Learning the ins and outs of the WordPress themes and the Dashboard isn’t a no-brainer, but it’s something you can get the hang of pretty much on your own. However, there will inevitably come a time when you think, “Shoot. I need to learn to code.” Navigating the mass of online tutorials (of varying quality) and the sea of code schools is no joke.

You will leave knowing exactly what languages to learn to take your WordPress skills to the next level and with an inventory of resources for learning on your own.
