It has never been easier to make money building websites.
Regardless of how fluent you are in graphic design, we can teach you how to create beautiful and functional websites which you can start charging money for!
Here's how the course in structured.
Step 1
Enrol in the 4 week course
Our courses last 4 weeks and always align with the start of the month. We run courses all year round for designers all over Australia and beyond.
Step 2
Each week have a 90 min zoom lesson
We meetup online Tuesday nights from 7.30pm-9pm (Brisbane Time). Lessons are held in group format over Zoom and the lessons are recorded so you can watch it again and again.
Step 3
Also participate in weekly web design challenges
You'll be involved in a weekly design challenge to reinforce your skills. These challenges will help you to build a Hero Banner, Landing Page, Blog site, and full Website.
Step 4
Create 4 portfolio pieces during the course
Not only to the challenges reinforce your skills, they also serve to build a Web portfolio. This portfolio will help to win you work once you finish the course!
Step 5
Earn a Certificate
Once you complete the course and challenges, you'll receive a certificate of completion which can be used to make your CV more attractive to potential employers.
Step 6
Now you can add websites to your services
Most importantly, you will have the ability to put your designs onto a webpage. Every business needs a website and now you can start saying "YES!" and stop leaving money behind.
Here's what others say about their time in the Stacked Academy.
"I'm now got a whole new income stream from building websites. My clients are delighted with the quality and I'm able to actually recreate my designs on the webpage. This adds a new dimension to my freelancing career."
Here's why this course is one of a kind.
There's no shortage of web design courses out there. But what makes this one really unique and more effective than the others?
We believe there's three things that really make us stand out.
The Zoom 'Hang'
The lessons are not out-dated videos or stale Power point presentations... rather we like to do everything in front of you in real time. We meet Tuesday nights over Zoom and work through the content together. During the week you can refer back to the recording or get almost immediate support through our Slack Channel.
Design Challenge
After the lesson you'll receive a design challenge for the week. These challenges can be completed within a few hours. These challenges will reinforce your skills, serve as inspiration for other students, AND be a great addition to your portfolio.
Your Portfolio
At the end of the 4 weeks, you will be walking away with 4 beautiful portfolio pieces from your challenges. These Portfolio pieces will be enough to win you future web design work and wow your site visitors.
What will you learn?
Our course has been carefully structured from the ground up to give you the tools you need to build websites without code. We've jammed as much as we can into 4 weeks so that you can walk away with the skills and confidence to take on new web work.
What to expect after lesson 1!
If you are looking to dive head first into HTML, CSS, JavaScript... then you should look elsewhere.
This course is aimed to get you designing without code. This is the perfect way to dip your toes into the web developer waters before you take the plunge. Here's what our designers built after their very first lesson.
