HTML - The Backbone of the Internet

Every site on the web is built in HTML. Even if it uses some of the most advanced scripting languages to achieve incredible interactivity, animations and so on, the base language for every site, from Google to Facebook to YouTube is HTML.

If you're new to web programming, learning HTML is undoubtedly the place you should start.

We also provide private and in-company HTML courses. Call +44 (0) 1273 622272 to discuss.

What our clients think of our Web Design courses

I really enjoyed the Web Design and Dreamweaver training I did last month and the HTML course last week. I felt the tutors I had were extremely friendly, knowledgeable and patient (important with technical things as it is very easy to feel confused and then a bit intimidated) and the atmosphere was very friendly overall.

The tutors were really careful not to use technical jargon or acronyms and to never go too fast until all the class have caught up. They managed the different levels in the class very well, supporting those that were a little behind and needed extra help while simultaneously setting other tasks for those that were faster. The resources they recommended as we went where very helpful and the course notes were excellent.
