Web Design Essentials
3 days
This course provides hands-on experience of today’s
most widely used web technologies. Whilst the wide array of available
technologies can provide the web developer with a portfolio of tools
to design attractive, interactive and powerful sites, the proliferation
of different technologies can also be difficult to assimilate.
In this comprehensive 3 day course, you'll gain an understanding
of the Web's current tools and techniques, identify the most suitable
for different circumstances, and you'll learn to create dynamic,
well designed, attractive Web sites which make an impact on your
audience.
The course is suitable for delegates who will be creating web sites
themselves, as well as those involved in the web development decision-making
and management process.
Please note that this course is not intended to provide in-depth
training on each individual development tool such as Dreamweaver
and FrontPage, which are covered on separate courses.
