# WordFest: Welcome to the Community and Your New Career

The first cohort of adult students to learn WordPress in [Code Differently (opens in a new tab)](http://codedifferently.com)‘s Return Ready program had an opportunity to speak at WordFest’s first event. We shared what it is like to teach and learn WordPress. Tune in for a quick overview on the WordPress curriculum I’ve created.

I can’t say how amazing this event and the entire onboarding sequence was. By pre-recording the main presentation and focusing Q&A on real-time, I was able to remove the stage fright from myself and students. We’re quite used to living in Zoom these days.
