WordPress is only easy if you know how to use it.

—Emily Journey, Director of Instruction

Have you ever felt stuck waiting on a website manager or agency just to make a small change? When you don’t control your site, even minor updates can take days—or weeks.

Meanwhile…

Your time, your budget, and sometimes your reputation are on hold while you wait.

You don’t have to operate that way anymore.

Private WordPress classes in Newark give you the skills to handle updates, content changes, and day-to-day website management on your own timeline. Instead of submitting tickets and waiting, you’ll learn exactly what to do — step by step — inside your WordPress dashboard.

We work with Newark business owners and teams throughout Essex County, offering both in-person sessions and virtual WordPress classes depending on what works best for you.

Who These WordPress Classes Are For

Our WordPress classes in Newark are designed for people who want clarity and control—not more confusion.

One-on-one WordPress Training

Need a customized, one-on-one training experience? Our private WordPress training in Newark is tailored specifically to you and your website. Meet virtually or in person with one of our WordPress experts and walk step-by-step through exactly what you need to know to manage, update, and build your site with confidence.

This option is ideal for:

Team WordPress Training

If two or more staff members need to manage and update your website, team WordPress training in Newark gives your group the skills to work confidently and consistently. Emily meets with your team to teach WordPress from basic to advanced levels, customized to your organization’s specific goals.

This option works well for:

  • Key staff members responsible for website updates
  • In-house marketing teams
  • IT departments

If your goal is independence—not theory—this is the right place to start. Here’s what your WordPress training experience will actually look like.

What to Expect from Your 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.
  • If you choose virtual training, receive the video recordings of your training sessions for review at your convenience.
  • Receive an additional 60 days of access to your instructor for follow-up questions and consultation.

Have you ever felt stuck waiting for a website manager just to make a small update? Or hesitated to change something on your site because you weren’t quite sure what might break? You’re not alone. Many business owners and professionals rely heavily on outside help—not because they want to, but because no one has ever shown them how WordPress actually works.

When you don’t feel confident inside your own website, even simple updates can feel risky. That uncertainty can slow down promotions, delay announcements, and create unnecessary frustration.

With one-on-one WordPress training, Emily Journey works directly with you—inside your actual website—to remove the guesswork. You’ll gain the knowledge and practical skills to confidently update, manage, and maintain your WordPress site without relying on third parties or waiting for someone else to make changes.

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 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 decided on the training date(s), 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 of managing WordPress.

Stop struggling with WordPress and learn faster.

Have your employees ever gotten frustrated or behind schedule due to an unresponsive website manager 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 middleman 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.

Step 1:  Let's talk about your goals

Before we begin, we'll discuss your goals and website challenges. Understanding what you want to accomplish helps us customize your company's WordPress training to your unique needs. This is also a great time to ask any additional questions about the process. Some of your questions are answered here: frequently asked questions about WordPress training »

Step 2:  Schedule the training

We'll find the perfect times for your staff to get together for training. Once that's settled, we will arrange for payment. After payment, expect to receive some valuable resources based on your company's unique goals to prepare you for the training.

Step 3:  Put it into action

During your small group WordPress training, we walk through your company website. First, we'll identify the items that are common to every WordPress website. Then, we'll get into the unique challenges and structure of your specific website. We will determine what is really possible with your website. And, we will look at workarounds for dealing with difficult areas in your website. Come prepared to get involved, take notes, and absorb a lot! Our interactive lessons will equip your team with exactly what they need to make informed decisions and work with confidence.

Empowered me to rely on myself

“I did the training virtually from Denver and had an extremely positive experience. I learned all the little details I was missing in order to connect the website development dots. The training was invaluable because it empowered me to rely on myself to achieve our organizational website goals as opposed to depending on our developer.”

Rebecca Patterson, Development Consultant
