Course description: FrontPage Introduction
There are many software packages with which to build html pages. Many offer pretty much the same thing. One of the oldest and most established of these is Microsoft's FrontPage - the grand-daddy of them all so to speak.
I started working with this when it was FrontPage 95 and have stayed with it as the software of choice. Presumably you agree and that's why you're contemplating taking this course in particular. It is user friendly and offers the same user interface as other Microsoft products, which in the short-term means a shorter learning curve.
The course is aimed at the beginner to intermediate user although some advanced users may find it useful.
For more detail on what will be covered during the six weeks please see Course Outline.
