WordCamp RI would not be what it is this year without the generous help of New England Tech!  They opened their doors, and classrooms, to our group so that those who want to learn more about WordPress could do so at a convenient location with state-of-the-art technology.

If you’d like to learn more about the educational opportunities at New England Tech visit their website at http://www.neit.edu/.  You can follow them on Twitter at @NEInstituteTech and visit them on Facebook.

WordCamp RI is bringing together a diverse group from our RI and SE MA area: students, organizers for non-profits, owners of small businesses, bloggers, and techies.  All coming together to learn something new about WordPress and its potential value for our website and blogging needs.

Welcome to WordCamp RI and thank you New England Tech for being such a great host!
