The Web Programming and Development Program introduces the fundamental concepts of web applications, providing a comprehensive coverage of both client-side and server-side development. Students will receive the skills and knowledge to build engaging, interactive user experiences on the web as a front-end web developer.
Classroom lecture and hands-on instructions will be provided by full-time industry professionals; namely web developers, software engineers, security specialists, technology consultants, program managers and human resource specialists. Students will gain invaluable knowledge and experience developing with HTML, CSS, LESS, JavaScript, TypeScript, Angular and React. Other topics include Git, Automated QA, Back-End, Database, Hosting, Deployment, Security and Soft Skills. Throughout the program, students will complete a series of professional portfolio projects that they can showcase for potential employers when seeking employment.
After 9 months of classroom instruction, students are placed with a company for 240 hours of an unpaid externship. The externship is an extension of the classroom learning where students are required to complete 240 hours either through a full-time (38-40 hours per week) or part-time (18-20 hrs per week) schedule. By the end of this course, students will have knowledge, confidence, and skills to be entry-level to junior-level web developers in today’s job market.
"I was nervous about learning to code. The instructors at MTECH were actually working as programmers themselves and so really knew their stuff. Best move I ever made" -Lisa Horton
