Shout out to web design schools!
Filed under Trade Schools, Uncategorized
Here at tradeschoolworld we focus too much on skilled trades to the detriment of the many other trades and trade schools covered on our site. For shame! as Abe Simpson might say.
Seriously, we’re going to try to move away from our focus on traditional trades and give more attention to the many other trades covered on our site such as:
With that in mind, let’s talk about something near and dear to our web publishing hearts here at tsw: web design trades.
Web design seemed to be taking a hit a few years back when all you heard about was companies outsourcing to Asia and Europe. However, in the meantime, the pendulum has swung back this way as companies discovered that they were often getting second and third rate work from second, third – and even first – world countries.
Web design is still a very viable career choice, a rewarding career that offers people the ability to be creative and to see their work enjoyed by the public. If you work for (or own) a web publication with proper marketing and promotion you can expect many people to see your web design work. So it better be good.
There are a wide variety of web design skills that are still requirements including the following:
- Website layout
- Web technical skill such as php or asp and javascript
- Website usability is still a viable field of training (see this link) that incorporates technical pieces like dev skills and design skills. It also allows you to interact with people including clients on one side and usability testing subjects on the other.
Trade school world lists a number of web design schools from across the United States. Hey, by the way, we are looking at a website redesign. Does anybody know a web designer willing to help us out?
