Intermediate CSS training philosophy

Our intermediate CSS training is fully based around the principle of learning-by-doing. 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

Our intermediate CSS training courses are relatively small (maximum 10 participants) due to their interactive nature and are informal and fun.

Our intermediate CSS training centre

Intermediate CSS courses are run at our purpose-built training centre at the Webcredible offices in London. The intermediate CSS training itself is run in a bright airy room with each person having access to a PC. You can also use our break-out area during breaks and lunch where refreshments are provided throughout the day.
