It brings a unified look and feel that\u2019s modern, visual, and inviting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"919\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wordpress.org\/news\/files\/2024\/07\/2-learn-1.png?resize=1024%2C919&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-17613\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wordpress.org\/news\/files\/2024\/07\/2-learn-1.png?resize=1024%2C919&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wordpress.org\/news\/files\/2024\/07\/2-learn-1.png?resize=300%2C269&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wordpress.org\/news\/files\/2024\/07\/2-learn-1.png?resize=768%2C690&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wordpress.org\/news\/files\/2024\/07\/2-learn-1.png?resize=1536%2C1379&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wordpress.org\/news\/files\/2024\/07\/2-learn-1.png?resize=2048%2C1839&amp;ssl=1 2048w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wordpress.org\/news\/files\/2024\/07\/2-learn-1.png?w=3000&amp;ssl=1 3000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Beyond its fresh aesthetic, the new Learn WordPress site prioritizes learners with a revamped user experience consistent with familiar modern learning platforms. It features a new navigation menu, eye-catching thumbnails, and search filters so you can explore and discover content quickly. The clearer and more structured layout helps you easily recognize the resources you need (courses, lessons, Online Workshops) based on your learning preferences. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Introducing Learning Pathways<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This redesign also highlights a new approach to Learn WordPress content, emphasizing what learners engage with the most. The introduction of Learning Pathways lets you grow your WordPress skills progressively. You can start with beginner essentials and then work your way through more advanced concepts at your own speed. This method lets you build a solid understanding as you move through each course. Learning Pathways are geared toward specific learners, like people using WordPress for the first time or those interested in development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"730\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wordpress.org\/news\/files\/2024\/07\/1-learn.png?resize=1024%2C730&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-17591\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wordpress.org\/news\/files\/2024\/07\/1-learn.png?resize=1024%2C730&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wordpress.org\/news\/files\/2024\/07\/1-learn.png?resize=300%2C214&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wordpress.org\/news\/files\/2024\/07\/1-learn.png?resize=768%2C548&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wordpress.org\/news\/files\/2024\/07\/1-learn.png?resize=1536%2C1095&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wordpress.org\/news\/files\/2024\/07\/1-learn.png?resize=2048%2C1460&amp;ssl=1 2048w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wordpress.org\/news\/files\/2024\/07\/1-learn.png?w=3000&amp;ssl=1 3000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Four Learning Pathways are already launched and ready to explore:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/learn.wordpress.org\/course\/beginner-wordpress-user\/\">Beginner WordPress User<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/learn.wordpress.org\/course\/intermediate-wordpress-user\/\">Intermediate WordPress User<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/learn.wordpress.org\/course\/beginner-wordpress-developer\/\">Beginner WordPress Developer&nbsp;<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/learn.wordpress.org\/course\/intermediate-theme-developer\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/learn.wordpress.org\/course\/intermediate-theme-developer\/\">Intermediate Theme Developer<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>You can look forward to more Learning Pathways in the User and Developer tracks soon.
