In this workshop you will learn:
• WordPress basics
• Instructions on installing WordPress on computers or servers
• What is WordPress Core and how to add functionality
• Mastering the concept of Posts and Pages
• The difference between wordpress.org and wordpress.com
• Knowing WordPress security issues and how to make periodic backups

She is also involved with other projects including developing software for patient education. Examples of some of her WordPress sites include: rachelhopkin.com, brooklinesoccer.org, and pdc-staging.zw5h9lfd-liquidwebsites.com. Robin has also taught software technology at area colleges and adult education centers.
