Digital Media: Web Production, Certificate

Overview

The World Wide Web is ubiquitous today. There isn’t a business or organization that doesn’t utilize the web and social media to promote their products and services and cultivate their customer base. Behind this web presence are the designers and developers whose job is to produce a creative visual design, effective interactivity, and user-friendly and accessible content.

The SUNY Niagara Digital Media: Web Production certificate program provides the skills for entry-level positions in web design. This career requires a combination of creativity and technical skills to produce fully-functional websites.

Students in the Digital Media: Web Production certificate program gain practical experience in planning, creating and maintaining a website, developing mobile apps, and publishing and sharing content via social media. This includes the design and layout of content that incorporates graphic images, animation, forms, databases, and interactive multimedia components. Students will learn to code websites using HyperText Markup Language (HTML), Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), and JavaScript.

Program Goals and Objectives

To prepare students for entry-level positions in web design and digital media-related fields.

Alumni Spotlight

Maria Batt ’18

Director of Client Relations & Design
Shovel the Sidewalk
Williamsville, NY

“Not many people can say that they are living their dream. But I can. It’s not easy to change your career path and go back to school in your thirties. Life is more complicated with kids, work, etc. But life is too short to not love what you do. Enrolling in the Digital Media program at SUNY Niagara was one of the best decisions I ever made. I was hired as the Director of Client Relations and Design at Shovel the Sidewalk, a company that builds brands and creates advertising for small businesses. I have the privilege of doing something different every day, whether it’s creating an advertisement, designing a logo, building a social media strategy, or producing a television commercial.  The Digital Media program provided me with a well-rounded education that has prepared me for just about everything.”
