Hey you! Have you joined the Ladies Learning Code mailing list? If not, join here.
What is Ladies Learning Code?
We're a Canada wide not-for-profit organization providing women, *men and youth the opportunity to learn beginner-friendly technical skills in a social and collaborative way. We're all about showing people that learning to code can be fun!
*Men are welcome to attend (and they do!), but we encourage you to bring an additional female learner where possible
Why Web Design?
The web has become a space for anyone to explore their creativity and the perfect place to show off a skillset; either through a blog, personal or company website. The first question you will always find yourself asking is "How do I go about designing a website? Where do I start?". That's where this workshop comes in! Ladies Learning Code's Introduction to Web Design workshop in a full-day hands-on learning experience, focusing on the fundamentals of setting up your workspace, selecting a layout, creating reusable templates, and understanding the impact that a Content Management System (like Wordpress, or Joomla) has on your design. The main objective is to set you up for success when you are faced with a web design project, big or small!
At this full-day workshop, you'll learn to use Photoshop (plus as much design theory as we can reasonably fit in).
About Your Project
We will teach you web design fundamentals throughout the day with the final result being a fully mocked-up web page! You'll learn to create things like grids and a layout, headers, footers and templates - everything you need to know to design your website. But be warned - web design can be pretty addictive once you have all the power and knowledge to do it yourself.
Is this workshop for you?
If you have a minimal understanding of Adobe Photoshop, or don't know it at all, this course will be great for you as you will be able to learn some Photoshop Fundamentals along the way. You will be required to have access to Adobe Photoshop for this workshop. You can download a free trial version if you don't have it, though!

What participants say about our programs:
"Honestly, the set up of one instructor - four students is brilliant."
"I'm super impressed with the organizers and participants, and I think it's a really valuable initiative"
"[The best part of the workshop was] the positivity, helpfulness and eagerness to learn/teach of every person in the room."
"After years of teaching myself to code, I wasn't sure how I'd find the collaborative experience of an LLC workshop- but it completely exceed my expectations. The lead instructor was clear and throrough, and the volunteer instructors were always ready to throw new challenges at us the moment they saw we'd completed the current task. Solving a coding problem has always been exciting for me, but havin a group of people equally excited about it was amazing!"
Hope to see you soon!
