This certificate packages together two courses that are fundamental to website creation - Writing for the Web and Web Design. This provides the skills necessary to contribute effectively to the development and maintenance of a web project.

Combining the courses in a single qualification provides a cross-functional approach to web creation, and will be of interest to students from both the Communication and Information Systems disciplines. In addition, this certificate will appeal to Information & Library Studies students wishing to move on to other degree and diploma programmes.
