I started off with a single course to see how it would suit me as it had been 22 years since I had last studied. With the help from the people in Pitman, I completed the course and realised I could continue and get a Diploma. Best decision I could ever have made.

About this diploma

If you are new to the world of computer programming and are keen to pursue a career in this field, this diploma will help you learn the fundamentals of coding.

If you have an analytical mind and strong problem-solving skills, this could be the right career choice for you.

Smartphones, laptops, PCs, websites, and video games all run digitally scripted programs and, as the digital revolution continues, the reach of computer programming now plays a major role in other frequently used items, such as cars, household appliances, and watches.

With such a widespread growth in the demand for programming, there is a need for knowledgeable, qualified programmers who can not only write software programs but test, develop, and maintain them, as well.

If you’re new to computer programming, the prospect of learning how to write a digital script from scratch could be a daunting prospect. This diploma is designed for those completely new to the profession.

There are four core courses that will introduce you to programming concepts and guide you through the languages we’ll be focusing on --HTML and CSS. You can then select one elective course to complement the core training and that suits your personal aspirations and goals.

Aims and Objectives

This diploma will help anyone new to coding and programming learn how to write the instructions and processes that computer programs and websites follow using HTML and CSS. The course will also prepare you to take the IT Specialist (ITS) exams in order to gain certifications that will formally demonstrate your newly acquired skills.
