Dreamweaver — Quick!

If you don't want to become a "code-jockey" but still want to create websites as quickly as possible, then this introductory-level class is for you!

This class teaches how to use Dreamweaver's existing template designs as the springboard for a new website. You'll learn enough "code" to understand what's under the hood and be able to adjust a Dreamweaver template to fit your design. Topics include:

  • defining a website,
  • customizing a Dreamweaver template to fit your design,
  • understanding web standards,
  • using cascading stylesheets (CSS) to format text,
  • using CSS for basic positioning and page layout,
  • and uploading websites.

This class is for beginners, especially graphic designers, who want to start designing websites but who hate the thought of learning computer code. By the end of the class, you will have completed and uploaded a small CSS-based website that you can show your family, friends, and maybe even your boss!

Real World Websites

Anybody can learn the basic mouseclicks of Dreamweaver, the industry-leading web development tool, and put together a simple website.

But in the real working world, you need to learn more than just mouseclicks.

You need to learn how to build a website the right way, to take advantage of search engines and advanced features.

That means learning CSS, web-standards, and 508-accessibility requirements.

And of course, that's what we teach at PubCom.
