Push your business acumen to the next level with a WordPress-based site that will help your leads and sales skyrocket. This course is designed for both small business owners and the self-employed, and focuses on mastering the WordPress basics in order to create visually appealing, fully functional websites that will bring in potential customers in no time at all.

Create Websites With Ease
In a world where the estimated total number of websites in the world has exceeded 1 billion, it’s easy to see why mastering the creation of them should be at the forefront of every business brain. The Internet is the powerhouse of information, and by creating your own websites you can own your niche in next to no time. For business owners, it’s not practical to learn all of the ins and outs of complex website design, but that doesn’t mean that you will have to outsource your website build to a professional. With WordPress, you can learn the fundamentals yourself, and create fantastic websites that use this open source tool and Content Management System (CMS) with professional results.
Use WordPress with Confidence
The course can be studied online, through our courseware, meaning that you can study as and when you are able to. Covering almost all of the WordPress interface, as well as its uses for small businesses, it will help you to build confidence and expertise as you progress. You will be able to apply your knowledge practically, by actively building a website for a client, and will learn all of the major build concepts that come together to produce the final website. The syllabus is broken down into seven modules, which will ensure that the course materials are manageable at every step of the way.
