Web Design Foundations is a four part modular course aimed at anyone who wants to learn about how the Web works from the very basic beginnings and be taken step by step, in a friendly informal style, up to the point where they know how to build a basic modern best practices web site and put it online. This includes a bit of theory, but it largely focuses on getting your hands dirty with code (such as HTML and CSS), and learning how it REALLY works.

Web Design Foundations 4 : Advanced CSS and HTML topics

Advanced CSS and HTML topics takes HTML and CSS further, looking at advanced topics such as multi-column layouts, cross-browser issues, CSS sprites, faux columns, optimizing layouts for different devices such as mobile phones, CSS3 transitions, transforms and animation, HTML5 video and forms, and more.

What you need to be familiar with

The Web Design Foundations course assumes no knowledge beyond basic competency with computers, and a familiarity with using the Web. It is suitable for beginners. If you want to start the course part way through, you should understand the contents of the previous sessions first.

If you are a complete novice, please look into Web Design Foundations 1 : Introduction to the Web, and web design or Web Design Foundation 2: HTML Basics or Web Design Foundation 3 : CSS Basics

The course is also suitable for those with previous web development experience who want to update their skillset to modern best practices.

Equipment you’ll need

  • Yourself. Refreshments will be provided.
  • A laptop of some kind. Mac, Windows or Linux is fine.
  • A decent text editor (Recommendations listed in Signup Document below)

Costs & Times

£100 for the full course. This is a afternoon to evening course.
You will receive an electronic copy of the teaching materials, software, and programmes we write on a USB stick.

    I have just completed a web design course at the Open university. Which levels do oyu think I can enrol.

    I have used Kompozer and Mozilla Firefox.

    Do I have to attend the course or can it be done online?

    Hi there Bibi,

    If you have done a full web design course at OU, I would say that you are at a level where you are probably beyond web design foundations 1 (introduction to the web, and web design). You could possibly learn some things from web design foundations 2 and 3 (HTML and CSS), and you might want to brush up on your skills, although again you may well be beyond much of these courses.

    Web design foundations 4 covers advanced HTML5 and CSS3 features, and I would say you would probably be at a level where you would understand most of it, and get a lot out of it.

    We don’t currently do online courses, but it is a good idea to consider for the future!

    Does that answer your questions? Let me know if you have any more follow ups.
