Regardless of your skill set, you can help! We need people to write, copyedit, test, audit, connect, and review our lesson plans. Find out how to get started.
The Training Team meets weekly to coordinate tasks and review progress. We meet regularly in SlackSlack Slack is a Collaborative Group Chat Platform https://slack.com/. The WordPress community has its own Slack Channel at https://make.wordpress.org/chat/., an online chatroom. A few times per year we hold our meeting by video conferencing.
We use a shared Trello board to manage our current projects, progress, and needs. You can see what the team is currently working on and items that are available and need a hand.
Our lesson plans and supporting materials are written and stored in GitHub.
