Wordpress website course?

[David Hust]

A number of schools teach web design using frameworks like React or Sveltekit. Does your school have a course for making Wordpress websites or CMS websites in general? The idea of being able to handoff a website to a customer and they can update it, seems more reasonable for high school students and businesses.

Students would learn how to make a basic Wordpress site:

• host it locally
  
• publish it to a hosting site
• use themes like Elemental or Divi
• add plugins (but not too many)
• make websites for local businesses
  
• learn the basics of HTML, CSS, and JS

Hi - Our school does not have a class like this, but I wanted to pass on a kindle book that is free TODAY only with great WordPress tutorials. Your students can get it for free today also and self-study it if they are interested.

The author (Dr. Andy Williams) is an instructor for WordPress on Udemy and the courses are fairly inexpensive.

Thanks for the resources. I'm good with the content, I was looking more to see if anyone has taught it, did they think it was worth making the class, any ways you have connected with customers, what things worked best for students, any issues with IT and hosting.

Thanks.
