Why Learn Web Design and Development?

 

The ability to create websites and publish web content is a useful digital hack today. You could use it to start your own blog, start an online business or side hustle, share valuable information online, get a job to maintain websites or create content, or even design a website for a friend. It can also serve as a launchpad for a career in the tech ecosystem that is related to websites, such as cloud services.

This course from Aslan is especially suited for high school graduates who want to explore the world of web design. It will give you enough knowledge to make a website such as this one, and give you a base from where you can venture into more advanced web design and development skills.

The course does not promise to make you a wizard in web development. Like any good skill, it takes time and practice to become an expert. But how can you become an expert when you do not know where to start? This course will give you the basics information and proper hands-on skills to build a website using WordPress and other popular website builders.
