- Intermediate Back-end (3 months module)
- Intermediate React (3 months module)
- Machine Learning:
- Introduction to Machine Learning (6 months)
- Advanced Machine Learning (9 to 12 months)
- Low level programming:
- Blockchain & Cryptocurrencies (6 months)
Front-end (3 months)
You will learn how to build a dynamic and appealing customer-facing front-end website from a design brief.
Requirements: Learners must have an understanding of coding concepts in Front-end - at least already develop an HTML/CSS website page or newsletter - and any other programming language to be familiar with statements (if/else, loops), functions and execution flow.
Technologies learned: HTML5, CSS3, SCSS, Flexbox, WCAG: level AA, Media Query, Figma, Bootstrap, JQuery, LocalStorage, ES6, Webpack and TypeScript
