Front-End Web Development Certificate

This certificate program is for anyone who wants to learn to code websites and become a Front End Web Developer. It’s a good fit for:

• Those who want to build websites (using HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and WordPress).
• Web designers, art directors, managers, and marketing professionals who want to understand how code works.
• Anyone who needs to create or edit webpages or emails. Business owners, people in marketing, or anyone in a company that works with the creation of websites, blog posts, landing pages, and emails can benefit from web coding skills.

In addition to 108 hours of interactive training, you will receive six 1-on-1 mentoring sessions that can be used for career and job support, including polishing your resume, preparing for interviews, and reviewing best practices for applying to jobs. Note, however, that we don’t provide job placement (i.e. reaching out to companies on your behalf).

Yes, you will be expected to complete 5–10 hours of work outside of class. You’ll be practicing the skills learned in class, coding your own website(s), and developing a portfolio of work.

Noble’s typical class ranges from 8–12 students, but we accept up to 20 students.

We have scheduled the certificate classes in various tracks (day, night, or weekend) for your convenience, but you can customize your schedule.

When creating a custom schedule, you’ll be able to choose between the various available dates for each class in the certificate program. So if you can’t make a particular class, you can choose a different scheduled instance that works better for you. You’ll still need to take the various courses in the recommended order as shown above, except for Front-End Tools & Portfolio which can be taken any time after Flexbox, Grid, & Bootstrap.

We focus on teaching professional skills that people can use right away in real-world jobs. To keep class prices low, we do not offer job placement.

We don’t know of any schools that offer job placement at this price point. Programs with job placement are much more expensive. If you're considering one, be sure to read all their fine print to see what you will be required to do and if there are ways they can exclude you (such as missing a class or not fulfilling one of their other requirements).

Not having to worry about job placement statistics frees us to accept all students. Anyone who wants to learn at Noble, can. Some of our students want to learn a topic well enough to get a job in the industry (full time or freelance), others are already working in the industry or a related industry and want to add skills, and others want to be able to communicate better with people in the industry. No matter what your goals are, you are welcome at Noble Desktop.

Even though we don’t offer job placement, we aim to give students practical and valuable skills to apply in real-world jobs. We teach a lot in a short amount of time, to prepare students as best we can with skills applicable to full-time or freelance work. We want you to succeed!
