeed. Check out presentations, highlights, and behind-the-scenes looks into WordPress development.

From setting up a domain and profile to installing plugins and creating custom themes, this course will show you everything you need to know to create a blog or website using WordPress.

— Shawn Hayes a web designer on WordPress Essential Training

It’s a comprehensive resource with high-quality videos and a huge database of subjects. If spending more time learning is on your New Year’s Resolution list, Lynda can help.

WP 101

Many people feel that community engagement is an important aspect of learning. If you study best with others, you might really like WP 101.

Stop spending hours trying to find tutorials on WordPress training. WP 101’s tutorial videos are professionally produced so you can learn how to create and manage your own website in just hours. From setting up plugins and WordPress themes to SEO, you can learn everything you need to get your site up and running successfully.

The difference at WP101 is that the entire team behind it is focused on education. They’re focused on making sure that you can learn. And to that end, the videos have a completely different feel… one that I think you’re going to appreciate.

— Chris Lema, Blogger, Speaker, Coach

Once you watch their screencasts, you can head over to the forum to get clarification on anything you don’t understand.

WordPress Lessons

This compilation isn’t a traditional set of courses. Rather, it’s a collection of straightforward tutorials from WordPress itself.

The WordPress Lessons website is fairly easy to navigate, since it’s the classic WordPress white, along with a bunch of links with clear labels. Start with WordPress for Beginners and work your way all the way up to Website Development.

— Joe Warnimont

Every beginner needs to know about WordPress Lessons. From learning how to write a blog and add images to writing code and applying custom fields to a post, you’ll have all the WordPress training resources you would want. It’s a standard for anyone running a site and needing skills to overcome specific issues.

Team Treehouse

Team Treehouse is one of the most popular ways for beginners to learn WordPress. You’ll learn at your own pace, and the library is overflowing with tutorials and videos. Coding challenges and quizzes keep you engaged throughout the WordPress courses.

Most of this learning took place within the past 6 months, the time I’ve been learning with Treehouse. I’ve devoured their content. Massive chunks of it. I’ve designed, built and launched over 50 unique websites for myself, founded a freelance company, mastered 6 separate CMSs, conquered HTML and CSS and use preprocessors wherever I can. I’ve become comfortable with JavaScript, PHP and Ruby. I’ve used frameworks like jQuery, AngularJS, Meteor, Sinatra, Rails and Ionic. I’ve gotten my head around the Git workflow, the command line, how databases function, as well as built an entire iPhone app around a JSON REST API. I’ve learned by doing.

— Tyler Van Der Hoeven, Freelance Web Developer

As you can see, there’s much more to learn than just WordPress here. Commit to learning for 30 minutes a day for a hundred days to transform your life and enhance your knowledge. Team Treehouse offers WordPress training courses so you can create and run your own website, independently. Once you’ve learned that platform, you can study building iPhone apps, and coding with CSS!

You made it this far!

The value of learning WordPress is higher than ever. The WordPress courses above are a great place to start. Whether you have never used WordPress before or you want to advance your skills, these WordPress training courses allow you to learn what you need when it’s convenient for you.

Learn from hundreds of engaging WordPress tutorials to help you overcome issues and develop a website you’re proud of. I invested in learning WordPress for the same reason you’re here today: independence.

For me, I wanted the independence to transition from selling for other people to selling my own material.

For you, independence may mean something different. Maybe you want to:

  • Save money by not having to hire someone to do this for you.
  • Break free from a reliance on an unresponsive marketing agency.
  • Handle this responsibility that’s been handed to you by your boss.

My path to mastering WordPress led me down a road of trial and error, a bad experience with an affordable website designer, launching my own web design agency, and meeting all kinds of business owners.

Your journey may look a bit different, but I hope I can help you end up at a similar destination: independent mastery over this powerful platform.

Let’s take a look at how we’ll help you get there. Contact us to create and manage your dream website today!

Is virtual WordPress Training different?

Virtual WordPress Training
I am viewing your screen

We get this question all the time!  It’s true… virtual training can be the wrong choice if your verbal communication skills are below average. After all, we are not able to see your facial expressions during virtual training. Instead, we rely on the words you say and your tone of voice.
The main advantage of virtual training is this:

you get a video recording of your training!

If you choose the virtual class format, you see my screen, hear my voice, and are able to ask me questions. But, mostly, I’m viewing your screen because you are doing all of the work! You’ll get personalized class information in advance and no one else will be included in the training.

Here’s what Emily Journey has to say about her own first experience  with virtual training:
“My first experience with virtual training was not as the instructor but as the student. In 2011, I hired an expert to teach me about Search Engine Optimization. During our virtual training sessions, I was impressed with how easily we communicated.
Despite my initial hesitations about virtual training, I am thankful that I took the plunge. I know it can seem “not quite as good” as face-to-face learning. I wondered:

  • Could I really learn this way?
  • Would I get as much value from the training?

Thankfully, I didn’t let my doubts get the best of me. That virtual training experience not only changed the way I did business – it changed my life.”

Do your website change requests seem to have fallen into a black hole? Unfortunately, you’re not the only one. Most employees do not have the knowledge required to make informed decisions about digital assets. Sometimes they end up outsourcing these important decisions to a third party.

Lack of in-house knowledge creates a costly dependency upon website developers.

Remove the middle man with WordPress Training. Your team will be equipped with the knowledge and skills they need to run, maintain, and update the company’s website–all without having to deal with poor communication from third parties.

What to expect from one-on-one WordPress training

Virtual WordPress Trainer
WordPress Trainer, Rachel Pfanz

If you’re looking for a lengthy PowerPoint presentation and generic handouts, our way of teaching probably isn’t the best approach for you. When you book  in-person WordPress training with us, be prepared for an interactive, hands-on experience.

  • Get access to resources for a stronger foundation and preparation.
  • Two intensive, one-on-one sessions lasting 4-hours each.
  • Receive the video recordings of your training sessions for review at your convenience (available only with virtual training.)
  • Receive an additional 60 days of access to your instructor for follow-up questions and consultation.

Here’s how to get started

Step 1: Let’s talk about your goals

First things first. We’ll discuss your website goals and challenges. Understanding what you want to accomplish helps us customize your individual WordPress training for your unique needs. Already know WordPress basics? Great! Your training experience will be more advanced. This first conversation is also a great time to ask any additional questions you have about the process.

Step 2: Set a Date

We’ll get things off the ground by securing a spot on our calendar. Once we have the training date(s) decided, we will provide a payment link via email. You will also get some valuable resources based on your unique goals to tide you over until the big day.

Step 3: Learn by Doing

We are big proponents of kinetic learning – aka, learning by doing! And since you’re seeking some personalized training, it’s pretty safe to assume you’d like that kind of atmosphere too. We’ll meet in-person or via Zoom as you are guided through the steps to manage your WordPress website.

Give your team the skills they need to be successful

Have your employees ever gotten frustrated or behind schedule due to an unresponsive website developer or agency? You’re not the only one with this concern. Does your sales department consider your company website a valuable asset in closing sales? Too many teams lack internal command of the company website, which affects your bottom line. This lack of control means your staff may have to wait days (or even weeks) to implement changes or new campaigns.

With our staff WordPress training, Emily Journey can help you remove the middle man and give your team control over updates. Each of your team members will be equipped with the knowledge and skills needed to run, maintain, and update your company website–all without having to deal with poor communication from third parties.
