Professional Academy Diploma in
Web Development

Digital platforms are indispensable in today's business landscape. A Professional Academy Diploma in Front-End Web Development demonstrates your mastery of essential web technologies, setting you apart in a competitive job market. Acquiring these skills can open doors to entry-level roles or provide the starting block to move into specialised areas such as back-end development, web design, UX/UI design, or front-end frameworks. With a portfolio of websites built over the course, you will have evidence to prove your capabilities and skills to prospective employers or clients.

Our online experience is designed to be just as interactive, supportive, and inspiring as the UCD Professional Academy campus experience.

Online courses can be accessed from any computer or laptop with an internet connection.

Live lectures are delivered using Zoom. During these lectures, your teachers will use technology interactively to ensure an engaging learning experience. When appropriate, students will be encouraged to activate their microphones so that they can ask questions and communicate with other students.

Student care is a high priority at UCD Professional Academy, which is why our Student Services team is on hand to support you throughout your time with us. They will respond to any queries you have, help you with any technical issues, and facilitate your learning experience at every point. All students are given access to our Student Portal, where you can see your timetable, access all your study materials, and manage your account.

This course is assessed through a final project focused on building a working website or web application. The project allows you to apply the skills and knowledge you've acquired throughout the course, demonstrating your proficiency in front-end web development.

UCD Professional Academy Diplomas and Certificates are designed to give your career an advantage. Developed in conjunction with industry thought leaders our courses teach practical, applied skills to support you to achieve your career and business goals. Professional Academy Diplomas are suitable for career minded learners wishing to advance their professional skills and prospects rather than their academic credentials.

The Professional Academy is an independent wholly owned part of UCD designed to address the need for skills development in the workforce. Courses tend to be short, designed and delivered by industry practitioners, and are not part of nor do they lead to a traditional University award such as a degree or a masters. They are widely accepted by employers and many students are sponsored to study by their organisation.
