HTML Programming (W442) Training Course

Training Course Objectives

The objective of this course is to provide the necessary skills to enable the development of Technical Staff to enhance their programming skills in HTML. Attendees will build on their knowledge and learn detailed functionality available in designing web pages.

We recommend students to attend this course along with the W443 JavaScript Programming course as an in-depth alternative for the serious programmer, rather than the fast track W432: HTML & JavaScript (fast). An appreciation of another Structured Programming Language such as Oracle SQL & PL/SQL may be helpful when attending this course.
