Trainees looking at this market are usually quite practically-minded, and don't really enjoy classrooms, and endless reading of dry academic textbooks. If this could be you, use multimedia, interactive learning, where learning is video-based. Our ability to remember is increased when all our senses are brought into the mix - learning experts have been saying this for years now.

Modern training can now be done at home via self-contained CD or DVD materials. By watching and listening to instructors on video tutorials you'll take everything in via their teaching and demonstrations. You can then test yourself by using practice-lab's. All companies must be able to demonstrate some simple examples of their courseware. Expect video tutorials, instructor led classes and a wide selection of interactive elements.

Go for disc based courseware (On CD or DVD) if possible. Thus avoiding all the issues associated with broadband 'downtime' or slow-speeds.

The design-environments employed by web designers are their most important tools. 'Adobe Creative Suite' 4 is the most commercially accepted in the market nowadays (as of '10). The software that builds web sites is 'Adobe Dreamweaver', & 'Adobe Flash' gives access to graphical content material which can be interactive and animated. In many ways we can view 'Dreamweaver' as a glorified Word-Processor. Graphics & text can be layed (according to known limits) and then a basic interactivity can be established via page linking. 'Dreamweaver' (or any other web design environment) produces 'HTML' (Hyper-Text-Markup-Language) program-code in the background. Basically, this language of web browsers' is a 'script' that draws & controls the page being viewed. Together with HTML are the layout tag languages - for instance CSS & XML. Because these 'tag' languages are standardised, the streamlined and more efficient results work effectively on many different platforms. The idea being that the page will appear exactly the same on any browser, be it 'Mozilla Firefox', 'Internet Explorer', 'Safari', 'Opera' or anything else. As a result the graphic-blocks you are placing & the text you are putting in is being turned into 'code' in the background by 'Dreamweaver'. A well-rounded knowledge of these languages is very important if you're to become a commercially-viable web-designer.

The most technically apt internet professionals are normally the web-developers. Not only will these people know the languages mentioned above, they will also have had training in other languages, for example C#, VB, 'PHP', Java, ASP.Net and so on. They will generally also have got a good understanding of SQL database technology, as this is one way most contemporary substantial websites store their information. The majority of E-commerce web-sites aren't actually the result of a big bunch of web designers who've created countless pages in layout format. Instead, a place holder template will have been produced, and the material will be dynamically fed from a Database. This makes not only the building, management and up-dates hugely more straighforward, it also creates a more consistent site.

Technology and IT is one of the most electrifying and revolutionary industries you could be involved with. Being a member of a team working on breakthroughs in technology puts you at the fore-front of developments that will impact the whole world for generations to come. Technological changes and communication through the web will spectacularly affect our lifestyles in the future; remarkably so.

Let's not ignore salaries also - the usual income in the United Kingdom for an average IT worker is noticeably greater than average salaries nationally. It's a good bet that you'll receive a much better deal than you'd expect to earn doing other work. It's no secret that there is a significant UK-wide need for professionally qualified IT workers. In addition, as growth in the industry shows little sign of contracting, it appears this will be the case for quite some time to come.
