CIW Web Foundations Associate (not NZQA qualification)

CIW (Certified Internet Web Professional) is the world's fastest growing vendor-neutral Internet skills training and certification program for professionals. More than a certi?cation or a curriculum publisher, CIW is a Web technology standard adopted by academic institutions, governments and businesses worldwide. CIW includes applications and competencies, but our core curriculum focuses on the foundational standards that sustain the infrastructure of IT: Web design, e-commerce, security, networking and databases.

Students who have completed the Foundations courses have mastered more than mere digital literacy skills.
