Introduction
The most important component of a web page is its content, and if the technology behind a web page does not help delivering relevant content, the reader will leave the page. Through the Web Content Development curriculum, students will learn how to create relevant information and present it effectively to the Web page readers.
Why Consider a Certificate in Content Development?
The Web Content Development Certification is a good choice for students with a major that naturally lends itself to content creation such as Communications, Design, English, Journalism or Marketing. In addition to four Internet Studies Center (ISC) core courses, content developers must take two or three other courses depending upon their academic major.
