We're excited to offer two Blogging U. courses this March: Blogging 101 and Photography 101. Read on to learn more about each course, see how Blogging U. works, and register!

And you'll get a badge! Who doesn't love a badge?

Blogging 101: Zero to Hero -- March 2 - 20

Blogging 101 is three weeks of bite-size assignments that take you from "Blog?" to "Blog!" Every weekday, you'll get a new assignment to help you publish a post, customize your blog, or engage with the community. Whether you're just getting started or want to revive a dormant blog, we'll help you build blogging habits and connections that will keep you going over the long haul.

You'll walk away with a stronger focus for your blog, several published posts and a handful of drafts, a theme that reflects your personality, a small (but growing!) audience, a grasp of blogging etiquette — and a bunch of new friends.

Photography 101: A Photo a Day -- March 2 - 27

Photography 101 is a photo-a-day challenge. You'll publish new posts, make new friends, and hone your photographer's eye.

Photography 101 is a four-week, intro-level course open to all, from new bloggers to hobbyist photographers to pro-shooters. Use the camera you like: a phone, a point-and-shoot, or a dSLR. Each weekday, we'll give you a new photography theme and tip — we might share advice on composition, tips on working with different light sources, or image editing ideas -- and the community critique will inspire and motivate you.

How do Blogging U. courses work?

Blogging U. courses exist for one reason: to help you meet your own blogging goals.

  • Courses are free, flexible, and open to all.
  • You'll get a new task to complete each day, along with some advice and resources. Do them on your own time, and interpret them however makes sense for your specific blog and personal goals — we're not grading you, we're not checking that you complete every task, and there's no "wrong" way to use the resources we give you.
  • You'll receive each assignment via email. Each assignment will contain all the inspiration and instructions you need to complete it. Weekends are free.
  • Each course will have a private community site, the Commons, for chatting, connecting, and seeking feedback and support. Daily Post staff and Happiness Engineers will be on hand to answer your questions and offer guidance.

How do I register?

While you're free to register for both, we encourage you to try one course at a time, to be sure you get the most out of the experience. All courses will be repeated throughout 2015.

To register, fill out this short form. Registration for each course remains open until the day before the course begins. You won't receive an automated confirmation email, but you'll receive a welcome email with more detailed instructions before your course(s) begin.
