Every website you have ever visited is built on the same three technologies: HTML for structure, CSS for appearance, and JavaScript for behaviour. This training course from the Arab British Fellowship Training Academy takes participants through all three, step by step, until they can build and publish a working web page on their own.

Digital transformation has turned basic web-development literacy into a practical skill for marketers, technical-support staff, entrepreneurs and career-changers alike - not only professional programmers. Rather than opening with theory, the course moves directly into hands-on practice: participants write real HTML pages first, then learn to style them with CSS, and finally bring them to life with JavaScript, so that every concept is tied to something they have already built.

By the end of this programme, participants will be able to:

• Structure a correct, well-organised web page using HTML.
• Style and control the layout of a page effectively using CSS.
• Add interactivity to a page with core JavaScript skills.
• Build responsive pages that work across devices and screen sizes.
• Move on confidently to more advanced web technologies afterwards.
