Advanced CSS training philosophy
Our advanced 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 don't want to implement advanced CSS on to your website - we want you to implement the CSS. The advanced 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 created a fully CSS-driven website and will have acquired a deep understanding of advanced CSS. As a result of our hands-on advanced 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 advanced CSS training courses are relatively small (maximum 10 participants) due to their interactive nature and are informal and fun.
Our advanced CSS training centre
Advanced CSS courses are run at our purpose-built training centre at the Webcredible offices in London & some other locations across the UK. The advanced 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.
