Suggested Workshop Agenda
Below is an example of a multi-day agenda, which some organizers choose when running an extended Campus Connect program:
- Day 1: Introduction to WordPress & Setup
- Day 2: Hands-on Website Building
This is only a sample format. Organizers are encouraged to adapt the agenda based on their capacity.
A single-day or half-day workshop covering the fundamentals of WordPress and basic hands-on activities is perfectly acceptable, especially when launching Campus Connect for the first time. The goal is to make the event practical and impactful, regardless of duration.
