Website Design Training

The chosen platform for our basic website design course is WordPress. Lowest estimates suggest WordPress powers 37% of all websites on the internet. As such, the amount of creative and tech-support resources available is vast – very useful for starting out in web design.

Learn how to spin up a basic website by adding content, page layouts and the menus that link everything together.

To help you get warmed up we'll send you a free copy of the book Above the Fold when you sign up for four hours of lessons.

We're passionate about the apps and software that we teach and we hope to pass some of that on to you.

These skills can make you powerful so, to make your training more of a learner journey, we'll send you a hand-picked book relevant to your chosen discipline when you sign up for at least 6 hours of training.

Who is this training for?

• Students looking for an introduction to website design.
• Small business owners who want to gain a certain amount of control over their existing or proposed website.
• Graphic designers who would like to broaden their skill set.

What's covered in this course?

Our dynamic training quickly snaps to learner skill levels and aims but broadly:

• Setting up WordPress.
• Content creation.
• Using the WordPress customiser to brand your site.
• How to resize images for the web.

Will I get a certificate?

Absolutely, but only if you want one. You will be provided with a certificate of attendance and we can optionally add specific achievements and skills learned to the parchment.

Our training is dynamic so we reduce time spent learning tools or techniques that are irrelevant to your chosen path unless they are fundamental to the software and best practice workflow. That's why, for now, we don't issue one-size-fits-all certificates.
