Coding for Designers & Managers

Online Course

A Coding Class for You

Do you work with software developers but not as a coder?  Would you like to build more prototypes and fewer PowerPoints? Edit web pages yourself? Better understand what on earth the developers are talking about? If so, this course is for you.

A Coding Class on Your Schedule

This course is designed around a workload of about 6 hours per week.  You'll be supported by a Darden instructor as well as a team of teaching assistants monitoring help forums and available in office hours.

A Coding Class for the Work You Do

You're going to learn how to build and deploy functioning applications in HTML, CSS and JavaScript.  You'll leave the course with the creative confidence to code where you want to.  Rather than an abbreviated 'CS101' class, this course is built from the ground up with you in mind-the interdisciplinary superstar!
