Advanced WordPress Speed Optimization Training Course

Typically people looking to learn about site speed and who want site speed optimization training fall into two buckets, marketers and SEO-ers who want to pass the core web vitals test and then developers who want to dig deep and learn site speed optimization at a detailed level.
