What type of person was PE & DFTW built for?

Design for The Web – is Perpetual Education’s flag-ship course. It’s about training people to think like designers and showing them how to use technology to design amazing things.
And we had to make a website anyway, right? : )
There’s a bigger plan – but for now – DFTW is what we’re about 100%. This is our proof of concept for a better way to learn.
From the original home page
This course is for you if
you want to:
-
Build a solid foundation for how to design and build things for The Web.
-
(That means research, content strategy, user experience, user testing, and all the thinky stuff)
-
(It also means HTTP, HTML, CSS, PHP, JavaScript, and all the technical stuff)
-
(It also means a fair amount of visual design stuff)
-
You have 2-3 hours a day / 6 days a week
-
To follow a structured 9-month set of daily exercises and challenges
-
With a team of peers who are all on the same path
-
Working on real projects
-
With all of the real tools
-
And with real clients
-
Building up an impressive portfolio
-
That showcases and proves your value
-
(and you are willing to let the process lead the way)
-
(and who knows what role you’ll fall in love with)
-
You want to design and build your own websites and web apps
-
Or you want to work as part of a modern design team
-
And in the end – you want to feel the confidence to wield the power of the worlds most powerful communication platform
More on that
The instructor gets a little more personal on the subject.
So, is it you? Are you one of us?
Set up a meeting. These things aren’t going to design themselves. Maybe you’ll learn this isn’t the right path for you – or maybe 9 months from now, you’ll know how to design and build web applications.
