News ### **󠀁[Meeting Note Takers](https://make.wordpress.org/training/handbook/about/team-roles/)󠁿** Here is our current note-taker roster: * September 2nd – [@vasantrajput](https://profiles.wordpress.org/vasantrajput/) * September 9th – [@jaydipgoswami](https://profiles.wordpress.org/jaydipgoswami/) * September 16th – [@nikunj8866](https://profiles.wordpress.org/nikunj8866/) * September 23th – [@nishitajoshi](https://profiles.wordpress.org/nishitajoshi/) * September 30th – [@vishitshah](https://profiles.wordpress.org/vishitshah/) * October 7th – [@sonaliprajapati](https://profiles.wordpress.org/sonaliprajapati/) ### Looking for feedback * We’ve had a lot of discussions around the certification process, but now it’s time to move things forward. We’re considering issuing certificates specifically for course cohort students. Unlike automated course completion certificates which can sometimes be misused cohorts are different. In a cohort, students must actively participate in regular classes, complete assessments, and pass an exam before earning a certificate. - We’d love your feedback to refine this process and move ahead. You can find more details here: [#3247](https://github.com/WordPress/Learn/issues/3247) ### Looking for volunteers * We’re planning to organize local workshops to make the sessions more engaging and inspiring. Whether you’re a first-time speaker or an experienced presenter, if you feel confident covering a WordPress-related topic, you’re welcome to participate. You can also choose to co-host a workshop by teaming up with someone who already has speaking experience at different events. - If you’re interested in volunteering for this task, [simply leave a comment,](https://wordpress.slack.com/archives/C02RW657Q/p1756797000268519) and we’ll provide the necessary instructions to get started. ### Update for last week’s triage squad * N/A ### Other news * The Training Team’s monthly update is now live.
