- 6. + TELL ME IN THE CHAT Are you a current or aspiring WordPress web designer or developer?
- 7. + TELL ME IN THE CHAT DOES THIS SOUND LIKE YOU?
- 8. + TELL ME IN THE CHAT Your website projects end up spiraling out of control, costing you time and money. But you don’t know how to stop it from happening again.
- 9. + TELL ME IN THE CHAT DOES IT SOUND LIKE YOU?
- 10. + TELL ME IN THE CHAT You want to confidently build client websites without spinning your wheels and doubting your abilities.
- 11. + TELL ME IN THE CHAT WHAT ABOUT THIS ONE?
- 12. + TELL ME IN THE CHAT You’ve tried going to WP Meetups and attending WordCamps to develop your skills but it’s not enough and you’re frustrated.
- 13. + AM I CLAIRVOYANT? No. I’ve been right where you are now, and I didn’t like it at all! So listen the bio I shared with you is every bit true but it wasn’t the full story. Here’s the inside scoop:
- 14. + Hi, I’m Judi Knight The back story. . . In 2000, I got a divorce and left the family owned software company selling my shares to my ex-husband. I let my psychology license go so wouldn’t ever “fall back” on doing psychotherapy because I could. I went into commercial real estate development designing and building loft projects - which I loved. In the mid-2000’s I saw the writing on the wall about the coming real estate crash. I built a simple WordPress website to sell my properties. It worked, but I didn’t get the prices for them that I had anticipated. I knew I was going to need to get a job and I had no idea what I was going to do.
- 15. + HOW I BECAME AN “ACCIDENTAL” WORDPRESS DESIGNER I was sitting in my friend’s coffee shop, doling out advice to friends about starting their new business with a WordPress website. Other people overheard these conversations and asked for my card. I’d say, “I don’t have a card.” They’d say, “I don’t care. I want to work with you.” I’d say, “But, I don’t have a business.” This kept happening until I realized. . .
- 16. + THIS IS WHAT’S NEXT FOR ME! I’d found my new career. WordPress Web Design combined my skills in psychology, technology and design. The very first site I got paid for, I thought was SO great that I wanted to submit it to the WordPress.org Showcase. I had no idea how far my skill set was from being in that Showcase. Little did I know how much I didn’t know, or . . . how hard this path was going to be. But it makes sense now. . .
- 17. + Conscious Competence Model Me after my first client website
- 18. + Web Designer’s Learning Curve Unconscious Incompetence You Don't Know What You Don't Know You’ve made a website or two and are proud and excited about what you’ve accomplished. But, you have no way to accurately judge the quality and don’t know how far you are from doing good work. You like web design and think this would be a great way to make a living working for yourself.
- 19. + Web Designer’s Learning Curve Conscious Competence Model Me after several client websites Me after my first client website
- 20. + Web Designer’s Learning Curve Conscious Incompetence You Know How Much You Don't Know You’ve been building websites and are starting to realize it’s not as easy as you thought it would be. You start to get discouraged because it’s hard to deal with the anxiety that comes from being confronted by yet one more thing you don't know. You wish you had a systematic process for learning and a way to get feedback from experts when you need it.
- 21. + Web Designer’s Learning Curve Conscious Competence Model Started hosting the Atl. WP Meetup
- 22. + Web Designer’s Learning Curve Pro Competence You Know What You Know You know what you’re doing, but it takes a lot of effort as you continue to learn. When you complete a project, you’re confident in the quality of your work. You’re charging a decent rate. Your clients are happy with the results you achieve and they refer others to you. PRO
- 23. + Web Designer’s Learning Curve Conscious Competence Model
- 24. + Web Designer’s Learning Curve Unconscious Competence You Just Know Creating effective websites has become second nature. You’re a confident expert in your field and sought- after for the quality of your work. You’re able to push the envelope of design and development. You’re a teacher and role model.
- 25. + PATH TO BECOMING A PRO
- 26. + Why Is Going From Stage 2 to 3 So Hard?
- 27. + Conscious Incompetence Three Options: 1. Teach yourself over time, which is difficult if you don’t know what you don’t know. 2. Give up and quit because it’s too uncomfortable being a beginner. 3. Find a teacher who has a method and a curriculum.
- 28. + The Challenge to Becoming a WP Pro is: • WordPress Meetups and WordCamps – love ‘em but they aren’t enough. • There hasn’t been a systematic foundation in everything you need to know to move through conscious incompetence to the conscious competence stage that we so desperately desire. There are Freelancing courses, Coding Courses, and even WordPress Courses but they’re still not enough to provide a solid foundation. • You need a teacher and a comprehensive curriculum but it hasn’t existed.
- 29. + How Do I Know This? • Rapid-Fire Website Critiques at WordCamps around the country • I encountered countless, frustrated web designers and developers stuck in what I now know was Stage Two in the Learning Curve • It made me really sad since I saw no easy path for them to become competent pros.
- 30. + Necessity is the Mother of Invention • I asked myself, “What would the path need to consist of?” • I Identified seven core competencies that every designer or developer needs to have under their belts to become a pro. • I’m going to tell you about them now.

- The four stages of competence Noel Burch in the 1970s Unconscious incompetence The individual does not understand or know how to do something and does not necessarily recognize the deficit. They may deny the usefulness of the skill. The individual must recognize their own incompetence, and the value of the new skill, before moving on to the next stage.[2] The length of time an individual spends in this stage depends on the strength of the stimulus to learn.[3] Conscious incompetence Though the individual does not understand or know how to do something, he or she does recognize the deficit, as well as the value of a new skill in addressing the deficit. The making of mistakes can be integral to the learning process at this stage.[4] Conscious competence The individual understands or knows how to do something. However, demonstrating the skill or knowledge requires concentration. It may be broken down into steps, and there is heavy conscious involvement in executing the new skill.[3] Unconscious competence The individual has had so much practice with a skill that it has become "second nature" and can be performed easily. As a result, the skill can be performed while executing another task. The individual may be able to teach it to others, depending upon how and when it was learned.
