At the Interactive Media Management Post-Graduate Program, every year, I guide 20-30 students (with no technical experience) through the Web Development process. In roughly 180 hours, they are prepared for a junior level position as a web developer. Their web courses are supported by User Experience Design, IoT development, media production, Project Management, and Interactive Coding. My courses are primarily project based (roughly 20 projects) with standard assessments, individual mentoring and team coaching.
