    Learn WordPressSpeakers: Muhibul Haque, Sumit Singh, Kathryn Presner

    May 30, 2024 — Are you interested in helping people learn how to use, design, or develop with WordPress – but not sure where to get started?

    The WordPress.org Training team’s Guide Program is a nifty pathway geared to helping folks take their first steps toward contributing, by matching experienced team members with new contributors. Over the course of about a month, each Guide helps a new contributor begin contributing to the Training team, in whatever area most interests them, whether it’s translating content, creating video lessons, running an online workshop, or taking notes at a weekly team meeting.

    During this informal Q&A with Training team members Sumit Singh and Muhibul Haque, you’ll learn how the Guide program works, why it’s so rewarding – both for the Guide and the new contributor – and why it might be just the thing you’ve been looking for to help you get more involved with the WordPress project.
