Introduction to Web Design and Development هذه الدورة تدرس باللغة الإنجليزية

تفاصيل الدورة

The Internet is now ubiquitous to all commercial, academic and social circles as a means of communicating, advertising, publishing and distributing information. Companies require in-house personnel to continually update and improve their web presences. Those that do not have in-house expertise must rely on outside development teams to keep their daily operations running. Introduction to Web Design & Development will give students an introductory foundation and deeper understanding of the web, and learn to build and maintain their own websites. In doing so this course will give students far better control over the development of corporate and/or their own web presences.

Programme Aims and Objectives

Using current industry-standard design software, this course is aimed at people with good computer skills who may have little or no knowledge of web technologies but who wish to develop, design, launch and maintain websites. Windows skills are assumed but no previous web or programming skills are required.

• Search for, evaluate, and use information from the Internet
• Read and edit HTML for low-level tweaks and modifications
