About this course


Our goals are for you appreciate the latest developments in HTML and CSS, and to apply the new and enhanced features to your own pages.


This course is intended for web designers with existing HTML and CSS skills who wish to learn about the enhancements available in the latest HTML5 and CSS3 web standards.

You will need to be familiar with HTML and CSS. Ideally, you will have taken our HTML & CSS Combo Essentials Introduction 2 Day course. A basic understanding of JavaScript would be helpful but is not essential.
