Course Description

The Webmaster: HTML & CSS for Beginners - Level 3 Course is designed for students who are interested in starting a career as a Web Designer or who simply want to build their own personal or a company/organisational website.

The course is designed as a thorough introduction to the HTML and CSS web development tools, and shows our students how to build a high-impact landing page with a stunning photo gallery, optimised for the popular search engine search algorithms and responsive to the browser screen size. During the course, our students will also build a contact page and their own store front, using some compelling animation, transition, and transformation techniques to attract their visitors.

The course covers the following topics: (i) Getting started with HTML & CSS; (ii) a comprehensive HTML primer for beginners; (iii) an extensive CSS primer for those new to CSS; (iv) code validation and debugging techniques; (v) an introduction to the basic principles of web design; (vi) incorporating multimedia elements into web pages; (vii) including special effects, such as text shadows, and sensational drop-down menus; (viii) an introduction to the JavaScript scripting language; (ix) an introduction to the powerful HTML5 APIs; and (x) the creation of an online store.

On successful completion of the course, students will receive the Distance Learning Centre Webmaster Diploma with feedback and analysis of your completed work, as well as an Open Awards Quality Endorsed Unit Course Certificate.
