Web development course and Job Ready Program

This program is for people who want to build websites and web applications for a living in Australia, whether you are starting out or moving across from another field. It is an intensive, bootcamp-style program covering the front end, a content management system, back-end code and the database behind it, so you can take a site from idea to something that runs.

What you will learn

You learn to structure pages in HTML, style and lay them out with CSS so they work on a phone as well as a desktop, and use JavaScript to make them respond to what a visitor does. You learn to build and customise sites in WordPress, which runs a large share of the Australian web and is where a great deal of junior work sits. You learn how search engines read a site and what makes pages rank, which is a skill clients ask about constantly. You also learn how development teams work in short iterations and how support and change requests reach a developer once a site is live. Depending on your program, you write server-side code, and you learn SQL properly so you can store, query and shape the data a site depends on.

Certifications you can prepare for

The program prepares you for agile and database certifications, alongside practical training in the tools employers ask for. The table below shows which certifications belong to each program.

What you practise in the internship

In the internship, you work on simulated web projects for fictional businesses. You might build a responsive page from a design, set up a WordPress site with the pages and forms a small business needs, write a script that validates a form before it is submitted, fix a layout that breaks on mobile, write queries for a product catalogue, or audit a site for the search and accessibility problems holding it back.

Entry-level roles

The skills in this program are relevant to roles such as junior web developer, front-end developer, WordPress developer, web support officer and digital producer, and to freelance work building sites for small businesses.

What each program includes

Prices: All prices in the table include GST, and the amounts in brackets show the price before GST. Each program can be taken with or without certification exams.

Price with certification exams: This price covers your first attempt at each exam marked in the course table on your program’s page. Each exam has an exam timeframe of three months from finishing the related course. Complete our exam request form within that timeframe, and we will book your exam at an authorised test centre or through online proctoring where available for that exam.

Payment plan options: Ask our team about paying in instalments.

Upgrade to a higher program: You can upgrade by paying the difference in price, subject to intake availability.

Full-time and part-time training: Full-time training runs on weekdays. Part-time training runs on weeknights or weekends, and its duration depends on your class schedule and is confirmed in writing before you enrol.

Fast-track option for prior experience: If you have relevant experience, ask our team whether your training can be shortened.

Instructor-led training: Hands-on training in the classroom or live online. The courses in each program are shown in the course table on each program’s page.

Exam-style mock tests and certification practice questions: These help you prepare for your certification exams and assess your knowledge.

Career GearUP workshop: A group workshop covering current job market trends, job search techniques, interview techniques, and tips for writing your resume and cover letter.

ATS-friendly resume writing support: Many employers and recruiters use applicant tracking systems (ATS) to sort and search applications. We help you write a resume with a clear layout, standard headings and relevant keywords that these systems can read.

Tailored cover letter support: Help to write a cover letter tailored to the roles you apply for.

Remote internship: The internship is unpaid and for educational purposes. Its primary purpose is learning and skill development through practical exercises, simulated workplace scenarios and case studies. Depending on your field, this may include simulated projects or simulated support tickets based on fictional businesses. All projects and scenarios are simulated and are not real client work. Participants are not employees of Logitrain and do not perform productive work or contribute to Logitrain’s business operations. Anything participants create is used only for their learning and assessment, and participants may keep their work for their own portfolio. The internship does not lead to employment with Logitrain, and it runs after your training.

Internship completion certificate: If you complete all set internship tasks, you receive a certificate confirming the length of your internship.

LinkedIn profile review: Feedback on how your LinkedIn profile presents your skills to employers.

One-to-one Career GearUP coaching: Individual coaching sessions focused on your career plan, resume, LinkedIn profile and job applications, which can be used up to 6 months after your training is completed.

One-to-one mock interviews: Individual practice interviews with a Logitrain career consultant, with feedback on your answers to technical and behavioural questions.

Internship reference (email and phone): References are provided within 12 months of completing your internship. Each reference is for one employer, and we only provide references with your consent.

Job search and application coaching: A Logitrain career consultant coaches you through your job search. You learn how to find and assess advertised roles that suit your skills, and your consultant gives you feedback on the roles you choose and helps you tailor your resume and cover letter for each one. You submit your own applications, and Logitrain does not contact employers on your behalf. This coaching does not guarantee interviews or employment.

Certification exam retake (with exams): If you take Program 3 with certification exams and do not pass an exam, we cover one retake of that exam. The retake must be sat within six months of finishing the related course and follows the vendor’s retake rules, including any waiting periods.

Job Ready Programs are non-accredited training and do not lead to a nationally recognised qualification. Vendor certifications are issued by the vendors when you pass their exams.

† Certification exam included when you choose the price with certification exams. Select a course name to see its prerequisites, skills gained and course outline. Prices on individual course pages are for standalone courses and do not apply to Job Ready Programs.

Web Development Job Ready Program FAQs

What does a junior web developer do?

Junior work is usually building pages from designs, fixing bugs and layout problems, making small changes to existing sites, and looking after content and plugins. You are rarely architecting something from nothing in the first year, and the developers who progress fastest are the ones who ask good questions and write code other people can read.

Do I need a degree to get a developer job?

No. This is one of the few fields where employers will look at what you have built before they look at your qualifications. A portfolio of working sites and code you can explain is worth more than a certificate, which is why the internship produces work you can keep and show.

Is WordPress worth learning, or should I go straight to coding?

Both, and in that order. WordPress runs a large share of Australian small business websites, so it is where a lot of paid junior and freelance work is, and it teaches you hosting, themes, plugins and content structure. Writing your own code then takes you further into the roles that pay more.

Why is SEO part of a development program?

Because clients judge a site by whether people find it. Understanding page structure, headings, performance and how search engines read a page makes you more useful than a developer who only writes markup, and it is a common question in interviews for agency roles.

Why learn SQL for web development?

Almost every site of any size sits on a database. Being able to write queries, understand joins and shape data properly is what separates someone who can style a page from someone who can build an application, and it is the skill that opens back-end work.

Where can a web development career lead?

People move from junior roles into front-end or back-end specialisation, then full stack, and from there into senior developer, technical lead or solution work. Others move sideways into user experience, product or running their own web business. What carries you is the code you have shipped, not the number of courses you have taken.
