Learning to Build Websites from the Ground Up

“I always wanted to understand how websites work – not just use them, but actually build them,” says Angjelica Mingko, a recent Web Developer Diploma graduate from Pitman Training Manchester. “When I found this course, it felt like the perfect opportunity to turn that curiosity into a real skill set.”

Angjelica had tried online tutorials before, but they always fell short. Too often, she was met with clickbait promises and platforms that left her on her own. What she really wanted was something tangible: A structured learning path, genuine support from experts, and a recognised certification at the end. That’s when she found Pitman Training.

“The course was really well laid out,” she explains. “It started with the basics – HTML, CSS – and then built up to more advanced concepts like JavaScript. By the end, I could build complete websites and actually understand what I was doing.”

Flexibility was essential. She combined in-centre visits for extra support with remote learning at her own pace. The Pitman Manchester team provided guidance when she hit a roadblock. “Whenever I got stuck, there was always someone to talk to. That kind of support makes a huge difference when you’re learning something technical.”

Her advice to others: “If you’re thinking about getting into web development, this is a great way to start. The course gives you structure, support, and skills that employers are looking for.”
