Course Description

This course is designed to instruct the trainee in Web site construction and design. The trainee will learn HTML/CSS/JQuery coding and then be introduced to popular Web Design and graphics programs including Dreamweaver, Photoshop and Flash, as well as the Content Management System (WordPress). The course covers the usage of graphics, sound and video and discusses the appropriateness of multimedia on Web sites for journalism, advertising, public relations, and e-commerce. Trainees work on several small Web projects that lead to a final multimedia project. The goal is to emphasize more than just the skills associated with individual programs, but to integrate several programs into designing effective and attractive Web sites.
