WordPress allows you to create a website or blog absolutely free!!  But, if you haven't got any experience with web design this can be a bit daunting, so where do you start?

With our two day WordPress training of course!  

We will teach you how to use WordPress to set up and maintain your website or blog.  Even if you've not set up a site before, our course will guide you through the process in a step by step, logical way.  The course is very hands on, so over the two days you'll learn to use WordPress by actually building a site.
