Yes, you will be expected to complete 5–10 hours of work outside of class. You’ll be practicing the skills learned in class, coding your own website(s), and developing a portfolio of work. ### How many students are in a class? Noble’s typical class ranges from 8–12 students, but we accept up to 20 students. ### How does the custom schedule work and what is the recommended class order? We have scheduled the certificate classes in various tracks (day, night, or weekend) for your convenience, but you can customize your schedule. When creating a custom schedule, you’ll be able to choose between the various available dates for each class in the certificate program. If you can’t make a particular class, you can choose a different scheduled instance that works better for you. You’ll still need to take the various courses in the recommended order as shown above, except for Front-End Tools & Portfolio which can be taken any time after Flexbox, Grid, & Bootstrap . ### Does CreativeLive offer job placement? We focus on teaching professional skills that people can use right away in real-world jobs. To keep class prices low, we do not offer job placement. We don’t know of any schools that offer job placement at this price point. Programs with job placement are much more expensive. If you're considering one, be sure to read all their fine print to see what you will be required to do and if there are ways they can exclude you (such as missing a class or not fulfilling one of their other requirements). Not having to worry about job placement statistics frees us to accept all students. Anyone who wants to learn at CreativeLive, can. Some of our students want to learn a topic well enough to get a job in the industry (full-time or freelance), others are already working in the industry or a related industry and want to add skills, and others want to be able to communicate better with people in the industry. No matter what your goals are, you are welcome at CreativeLive. Even though we don’t offer job placement, we aim to give students practical and valuable skills to apply in real-world jobs. We teach a lot in a short amount of time, to prepare students as best we can with skills applicable to full-time or freelance work. We want you to succeed! ## Reviews > My new career provides the flexibility to work remotely, on my own schedule, and this allows me to spend additional time with the people that matter most. I completed Noble Desktop’s Web Development certificate program. I wanted to change careers and build smart websites for small businesses and organizations. Before enrolling with Noble Desktop, I tried learning to code HTML and CSS on my own. I frequently found myself feeling “stuck” with unanswered questions. More concerning was that I “didn’t know what I didn’t know” about current web technologies and best practices. Noble Desktop’s instructors answered my questions and introduced web development concepts and resources I would need to produce excellent work. The information presented in class was a valuable mix of Noble Desktop textbook content and tips & tools instructors discovered in their web development careers. The textbooks are so good that when I’m not sure about something I am coding, I trust my Noble Desktop textbooks more than most online search results. The Noble Desktop Web Development certificate helped me land a marketing agency internship. The first job of my new career was coding HTML emails for a national law firm. Since then, I’ve joined the rapidly growing marketing automation field and the sky appears to be the limit. I am working on Keurig Dr Pepper’s Internet of Things connected coffee maker program, building automated customer journeys that deliver, email, inbox & push messages to Keurig’s mobile app. Thank you Noble Desktop! > > — John Baldaserini, Marketing Automation Developer, Keurig Dr Pepper > I wanted to transition my career into Web Design and Development. The coding classes I took in college were outdated because the web had changed so much by then. Not only did I learn how to code the correct way with Noble Desktop, but I also learned the other parts of Web Design that I didn’t know before. I signed up for the Web Design Certificate. All of the classes are important, but these courses impacted me directly: Web Development with HTML & CSS, JavaScript for Front-End, HTML Email Bootcamp, and WordPress Bootcamp. Ultimately, I built up the knowledge and skills to transition into the career that I sought. The instructors at Noble Desktop are remarkable! They are knowledgeable, patient, and want their students to succeed. > > — Pamela Ferrer, National Manager, Email Marketing , Crohn's & Colitis Foundation ## Pricing **Tuition:** $3495 Payment options: Student financing available; see the current application terms and pay-as-you-go installments.
