Proposal On Website Design And Your Career In It Com130

PROPOSAL ON WEBSITE DESIGN AND YOUR CAREER IN IT

Prepared for – Faculty – University of Phoenix

As an inclusion to the report entitled Website Design and your Career in IT

By – Student – COM 130

In this final research project I propose to write about website design and pursuing a

career in Web Development.

I have been developing websites for over 20 years and am currently the CEO of

Sterling Design Webmasters based in Denver Colorado. I initially became interested in

web design as a way of understanding all components of Internet portals known as

websites. When I first started my education in website design the Internet was still

relatively new and website construction and design was being done by a very small group

of developers. I am completely self-taught and have not taken any formal training on this

subject.

The elements I intend on focusing on are basic requirements of web development,

time factors, marketing and competitive pricing. I will close this research project on the

benefits associated with this type of career as well as the importance of ongoing research

and education.
