Real contribution paths
Every session maps to a contribution you can ship: a translated string, a docs PR, a core ticket. Learning ends with a real outcome.
Live learning for the WordPress community
Folks Academy Learn to contribute. Live. From folks.
Open workshops where any folk teaches how to contribute to WordPress. Translation, core, docs, design, accessibility, and more. Attend a session, earn a badge, ship your first contribution.

Why Folks Academy
Badges that count
Attend a session to earn a learner badge on your profile. Speakers earn tiered Speaker → Mentor → Master → Legend badges.
Folks, not strangers
Sessions are taught by community members you can follow, hire, or collaborate with. The classroom is the network.
Recorded forever
Every session is recorded and published on Folks TV. Miss a session? Watch it later. Loved it? Share with a friend.
Pick your track
Every track maps to a real WordPress contribution path. Learn what fits, ship what matters.
