Workshops at WordCamp Pune are designed for individuals who want to learn by building, testing, and trying things out for themselves. These are not passive sessions. Every workshop is structured to be interactive, practical, and guided by experienced facilitators.
Participants are encouraged to bring their laptops and actively work through exercises during the session. Whether you are new to WordPress or have been working with it for years, these workshops focus on real skills you can apply after the event.
Each workshop runs for a fixed duration and is supported by multiple facilitators to ensure participants get help when they need it. Explore the workshops below and select the ones that align with what you want to learn or improve.
How the Workshop Format Works
The format is simple and hands-on. We will run six workshops across three rooms, with three sessions before lunch and three after. Each workshop runs for two hours, giving enough time to learn, experiment, and build something meaningful.
Each room is set up with round tables, chairs, and charging points so attendees can work comfortably on their laptops. Facilitators will guide participants step by step, stay engaged throughout the session, and help them complete a real task by the end of the workshop.
Below is the list of workshops we have planned and are inviting facilitators for.
