If your dream is to become a great web designer with relevant qualifications for the job market today, the course you need is Adobe Dreamweaver. The whole Adobe Web Creative Suite should also be studied in-depth. This will mean you have knowledge of Flash and Action Script, amongst others, and will prepare you for the Adobe Certified Professional (ACP) or an Adobe Certified Expert (ACE) certification.

The construction of a website only scratches the surface of what you'll need - in order to create traffic, maintain its content, and work on dynamic sites that are database driven, you'll be required to have further programming skills, for example HTML, PHP and MySQL. In addition, you should have an excellent grasp of SEO (Search Engine Optimisation) and E-Commerce.

Only consider training paths that lead to industry recognised qualifications. There are far too many small colleges promoting 'in-house' certificates which will prove unusable when it comes to finding a job. Unless your qualification is issued by a major player like Microsoft, Cisco, CompTIA or Adobe, then you'll probably find it will be commercially useless - because it won't give an employer any directly-useable skills.

Typically, a new trainee will not know to ask about a vitally important element - the way the company actually breaks down and delivers the physical training materials, and into how many bits. Usually, you will join a program requiring 1-3 years study and receive one element at a time until graduation. This sounds logical on one level, until you consider this: What happens when you don't complete all the sections or exams? And what if the order provided doesn't meet your requirements? Due to no fault of yours, you may go a little slower and not receive all the modules you've paid for.

To be in the best situation you would have all the training materials sent to your address right at the beginning; the entire package! Then, nothing can hinder your capacity to get everything done.
