permaLink or The web and mobile developer boot camp certificate, college catalog provide students with a tuition-free option to pursue an entry-level career in the very fast-growing web and mobile development area. The sequence of three or more zero-unit classes covers basic web development skills of database, SQL, JavaScript/jQuery, Adobe, web page IDEs, WordPress, HTML, Bootstrap, CSS and responsive design. Responsive design is a methodology whereby multiple devices can view a single design. The goal is to mimic privately run coding boot camps. Coding boot camps are a high paced concentrated curriculum that prepares an individual for entry-level IT positions. Drawbacks of these boot camps are initial costs, and often job placement agencies take a portion of the first year’s salary. This certificate will cover current web developer skills similar to boot camps, but with no initial tuition costs or employment agreements. The certificate is geared to skills builders, recently out of work  IT professionals, individuals unable to afford boot camp bills,  or any student looking to enhance a college degree with important 21st-century skills.
