For anyone looking to get into the web design industry, studying Adobe Dreamweaver is a fundamental criteria for getting professional credentials that are globally recognised. For professional applications you will require an in-depth understanding of the entire Adobe Web Creative Suite. This will include (but isn't limited to) Action Script and Flash. If your goal is to become an ACP (Adobe Certified Professional) or an ACE (Adobe Certified Expert) these skills will be absolutely essential.

Building websites is just one aspect of the skills necessary for today's web technicians. Why not look for a course with additional features such as PHP, HTML and MySQL in order to appreciate how to create traffic, maintain content and work with database driven sites.

Don't accept anything less than the latest Microsoft (or any other key organisation's) authorised simulation materials and exam preparation packages. Make sure that the exams you practice are not just posing the correct questions in the right areas, but ask them in the way that the actual final exam will structure them. This can really throw some people if they're met with completely different formats and phraseologies. Be sure to ask for exam preparation tools that will allow you to check your knowledge along the way. Practice exams will help to boost your attitude - so you're much more at ease with the real thing.

It only makes sense to consider training courses that'll lead to industry accepted qualifications. There's a plethora of small companies pushing their own 'in-house' certificates which aren't worth the paper they're printed on when you start your job-search. You'll discover that only industry recognised qualifications from companies such as Microsoft, Adobe, CompTIA and Cisco will mean anything to employers.

Many companies only concern themselves with gaining a certificate, and avoid focusing on what you actually need - which is of course employment. Your focus should start with the final destination in mind - too many people focus on the journey. Students often train for a single year but end up doing the job for 20 years. Don't make the mistake of finding what seems like an 'interesting' course only to waste your life away with a job you hate!

You also need to know your feelings on earning potential, career development, and how ambitious you are. You need to know what the role will demand of you, what particular accreditations will be required and in what way you can develop commercial experience. Seek guidance and advice from an experienced industry professional, even if you have to pay - it's usually much cheaper and safer to find out at the beginning whether something is going to suit and interest you, instead of finding out after two full years that you're doing entirely the wrong thing and now need to go back to square one.
