Announcing 1085 & a Beginner’s WordPress Workshop

When the weekly coding sessions were announced, I also alluded to courses, or workshops, that will be taking place at the Launch Pad in Downtown Scranton. I’m very excited  to announce the first one, as well as the venture behind it.

First, the Workshop: This is one that’s been requested to me personally a few times so I wanted to make it happen as soon as I could. It’s called The Beginner’s Guide to WordPress and it will cover what WordPress is and how to use it, from adding posts to managing users and everything in between. The Workshop will be July 10th, from 6:30-8:30pm and will cost $20. For an extra $27, you can get access to 23 intro videos for WordPress, reinforcing what we talk about in the workshop.

Next is the venture I’ve started to support these workshops, which is called 1085 (https://1085.co/). 1085 is a place for teaching and learning. It’s a place that organizes Workshops & sells Books, and there’s a lot more planned, all in downtown Scranton. You can read more here. Throughout the summer, there will be more workshops and resources added. I’m really excited for what’s in store, and you should be too!
