Make Websites Using WordPress
WordPress enables you to create and maintain a website, even if you have no web design background or knowledge of the code that makes website works. WordPress is built with HTML, CSS, and PHP, so web developers who do know code have even greater control over WordPress sites. Whether you want to create a new website/blog or manage an existing WordPress website, this class is for you.
An Essential Skill for Web Developers: 40% of Websites Use WordPress!
If you design or code websites, knowing how to use WordPress is essential as many of the websites you design or build are likely to use (or should use) WordPress. WordPress drives over 40% of all websites because it provides loads of functionality and the ability to create themes (templates) to control the look and feel and and functionality of a website. The people you build websites for will want to edit the content (text, images, etc.) and WordPress will enable them to do so without having to know coding.
In this class you’ll learn how to create pages, edit content, and see how your clients will interact with WordPress when creating and editing content. You’ll also learn how to control the layout, appearance, and functionality of WordPress sites using easy to use tools that don’t require coding knowledge, as well as when to use code for even greater control.
This course has a prerequisite
You should have basic HTML and CSS coding experience equivalent to our Web Development with HTML & CSS class.

Highly Reviewed by Our Alumni
From our hands-on training style to world-class instructors and custom-crafted curriculum, we deliver results our alumni are proud of.
I was introduced to Noble Desktop years ago by an employer. At the time, we were implementing a new workflow and there was no one on staff qualified to train the team. I was so impressed with the instructor and the class, that I signed up for additional classes on my own… everything from JavaScript to WordPress to UX/UI Design. These days the ability to remain employable is entirely dependent on the need to continually upgrade one’s skillset. No one provides better, more comprehensive (and well-documented) instruction and technical training than Noble Desktop. It’s also a great place to meet other people in my chosen field (and other industries) whom I might not have the opportunity to meet otherwise.
