CSS training philosophy
Our intermediate CSS training follows one basic principle:
Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day, teach him how to fish and you feed him for a lifetime
Chinese proverb
Put simply, we want to give you the skills to implement your CSS designs with confidence. The intermediate CSS training lasts for one full day, during which time you'll complete a series of exercises designed for you to discover the answers by yourself and then put into practice what you've learnt.
By the end of the day, you'll have a excellent understanding of fundamental CSS principles. As a result of our hands-on intermediate CSS training, you'll have:
- A deeper understanding of your new knowledge
- Ownership of what you've learnt
- The ability to apply what you've learnt again and again in the future
