In the programming world, the “big 4” often consists of Google, Microsoft, Facebook and Amazon. To get a job at any of these companies, you absolutely MUST know the essentials: HTML, CSS, PHP, JQuery, JavaScript and MySQL.

If you take this course, you will have nothing to worry about because we use all of these skills extensively!

Programming issues, errors, feature requests, general programming advice - it doesn't matter, I'm always happy to help!

The site you create in this course will be the highlight of your project portfolio! Any potential employer who see's this project on your resume will want to hear all about it. The reason? They know that a project like this means you're familiar with the wide range of technical skills they need their employees to know.
