Higher Certificate in Graphic Web Design

The Higher Certificate in Graphic Web Design will equip students with web design skills and techniques essential to develop interactive websites and animation.

It stretches to incorporate every aspect of a web experience. The programme includes responsive website design, logo design, user interface design, HTML mark-up, design for ease-of-use (usability), selecting content imagery; flash animation; just to name a few.
