WordPress powers more than 40% of the web and is already part of digital learning in schools and colleges across Europe and beyond. We believe the open web starts in the classroom. That’s why we want to help educators and students learn with professional tools that reflect the skills used in the workplace.
Through their educators, students can access one year of free professional hosting, a custom domain, and the tools to build real projects. There is no cost to the institution, helping remove financial barriers to learning.
The program brings together web creation, employability, and digital citizenship. Students learn to build and publish online, use AI thoughtfully, and develop transferable skills on an open web built on open source software.
We can also offer online training at scale, with microcredentials and certifications coming soon. Other opportunities include internships that contribute to the WordPress project and in-person events at educational institutions.
If your education community would like to get involved, write to us and let’s get started.
