What’s WordCamp Halifax without people sharing what they know about WordPress with others?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We’re looking for speakers to inspire a variety of audiences for September 7th. Speak independently, as a duo, or even suggest a panel topic we can wrangle you and some other speakers into!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

What does it take to be a WordCamp speaker?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Simply a willingness to share your experience with WordPress, which comes in all shapes and sizes. Topics that will appeal to new users right up to seasoned developers are all part of our programming. WordCamp Halifax is a casual learning space, so you don’t have to be a ‘professional public speaker’ to enrich the content of the conference. You just have to have passion and an interesting perspective to share.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Smile for the camera!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A neat aspect of being a speaker at WordCamp is that sessions are recorded and uploaded to WordPress.tv: check out last years speakers’ videos<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
