This course focuses on task training as well as the open source methods and how they’re used in WordPress community organizing. This gives us a chance to cover what we do as well as explaining the “why” behind how we do things. We hope this will help our new supporters feel more confident in the work they do on this team.

Investing your time helps the Community Team make the WordPress open source project a better place to be. We couldn’t do this without you!
