Announcement

Weโ€™re considering issuing certificates specifically for course cohort students. Unlike automated course completion certificatesโ€”which can sometimes be misusedโ€”cohorts are different. In a cohort, students must actively participate in regular classes, complete assessments, and pass an exam before earning a certificate.

WordPress Block Editor Basics in Bengali: Course Cohort Successfully Completed

We are delighted to announce the successful completion of the โ€œBlockBlock Block is the abstract term used to describe units of markup that, composed together, form the content or layout of a webpage using the WordPress editor. The idea combines concepts of what in the past may have achieved with shortcodes, custom HTML, and embed discovery into a single consistent API and user experience. Editor Basicsโ€ Course Cohort in Bengali, organized through Learn WordPress. This cohort marked an important step toward making WordPress education more accessible for Bengali-speaking learners and strengthening our local WordPress learning community.

The journey began with an overwhelming response from the community. More than 30 participants showed interest and enrolled in the cohort, reflecting a growing curiosity and enthusiasm for learning modern WordPress tools, especially the Block Editor. Participants joined with diverse backgroundsโ€”some completely new to WordPress, others looking to upgrade their skills from classic editing to block-based workflows.

As the cohort progressed, over 20 participants continued actively through at least half of the course. Balancing learning with personal and professional commitments is never easy, and we truly appreciate the dedication shown by everyone who stayed engaged, attended sessions, and practiced along the way. Their consistency helped create a collaborative and encouraging learning environment where questions, discussions, and shared discoveries were always welcome.

We are especially proud to share that more than 10 participants successfully completed the entire course cohort ๐ŸŽ‰. Completing the full course required commitment, practice, and a willingness to experimentโ€”and these learners delivered on all fronts. By the end of the cohort, participants were confidently working with the WordPress Block Editor and applying what they learned in practical ways.

Host: Muhibul Haqueย @devmuhib

Coโ€‘host: Noruzzaman @noruzzaman

Participants: @mdniajm, @abduremon, @mdfarokahmed, @mhasanmeet, @rizviahamed, @bmnazmul, @raselsheikh, @huzaifaalmesbah, @imrakibul, @hossainmonir

Throughout the course, participants built multiple layouts using the Block Editor, including structured pages and content sections using coreCore Core is the set of software required to run WordPress. The Core Development Team builds WordPress. blocks. They explored layout techniques, block customization, and best practices for creating clean, flexible, and reusable designs. This hands-on approach helped learners move beyond theory and gain real confidence in building content with blocks.

One of the most exciting outcomes of this cohort was the strong interest participants expressed in Block Theme Development. Many learners are eager to go deeperโ€”understanding how block themes work, how patterns are created, and how full site editing can be used to build modern WordPress websites. This curiosity shows how impactful beginner-friendly education can be in guiding learners toward more advanced WordPress contribution and development paths.

Encouraged by the success of this cohort and the enthusiasm from participants, we are planning more course cohorts in the future. Our goal is to continue offering structured, beginner-friendly, and community-driven learning experiences in Bengali, covering both foundational and advanced WordPress topics.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who participated, supported, and contributed to this cohort. Your engagement made this learning journey meaningful and successful. We look forward to learning together again in upcoming cohorts and continuing to grow the Bengali WordPress community.

New GitHub Issue: Topic Idea

I have experience working with the Training Team!

Thanks for joining! Depending on your interests, there are a few ways you can get involved. For each of the tasks below, the team handbook should help you with process specifics. But if you have any questions, feel free to reach out!

Content Creation

Are you interested in creating content? If so, then creating content related to WordPress 6.9.

Content Translation

Are you interested in translating content? If so, then translating content related to theย Localization Foundation projectย is our priority today. Do you speak Spanish, Japanese, German, French, Hindi, or Italian? Join us in localizing content for these languages, along with 8 others. We also have courses focused on onboarding contributors that will assist in the WordPress mentorship program:

You can learn how to get started inย content localization on this handbook page.

Content Reviews

Are you interested in editing content? If so, then reviewing content waiting to be published is our priority today.

Start by finding a piece of content to review in our content development board.ย This GitHub viewย has filtered all content waiting for reviews before it is published. Follow the teamโ€™sย Guidelines for reviewing contentย and leave your reviews right there in GitHub.

Subject Matter Expert

Aย subject-matter expertย is someone who has extensive knowledge in a particular field or area and can provide advice, guidance, and direction in that subject. If you would like to help vet topics, please visit theย Vetting Topic Ideas handbook page.

Triage Developer Issues

Are you a developer interested in working on issues for the Learn website? If so, then working through ourย Website Development project boardย is our priority today.

Start by reviewing issues โ€œIn Reviewโ€. Any help you can provide regarding issues โ€œIn Progressโ€ would be great, too. But in general, any attention you can give to any issue would be much appreciated.

If there are enough interested Developers, then we can also create a developer-focused working group so that they can focus on related issues.

Share your thoughts or ideas on how the Training Team can collaborate more effectively with other Make WordPress Teams, such as Marketing, Documentation, and others.
