The WordPress training team helps people learn to use, extend, and contribute to WordPress through synchronous and asynchronous learning as well as downloadable lesson plans for instructors to use in live environments, via learn.wordpress.org.
If you enjoy helping people learn how to use and build stuff for WordPress, immediately stop what you’re doing and join our team!
Regardless of your skillset, you can help! We need people to write, copyedit, test, audit, connect, and review our lesson plans. Find out how to get started.

Save, but do not publish
Leave a message in Training
This will allow anyone to pick up and continue the work, track revisionsRevisionsThe WordPress revisions system stores a record of each saved draft or published update. The revision system allows you to see what changes were made in each revision by dragging a slider (or using the Next/Previous buttons). The display indicates what has changed in each revision., and set media images on Learn siteLearn siteThe Training Team publishes its completed lesson plans at https://learn.wordpress.org/ which is often referred to as the "Learn" site. for others to access.
