WordPress Campus Connect, launched in October 2024, is now an official event series after a successful pilot with 400 Indian students. It merges hands-on training with community activities like meetups and scholarships, inspiring interest from other organizations to replicate the model. Future events will target more students with diverse curriculum levels. Recognized as an event series, plans include larger student events and mentorship connections. Key next steps for volunteers involve creating resources, onboarding support, and establishing frameworks for student-led groups. The initiative exemplifies community engagement in WordPress education. Interested participants can join the #campusconnect Slack channel.
