Social media and WordPress skills for small businesses

Whether you're looking to learn how to design and build a website from the ground up or want to harness the power of social media to promote your business, we offer two online courses tailored to suit your goals.

About the Online WordPress for beginners course

The Online Design and Build a Website for Beginners course guides students through setting up website hosting and creating a site tailored to their needs. You'll explore layout options and learn how to organize and present content in a clear, meaningful way.

The Online Social Media for Small Businesses course is designed for students looking to learn how to leverage social media for business. You’ll explore the key social media platforms, understand how social media can enhance marketing efforts, and learn how to create and manage an effective social media strategy.

About the online Social Media for Small Businesses course

The Online Social Media for Small Businesses course will teach students how to effectively use social media to engage with different audiences and promote business growth.

The course is ideal for those with no prior experience—no previous website setup is required. The course will be delivered via Microsoft Teams. Please note students will need to purchase a domain name and hosting (around £50 per year) separately from the course fee. A credit or debit card will be needed during the first session to complete this setup.
