Fetac level 5 web design

BrianG23

Hello, i'm doing a level 7 degree for electronic engineering, I have a year a half left before I finish it. I can't get a Job, and even if I could I would prefer to have one I like...I like the programming aspect of my course a good bit and I tend to be decent at it whenever I want to put the effort into it. For example, last week I spent about 20-30 hours specifically learning Object oriented programming/C++ in my own time. Just coming from C# last year. Im sure I only know basic programming, my course doesn't really need me to excel in the programming area too much. Not nearly as much as a Comp scientist. As far as I know anyway.

Anyway, back to the question, would it be worth doing a level 5, 2-4 month Web design evening or home course, just to help me get a job in the mean time? What job prospects would there be from just a level 5? Again I have no qualms about doing another little course alongside this one, i'd like to have an extra qualification as well in general, and i'm sure the course wouldn't hurt my programming skills for my engineering course.

i did the level 5 certificate in web authoring found it very good they covered mostly css and html. you should do the course remember a portfolio is very important in web design. learn more languages than just html and css other languages javascript, php, jquery, sql.
