If ever there was a value-less cert, the CIW is it. It sure isn't worth spending thousands and thousands of $$$ or pounds on. The same goes for Photoshop certification (unless you're teaching it, in which case it's justifiable).
thanks for yo help all, i think im more confused now though, is there any other courses out there that would benefit me better than doing this course? id say im fairly good on photoshop and i know a little bit about html and i can use dreamweaver a bit. thanks for the info on the £900 course looks alot better than spending £4700, but if theres any other courses out there that would benefit me better could some one please reccomend them to me thanks alot once again!
Why do a course at all? Why not just buy a bunch of books and also use the 'net to supplement them?

i would have thought if i did a course it would have shown that i have knowledge of web design but from reading around i have read that maybe just learning the skills and making a portfolio would be a better option. would you reccomend i just learn the skills hbroomhall? thanks for taking your time to help me

ah rite i get what your saying now, to do the CIW but not as a course do it your self. and as for the portfolio that will come along when i learn more and more skills, thanks everyone, mainly harry!
are ther web certifications that would be better to learn for as i have checked around and the CIW is the only one i can really find, another course i have found is by the home learning college, but it doesnt sound as good as the CIW. Please help.

If you were an employer who was looking to hire a Web developer, would you hire someone who took a Web design course and had a bunch of certifications, or would you hire someone who shows you a portfolio of their work?
the portfolio, can anyone reccomend any books they used to help them with web design? ive been finding tutorials all over the net that have been helping but im new to webdesign really and im not sure whats worth learning and what isnt. thanks or your help this forum is excellent.
