Website development refers to the entire process of building a website – from its design, to its construction, to its maintenance stage. The field comprises three main roles: front-end web development, back-end web development, and full-stack web development.

Front-end web development primarily focuses on the client-facing elements of a website. This includes its interface, navigational buttons, and any multimedia features.

Back-end web development zeroes in on the server-side elements of a webpage – such as the scripting, databases, and general architectural features that keep it up and running. This particular role concentrates on managing the behind-the-scenes activities that take place when interactions (i.e. online purchases, file-sharing, navigation) occur on the site.

Finally, full-stack web development combines both areas into a single role. Full-stack web developers have the advanced skillset to design and develop complete websites and web applications, making them highly valuable professionals in any IT setting.

We have a mix of both nationally recognised courses and globally recognised vendor certifications. Nationally recognised qualifications can be identified with the Nationally Recognised Training logo. The Vendor Certifications will show the vendor name eg. Microsoft, AWS, CompTIA

Successful website developers need a balance of both hard and soft skills to advance in the industry.

On the technical side, sought-after web developers typically fare best with a “full-stack” knowledge of the field, as this grants them a complete, comprehensive understanding of the entire development process. As such, they can carry out both front and back-end tasks when the situation calls for it.

All web developers are also recommended to train in cyber security – as this field deals with the crucial practice of securing website data, systems, and networks from existing and emerging online threats. With cyber crimes rising at an exponential rate each year, the tools and knowledge of reliable IT security will grow ever-more invaluable.

Additionally, sound knowledge and experience in online marketing can help web developers rank their sites higher in search engines. This area includes skills in search engine optimisation (SEO), copywriting, and a familiarity with social media.

Of course, soft skills in communication, critical thinking, analysis, and creativity are also highly valued. The best web developers have a keen ability to work and share ideas with others; a sharp eye for the fine details; and the drive to innovate and think out-of-the-box.

Lumify Learn currently offers three different courses that deal with skills in web development:

Certified Full Stack Developer

ICT40120 – Certificate IV in Information Technology (Web Development)

ICT50220 – Diploma of Information Technology (Back End Web Development)

Each program is made up of nationally recognised or internationally recognised certifications to help you gain the attention of potential employers.

Our Certified Full Stack Developer program is comprised of the globally-renowned Certified Entry-Level Python Programmer and DevOps Foundation certifications by the Python Institute and the DevOps Institute, respectively. Our certificate and diploma courses are nationally recognised, and can help you build the skills to advance your studies or land entry-level opportunities in the industry.

All are flexibly delivered online, allowing you to train at a time, place, and pace that suits you best. You’ll also get a chance to network with other like-minded individuals through our online portal, and gain access to Lumify Edge – a membership that helps link you to potential employers and offers you further career advice through your employment journey in web development.
