A new WordPress Campus Connect handbook page has been updated with information about the event for event organizers and supports. As a reminder, The WordPress Campus Connect initiative is a community program aimed at supporting the next generation of WordPress users and developers by offering valuable, free, and easily accessible learning opportunities for all.
Since the official announcement in May, the community has successfully hosted two WordPress Campus Connect events (see WordPress Campus Connect Ribera del Duero 2025), and there are four more events in the planning stages for this year.
Program Managers and Event Supporters, please be aware that these events will follow the WordCamp process. Additionally, we are offering group mentoring for organizers in the #campusconnect channel in the WordPress.org Slack, so kindly direct anyone in need of mentorship to this channel.
What’s next for WordPress Campus Connect?
- We are currently conducting a poll for a new logo!
- Once the logo is selected, we will develop branded template assets for organizers, including:
- Presentation Slides
- Participation Certificates
- WordPress Campus Connect theme for events and student site
Furthermore, an update to the WordPress Campus Connect handbook page for WordPress Student Clubs is underway. The WordPress Campus Connect Organizer form has been updated with the question, Would you like to create a WordPress student club site? to prepare for these requests.
We always welcome your feedback and suggestions as this program evolves. Please feel free to share your thoughts either in the comments below or on Slack Slack is a Collaborative Group Chat Platform https://slack.com/. The WordPress community has its own Slack Channel at https://make.wordpress.org/chat/..
