Course Details
Your chance to master two of the web's most powerful design tools.
Ask any professional web designer, and they'll tell you: when it comes to creating great-looking and dynamic web pages, Adobe Dreamweaver and Flash CS3 make a great combination.
While Dreamweaver gives you the ability to build web pages that are visually stunning, Flash allows you to add a whole extra level of design animation, interactivity, and dazzling special effects. When you master both Dreamweaver and Flash, you won't only have what it takes to impress your online viewing audience, you'll also be able to impress employers and build yourself a fabulous web design career.
