AUGUST 12-13, 2017
If you were at WordCamp earlier this month, you may have noticed a cork board we set up on the ground floor. We invited attendees to share and connect by posting ads. Many of you shared your professional profiles, job openings, and collaboration opportunities. Click on the photos to zoom in and see the ads. Thank you for participating!
Thanks to Jer Clarke for snapping these photos.
The deadline for speaker submissions has passed. Thank you to everyone who applied. We’ll be in touch soon.
Each year WordCamp Montreal strives to offer a wide variety of talks and discussions about WordPress. We are looking for people who are excited about WordPress to entertain our attendees and teach them new things.
Deadline: Sunday, June 4th, 2017
Presenting at WordCamp takes some work but is very rewarding. You get to share your passion, convince people you’re worth hiring and help everyone learn about WordPress, all at the same time. Speakers also receive free admission to WordCamp.
The ideal speaker has a WordPress-related topic they are passionate about and that they can present in 10 or 45 minutes with attractive slides and detailed, coherent explanations. Designers, bloggers, businesses and developers are all welcome to apply! Talks can be in English or French. Your topic should be specific to WordPress.
Show us what you’ve made with WordPress and explain how you did it, or what you learned in the process. Give us concrete examples: code snippets, 10 important lessons you learned, specific advice on how to avoid problems, etc. Nothing is too hardcore, advanced, simple or beginner-level. We’re looking for diversity.
We reserve the right to refuse any submissions.
We are also looking for workshop leaders for WordPress-related workshops. We’d like to offer workshops in the evenings, the week before WordCamp (August 7-11), and during the day, the weekend before (August 5-6). Workshops should last 2-3 hours. Workshops can be in English or French. Your topic should be specific to WordPress.
Please let us know your preferred date, how many people you would feel comfortable leading, what equipment you would need, and if you would need teaching assistants.
Have a great idea for WordPress-related activity that doesn’t fit into the above categories? Unconference sessions should last 45 or 90 minutes. Unconference sessions can be in English or French. Your topic should be specific to WordPress.
We’re seeking talk submissions for 10-min short presentations. These are bite-sized formats great for short demos, quick tips, and inspirational stories.
The general fields we are hoping to cover include:
Please view last year’s schedule for example topics.
