Web Development Courses

Discussion in 'Programming' started by nielsv, Jun 19, 2015.

    Hello,

    I'm part of a small company that organises web dev courses for students or companies.
    These are the available courses for the moment:

    - Hybride apps with Ionic & Phonegap
    - Responsive web design
    - Drupal 8 & Symfony 2
    - Customized PHP training
    - Start with Zend Framework 2
    - PHP & MySQL Starter
    - PHP Tools
    - MasterClass PHP
    - Start with jQuery
    - Start with HTML5 / CSS
    - Start with Zend Framework
    - Start with Symfony 2
    - Start with Laravel 5

    We're looking for the web developers opinions on what courses we still miss. What are courses you would like to follow or topics you would like to see?

    Hard to say, since you don't tell us anything about the curriculum for each course - I would hope that the starting HTML 5 / CSS is a very basic course which first and foremost teaches proper syntax and correct use of HTML - which most courses lack these days.
    As for other courses, you might wanna have some more database-related courses - for instance proper database design, etc.
    Also, it seems the courses for regular PHP (no frameworks) are a bit limited - maybe you should have some more courses on actually using PHP before diving into frameworks?

    Again, I have no idea what the curriculum is, so these are just based on the coursenames.

    That's really the problem -- just saying it covers that doesn't say WHAT is actually covered under those; and many of the things offered as separate courses are redundant if you teach the basics properly.

    Without examples of the coursework it's hard to weigh in meaningfully on what's missing.
