The Training team is using the Sprint method to determine what we are working on and to determine our timeframe for delivery.
What is a Sprint?
[Sprints] are fixed length events of one month or less to create consistency. A new Sprint starts immediately after the conclusion of the previous Sprint.
Sprint Content on Learn Goals
Theme: How to contribute to the WordPress Project with screenshots and videos (guidelines for how content within screenshots and videos appear).
Think about these with as much consideration toward accessibility as possible.
Ideally, these guidelines could be adopted by other teams as well, turned into a video series of workshops, and help onboard others into several parts of the project. Additionally, it lifts needing to maintain this from our team handbook into content on Learn.
