Overview
With more than 3 billion people using the Internet, the future of retail, learning, and most other industries is online. This means web designers are needed to create and maintain those websites. If you’re looking to use your creative skills in today’s digital landscape, the Web Design Professional course is for you. This course will teach you foundational web design skills. You will first learn the best practices for the technologies that drive web functionality: HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. You will then learn Creating, Styling, and Validating Forms, and take a deep dive into Bootstrapping to further your knowledge of web development. Finally, you will learn how to use the tools of the trade: Adobe Photoshop, Dreamweaver, and Animate.
The need for web designers isn’t slowing down. Every great site needs more than functionality — it needs a fresh, unique look to convey an organization’s products, services, and message. With the skills you gain from this intensive course, you can start a fast-paced career in web design.
