It's designed to help you perfect your CSS understanding so you feel more confident taking on more difficult projects. If this course seems too basic for you then check out our excellent advanced CSS training.

Supportive and knowledgeable CSS trainer

The intermediate CSS training is usually run by Webcredible's Head of Accessibility, Trenton Moss. Trenton is one of the most recognised names in accessibility and CSS and is constantly taking CSS design to the edge and beyond. He's passionate about what he does and often writes research articles. His work has been published and endorsed on over 100 websites and in numerous offline magazines and newspapers.

CSS training philosophy

Our intermediate CSS training follows one basic principle:

Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day, teach him how to fish and you feed him for a lifetime

Chinese proverb

Put simply, we want to give you the skills to implement your CSS designs with confidence. The intermediate CSS training lasts for one full day, during which time you'll complete a series of exercises designed for you to discover the answers by yourself and then put into practice what you've learnt.

By the end of the day, you'll have a excellent understanding of fundamental CSS principles. As a result of our hands-on intermediate CSS training, you'll have:

  • A deeper understanding of your new knowledge
  • Ownership of what you've learnt
  • The ability to apply what you've learnt again and again in the future

The cost per participant is £395 + VAT, including refreshments, a delicious lunch and all-you-can-eat ice cream. Vegetarian lunch is also available.

Participants also receive a free handbook containing all the course tutorials.

Demand for our courses is high so do be sure to book early to avoid disappointment. All courses take place from 10.00am to 5.00pm at our training centre in Aldgate, London.
