During this comprehensive course we will provide you with the in-depth knowledge needed to enable you to perform creative and professional web design techniques whilst working on your own material.
The aim of the course is to provide you with the ability to produce accurate, commercial standard websites with ease. The course has a strong emphasis on design, accessibility and search engine optimisation techniques whilst giving you a clear understanding of HTML syntax and the correct usage of CSS (Cascading Style Sheets). You will also learn valuable real world hits and tips garnered from over 12 years experience in the web design and development field.
CSS layout (Cascading Style Sheets) is a means of separating the content of a document from the style and layout of that document, making the HTML far cleaner. This is useful for a number of reasons: firstly, you can change the layout of the whole CSS website by altering only one file (the .css document) and you have a much greater control over the design. Secondly, CSS websites are far more search engine friendly and thirdly, you can make different CSS versions of the same page for different HTML readers i.e. PDA's, Mobile Phones, Web TV, Braille readers. The course explores all of these advantages.
This course assumes no prior knowledge of HTML, CSS or Dreamweaver and we will provide you with the advanced training that will help you become an excellent web designer.

Steve Barlow Ceo, Huff n Puff Events The course was really useful in helping me understand the basics of website construction, and helping me learn how to read CSS and HTML. It was also really helpful in providing web tips, resources and online help which will be vital to me in progressing my skills after the course. I feel satisfied that I will be able to go on from the course and start creating my own site.
