Web Development


Ontario Graduate Certificate


Program Code: 11491

Campus: North

Length: 3 semesters

Humber’s Web Development graduate certificate program focuses on the development of websites and web services for multiple environments including database-driven programming, content management systems and mobile-friendly services. You will receive a combination of conceptual and practical training which will prepare you to plan, create and execute effective, efficient website design and development. Your websites will be responsive and accessible to people with disabilities.
 
Your work will be completed individually and in teams and will simulate the real-world work environment, honing your collaborative and teamwork skills. You will create commercial websites that apply theories of user-centered design, security, information architecture, quality assurance testing, accessibility and responsive design. This program will help you master the project management and presentation skills that are key to success in the workplace.
 
You will work on websites that meet strict business and development requirements. By the end of your final semester of study, you will have developed a comprehensive personal portfolio of your competencies, and you will be able to promote your skills at your portfolio show.

Work-Integrated Learning courses serve as the vital link between academic learning and real-world application. Within this framework, students actively participate in the Professional Practice course, equipping you with the necessary skills and confidence to secure your own field experience. Throughout this journey, a dedicated Career & Work-integrated Learning Advisor offers personalized guidance and support. 

In semester 3, students immerse themselves in the Field Experience course, committing 160 hours of practical application within the field. Whether pursuing paid or unpaid opportunities, all experiences undergo approval by your Career & Work-Integrated Learning Advisor to ensure relevance.
