The Seven Keys to Highly Effective Web Sites
An introduction to a number of key concepts that make some Web sites
better than others. Students will view over 100 carefully selected
Web sites that are attractive, provide valuable timely information,
are easy to find and use, are responsive and actively involve their
visitors. Students will discuss the strengths and weaknesses of
these sites, and learn how to apply some of these lessons to their
own sites.
Creating Your Own Homepage:
HyperText Markup Language Essentials
This course introduces the main aspects of HyperText Markup Language
(HTML). Participants will learn how to create: a real HTML document,
links for several HTML documents, ordered and unordered lists,
hyperlinks, and HTML documents that include sounds and images.
Distance Learning Format
"The Seven Keys to Highly Effective Web Sites" and
"Creating Your Own Home Page: HTML Essentials"
can now be delivered right to your home or office in a combination of
formats to meet the needs of every type of learner. You select the
time and place that is most convenient
for you to participate.
The courses combine the following delivery platforms:
