About the Course

During this 2-day course, participants will learn the most popular, useful, and well-supported pieces of CSS3 through a series of practical but innovative projects. Participants learn by completing a number of practical exercises involving the new techniques of CSS3 to produce a finished web page or section of a page. Participants can adapt these exercises to their own projects, or use them as inspiration for completely different ways to creatively use the new properties, selectors and values they have learnt.

I really enjoyed the course. The amount of material was quite a lot for the 2 days, but what I got out of it was a lot of understanding of best practice and having the chance to sweat out a problem. It really helped cement what I was learning.

Mark was able to clearly succinctly explain the concepts of CSS3 - with great examples to illustrate this and some very useful reference sources. Thanks so much Mark! Much appreciated.
