WordCamp Europe 2024 presentation recap


On June 14, I had the privilege to present the Training Team’s vision for Learn WordPress at WordCamp Europe 2024. The presentation saw an engaged audience of 300-400 people in the main hall, with many more tuning in online. I wanted to document the feedback I received here for the team to consider as we continue improving Learn WordPress.

Ideas from the community

  • Show Learn content in the WordPress dashboard.
    • Hosts would love for a way to show content right there without the user having to leave their site.
  • Provide Learn content in a way that hosts etc. can add/subtract modules as needed for their use cases.
    • Building a plugin was one idea as a way to achieve this.
  • Clarify how users can get help with the content.
    • Learn could show a call-to-action “click here for help” within content.
  • Offer a glossary so that users know what to call the things they’re learning.
    • There have been previous efforts to create a unified WordPress glossary (Slack conversation) which would be great to integrate on Learn for learners.
  • Provide certifications for learning achievements.
