Dear Colleague
Netskills will be running the following workshops at Queens University of Belfast:
1. Web Pages from Scratch, 7th November
-----------------------------------------------------
Publishing web pages is now easier than ever, however some degree of technical knowledge and skill is vital in order to produce high-quality, standards-compliant online content. This practical workshop explains how web publishing works and teaches the fundamental skills you will need to create web pages using the current XHTML standard – along with an introduction to web page style and design.
2. CSS: A Complete Web Style Toolkit, 8th November
-----------------------------------------------------
The nature of the web today means there is an expectation for sites to deliver professional-looking, accessible and cost-effective content. Couple this with the need to provide easily maintained web pages - that also meet the current publishing standards - and you have just some of the reasons that make CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) into an essential toolkit that all web authors should have at their disposal.
By exploring the core concepts and techniques - and in some cases their limitations - you will leave equipped with a practical understanding of the most useful tools that CSS offers the web developer. You can then immediately start to use them to build creative, accessible, standards-compliant style into your own web sites.
3. Programming for Web Developers, 9th November
-----------------------------------------------------
Now you can finally get to grips with the fundamentals of web programming and add exciting, dynamic functionality to your web site. Having picked up the skills required to present web content using HTML and CSS, many developers find the move towards incorporating programming technologies within their web sites more challenging. This new workshop will explain the core web programming concepts and languages that you will need - to help you make that move with confidence!
These workshops also support our BTEC-accredited qualifications:
