White Blvd, Building B, Suite 202B, Austin, Texas 78704.We are happy to 
announce that we will open the Hands On Summer Classroom Sessions with ‘*A 
Sane Approach to Social Media for Business*‘. We will follow up, in July, 
with ‘*Taking Money – What You Need to know before You Install eCommerce’*
 and *‘What you need to know to Install and Configure WooCommerce.’  *Hands 
On WordPress is  currently working with several other subject matter

 Saturday 
June 27, 2015  —9am – 3pm — with lunch provided*


Social Media experts, Kristen Shepard and Corrin Foster, have agreed to 
lead the class and have structured the curricula to answer many of the 
questions our members have asked about integrating social media with 
WordsPress to increase site traffic and expand brand recognition.  Kristen 
and Corrin have developed a sane approach to building and managing an 
online presence that will engage customers, streamline communication, and 
keep up in an increasingly competitive world. This class will help you 
determine which social media is best for your business, develop a plan of 
action, and leave you feeling empowered, rather than overwhelmed, with a 
customized plan that fits in with your busy operations.

<http://handsonwp.com/course_catalog/taking-money-ecommerce/> — Friday July

Adding eCommerce to a site is more that just choosing and installing an 
eCommerce plugin. Your instructor, Toyin Akinmusuru is an experienced 
WordPress Developer and an eCommerce expert.  He will discuss how your 
business model type, selling a physical product vs a digital product, 
affects how you define your requirements and how your eCommerce site is 
structured. It will also influence the configuration of your eCommerce 
Plugin. Toyin will cover setting up shipping and tax requirements and focus 
on the critical security issues and solutions involved in “Taking Money.” 
By the end of this class you will leave with a through understanding of how 
to successfully integrate eCommerce into your site.

This one-day class will give you the information and resources you need to 
install and configure WooCommerce on your WordPress site. With over seven 
million installs, even before Automattic acquired WooCommerce, it was fast 
becoming the eCommerce top solution for WordPress. If you are ready to 
learn more about how to correctly install and configure WooCommerce on your 
existing WordPress site, or start a new online venture, this six-hour 
course is for you.


Thank you to all the folks who have stayed in touch by phone and email, 
asking when our Hands On WordPress classroom sessions would be available 
again. HubAustin offers a great training space and we are looking forward 
to teaching an expanded WordPress curriculum there.
