Job description

Original text imported from Reed

Are you looking to benefit from a new career in Web Development?

Skills shortages in the IT sector is driving the need for qualified, entry-level career seekers and career changers.

We help place graduates from this programme in top UK companies and organisations needing to employ entry-level software development staff that can hit the ground running with up-to-date skills gained from this programme.

The best part is you will not need any previous experience as fully accredited training, which includes tutor support and mentoring, provides you with the skills, practical knowledge, and qualifications for you to secure a professional job and career in coding. You will also have the reassurance of a job guarantee (£25K-£40K) upon completion.

Whether you are working full-time, part-time or are unemployed, this package has the flexibility to be completed at a pace that suits you and can be completed in a few weeks or a few months (step 1 to 4 below). Your job and career goals are completed in four simple steps.

Step 1 - HTML and CSS Online Training

The first step is completing a selection of professional and industry-recognised courses. We have carefully selected these courses to give you the most out of both your learning and employment journey.

Once the HTML & CSS courses are complete, you will be ready to move forward.

Step 2 - Online Training

The second step includes a selection of more advanced courses to get you up to speed.

  • React-js

JavaScript forms the foundation of almost everything you see on the Internet, so it will be essential! Python is highly versatile. You can use it for both small and complex tasks, and it is used across many different industries.

Step 3 - Build a Portfolio Website Project

Additional Courses

  • AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner

Step 4 -Entry Level Development placement (£25K - £40k)

In addition, we are also ELCAS approved to help members of the Armed Forces, Service Leavers and Veterans gain rewarding careers in IT and Cybersecurity.

1Question

Why are you looking to change careers into web development?

After working in retail management for 8 years, I realised I wanted a career with more growth potential and creative problem-solving. The situation became clear when I helped our store implement a new inventory system and found myself fascinated by how the software worked. I started researching tech careers and discovered web development combines logical thinking with creativity. I've spent 6 months learning HTML basics in my spare time, building 4 simple websites, and consistently enjoyed the challenge of turning ideas into functional web pages. This programme offers the structured learning path I need to make this transition successfully.
2Question

How would you handle the challenge of learning multiple technologies at once?

When I managed our store's transition to a new POS system, I had to learn 3 different software platforms simultaneously within 2 weeks. I created a structured learning plan, dedicating 2 hours each morning to one platform before opening. I used a notebook to track key concepts and practiced each system during quiet periods. By week 2, I was training 12 staff members on all platforms. I'd apply the same approach here: create a study schedule, break complex topics into smaller chunks, practice regularly, and use the tutor support when stuck. The programme's step-by-step structure actually makes this more manageable than my previous experience.
