Entry and tasks in the areas of web design and web development

There is currently no traditional training or study program in this field in Germany. Many web designers and developers are career changers. They have learned their skills independently, completed further training in programming or have already worked as software developers in other areas.

Web designers create websites using HTML5, CSS and Bootstrap. They are primarily responsible for the visual appearance and user guidance of a website. Their main task is to develop an appealing, functional and user-friendly design that is both aesthetically pleasing and presents the content in a clearly structured way. Responsive design is also one of their tasks and ensures that the website works and looks good everywhere - regardless of the end device.

Web developers are also proficient in HTML and CSS. However, they focus much more on scripting languages such as JavaScript or PHP. They use these scripting languages to technically implement websites and web applications. They program, provide interfaces, connect databases and ensure a stable and secure application. They usually work together with web designers and other specialists.

At GFN, you can prepare your entry into these professions with web design training courses. Subsequently, further training in the programming languages JavaScript or PHP is an option.
