Course Overview:

JavaScript is one of the most important languages when it comes to building modern, interactive websites and apps. Along with HTML and CSS, it is one of the core building blocks of the web - and it's growing ever more popular thanks to the wealth of powerful JavaScript libraries and frameworks available.

While JavaScript can be a little harder to pick up than HTML and CSS, our in-depth course will provide you with the knowledge that you need to create dynamic and engaging websites - or even fully-featured web apps.

This course is intensive but we have ensured that there is plenty of time for questions and useful, practical assignments. We know that students learn faster when they are given plenty of tasks to experiment with.

We make sure to keep our class sizes small, so that every student is able to have their questions answered by the course instructor. The atmosphere is usually one of relaxed and quiet focus - although there's time for making friends and swapping a few geeky jokes during the breaks, too.
