KEY FEATURES
Many computer users of all ages, from those at primary school through to Senior Citizens, not only make frequent use of the Internet, but have probably also created web sites either for themselves or for friends, family and perhaps even for small businesses. If you fit into this category and find the creation and development of web sites a fascinating hobby, then why not consider turning this exciting hobby into a full-time career? If you have an eye for good design layout, catching colours, and meaningful displays which will encourage visitors to return regularly to the sites you have developed, then this one-year course is the one for you. With more and more local and world-wide trade being done on the web, as well as being used as a primary source for information, fun, games and socialising, there is a rapidly growing demand for qualified staff in all companies to create such web sites and maintain their presence and trading ability on the Internet.
