What WordPress is, why mobile-responsive design is non-negotiable, and how to weigh its strengths against modern AI-powered alternatives.

Where your site lives, how to choose the right host, how to build locally before you launch, and how to keep everything secure.

Your first steps inside WordPress — logging in, finding your way around the admin bar, and making sense of the Dashboard.

Before you build a single page, plan it — the project brief, the content it needs, how visitors will use it, and how it all connects.

What a post or page actually is, how to write one in the Classic Editor, how to organize it, and how to take it from draft to live.

From picking the right theme to shaping the homepage, banner, logo, and colors — all without touching a line of code.

The structural pieces that frame every page — the header up top, sidebars alongside, the footer below, and the widgets that fill them all.

Building the paths visitors actually use to get around your site — from a first menu to fitting it into your theme's layout.

What a plugin actually does, how free and paid options differ, and which plugins show up on nearly every WordPress site.

Who gets into your site, what each person can actually do once they're in, and how to fine-tune it beyond WordPress's defaults.

The building blocks under every WordPress page — enough HTML to read, write, and fix content with confidence.

How HTML gets its look — enough CSS to style elements, target the right ones, and safely tweak your theme's appearance.

A finished site is only half the job. Now it needs to be found, shared, and remembered.

The small details that make a site feel complete — easy ways to get in touch, a map to find you, richer embedded content, and a tidy, link-checked site underneath it all.

You can't improve what you can't see. Understanding who visits, how to track them, and which tool fits your site.

What you get for finishing — career support, proof of what you've learned, an income opportunity, and a community that doesn't end when the modules do.
