Call for Speakers

We are looking for speakers! 

We are looking for speakers who can engage our attendees while teaching them something about WordPress. Send us your idea for a talk, workshop, or conference session.

Talks for all skill levels are welcome: A presentation on what you learned setting up your very first website can be just as valuable as a technical walk-through of how user capabilities and roles are implemented within WordPress.

We do NOT require you to be famous, an expert, a programmer, specifically credentialed, or anything like that. If you’ve never spoken at a conference before, don’t let that hold you back! All we ask is that you present your chosen topic passionately and respectfully.

We do have some general guidelines for talks. Your talk should be:

  • directly related to WordPress, or immediately applicable and relevant to our audience;
  • respectful of the WordPress community, the WordCamp code of conduct, and the GPL;
  • something that interests you, that you want to share!

If you’d like to propose multiple topics, please submit the form multiple times, once for each topic.

Deadline for applications: April 8, 2018

Before submitting your speaker proposal, please log in to WordCamp.org using your WordPress.org account*.

If you don’t have an account, please create one.

* This is your account for the official WordPress.org website, rather than your personal WordPress site.
