Web Programming Training Schedule

WordPress basics is for anyone who needs to make updates their existing WordPress website. Students learn how to add new content, post images and videos, and manage comments. This class starts with the absolute basics and assumes no previous web training.

The proposed third version of the web's styling language (CSS3) adds features that designers have been asking for for years: downloadable fonts, rounded corners, drop-shadows, gradients, multiple backgrounds, transparency and more. Explore all these new tools in our 4 hour, hands-on class.

This class is for students who want to design and create their own custom HTML emails. Content includes: Design decisions that help you avoid emails that look like spam, how to export an all image email from Photoshop, building custom layouts with tables in Dreamweaver, and how to style your layout with inline CSS.

Are you a visual thinker who wants to add advanced interactivity to your websites but the thought of learning programming leaves you cold? C2's Dynamic Websites with jQuery Plug-ins class is for you. Learn how to install and configure the most popular interactive plug-ins to add industry standard features like tabs, slideshows, lightboxes, tooltips, overlays, sliders, animated drop-down menus and mega-menus to your site with the absolute minimum of coding.

HTML5 is the future foundation of web development and it's already in use in the mobile web space, so there's no time to waste! Get up to speed with the new version of the HTML language with our 4-hour hands-on HTML5 class.

This class is for anyone who wants to quickly launch a website that they can update on their own without having to learn too much behind the scenes coding. The entire process is covered from installation or purchase of a hosted website; setting up a theme, editing the website, adding content, installing plugins, stopping spam and setting up basic shopping carts.

The jQuery JavaScript library enhances the visitor experience on your webpages, helping you make your content dynamic and interactive. C2's jQuery series is for web designers and developers who have a good grasp of HTML and CSS but have no programming or JavaScript experience. Using the jQuery JavaScript library students will learn how to create the most popular interactive elements for webpages: lightboxes, overlays, slideshows, animations, tooltips, menus and scrollers. We also learn to enhance forms and bring in dynamic content to a page via Ajax.

Following the progressive enhancement and unobtrusive JavaScript processes, we learn the basics of programming logic and language grammar then move on to how to select and manipulate any element on the page.

Students learn to animate and control any element on the page. We learn how to add and remove elements from the page dynamically, add temporary content in an overlay which leads to our first basic slideshow

A key use of jQuery is to enhance static navigation elements making them more interactive, animated and dynamic. Level 3 focuses on creating a better user experience for the contents of a webpage.

Forms are one of the only ways for users to send data back to a website from a webpage so anything we can do to the process with jQuery to make it easier and more error free for visitors is a usability win. We learn several techniques for enhancing our forms in this level. We learn how Ajax lets us refresh any part of our webpage with new data without having to reload the page or continue on to another.

Workshop: Bring in your own files or work on our demo project. Level 5 is available only as part of the Training Series, not as an individual level. Workshops do not qualify for our re-take policy.
