About the Course

During this 2-day course, participants will learn how to apply HTML5 to realise its benefits in today’s web browsers. To work and create websites and applications in HTML5, web designers and developers will need to know first how that structure is constructed. Our HTML5 training course teaches you how to create strong foundations which will help you to later apply the rest of the components to take full advantage of these new possibilities.

Who should do this course?

This HTML5 course is for web designers who want to apply HTML5 semantics and structure that make their websites become richer and more accessible, as well as, using native multimedia for video and audio and building intelligent web forms.

Good course that provided a broad overview of HTML5 and how it relates/incorporates CSS and Javascript.

This was a follow up course for me and it re-enforced core html coding language and gave me practical ways to apply.

I really enjoyed Simon's teaching style. He brought a wealth of background knowledge and experience which helped put things in context to the outside/commercial world when learning what's new with html5. He tailored the content to what I would need taking these skills back to the work and I really appreciated it.
