GoLive Content Developer Certification
GoLive certification is based on a thorough knowledge of HTML, Adobe GoLive and practical experience working on a client Web site. GoLive content developers are responsible for understanding the template created by the designer, and inserting the client's content to produce the required Web pages.

The GoLive content developer is responsible for assembling and coding the site, and may also be responsible for some quality assurance tasks (such as browser compatibility or application testing). A content developer may also be asked to do text editing & graphic conversion.

You may hear rumors that understanding HTML is no longer necessary to create a Web site. Well, I like to compare HTML and WYSIWYG editors to a calculator.

WSYSIWG editors are time saving tools which can eliminate errors. However you will be severly handicapped if you use an editor and do not understand the basic principles of HTML. Content developers need to be able to look at the source code and analyze the code the editor has produced.

Students will be expected to design Web sites to meet the standards of clients from the community. A successful GoLive content developer exhibits a strong work ethic, perfectionists standard, patience, strong people skills and shows an attention to detail.

Job titles include - Web Production Specialist, Web Developer, Internet Developer, HTML Coder, HTML Guru.

Email the certificate coordinator for further information.
