WordPress Training Team Launches First Learn WordPress Course Cohort
The WordPress Training Team has exciting news for developers looking to enhance their skills and connect with a community of like-minded individuals. They are launching their first-ever Learn WordPress Course Cohort, a social learning method that allows participants to go through the learning process together, engaging in synchronous group activities. This unique approach fosters a sense of community and connection among participants, encouraging support and collaboration.
The inaugural course cohort will focus on the topic of “Developing your first WordPress Block.” This course is specifically designed for first-time block developers who have never built a block before. Over the course of six weeks, participants will delve into various aspects of block development, gaining valuable knowledge and skills. The topics covered include:
Week 1: Introduction, preparing your environment for block development.
Week 2: Using create-block to scaffold your first block, Internationalisation.
Week 3: Block styling, block supports, block controls.
Week 4: Block attributes, block components.
Week 5: Interacting with WordPress data.
Week 6: Dynamic blocks.
To ensure an optimal learning experience, the cohort is limited to only 14 participants. Selection will be done randomly from the pool of applicants who meet the requirements. These requirements include having a WordPress.org profile, a Make Slack account, and availability every Wednesday at 8:00 UTC for the duration of the course.
Given the anticipated popularity of this course on beginning block development, the Training Team has committed to maintaining a waiting list for those who are not selected in the first round. This presents an incredible opportunity for developers who have yet to explore block building but thrive in a more social learning environment. Future cohort courses on the same topic will be scheduled once this initial cohort is complete.
