Also as another note-the class is made up of a variety educational backgrounds- some from the cert 3 and some from the cert 4  and a variety of practical experience backgrounds so the first 6 weeks will feel as though you are not learning anything new for some and for others it will seem as though you are drowning and in way over your head :)  But everyone will get through if you are genuinely committed to getting through this course.

Everyone needs to appreciate that this is a diploma level course where your learning is primarily self directed by you. The teachers are here to facilitate your successful completion of the Diploma Web Development qualification to the standard as set out by ASQA but you need to be  independent in your learning and self management.  There will be many topics/area that will come up or that you may be interested in that the course does not cover or that the facilitators/teachers are not experts in and are not expected to be where you will be expected to research solutions and apply  for yourself.- Oh the shock :) :)

Also I must present my disclaimer now that I am the queen of typos so please don’t hesitate to question me on anything a say or write :)
