PHP Web Developer

This comprehensive PHP web developer program provides students with a deep understanding of PHP programming and its use in developing dynamic web applications. 

The program covers PHP basics, such as variables, data types, control structures, loops, and functions, as well as advanced PHP techniques, including authentication, sending emails, working with XML and JSON, and security best practices. 

Additionally, the program covers database programming with MySQL and introduces students to popular content management systems like WordPress, Joomla, and Drupal.

The program also includes a module specifically for the CodeIgniter framework, a popular PHP framework for building web applications. 

Students will learn about the Model-View-Controller (MVC) architecture in CodeIgniter and how to create controllers, models, and views. They will also learn about CodeIgniter libraries and helpers and how to use them to build complex web applications.

Through hands-on projects, students will gain practical experience in designing and building web applications from the ground up. 

By the end of the program, students will be equipped with the skills and knowledge to build sophisticated, database-driven web applications using PHP and the CodeIgniter framework.

Training Methodology:

• This program follows Aitrich Training Methodology(ATM), which is designed to provide a real-life software engineering experience to the students.
• ATM is a specialized learning methodology that follows standard software engineering principles and practices as part of the whole learning process. It is based on a project-based, team-oriented, and instructor-led approach that emphasizes collaboration, problem-solving, and continuous improvement.
• The entire program is designed around a software project that develops a real-life application and the whole batch of students are organized as the team members who develop the system. 
• The team will follow agile methodologies such as SCRUM, and software engineering principles and practices as part of their daily tasks. As the program progresses towards the end, the project will be fully developed by the team members.
• At the end of the program, the students will have all the skills of an experienced software engineer who can undertake serious software projects with a sense of ownership.

Pre-Requisites:

• The participants are expected to have a good understanding of web development concepts and web technologies such as HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
