Course Overview:
 
This workshop will help students with the creation of a professional portfolio website using
Framer. Through hands-on exercises, interactive tutorials, and respectful group feedback,
students will learn how to design and build websites that showcase their work and skills to
potential employers or clients. Lessons will cover essential topics such as layout design,
animations, responsive web practices, and integrating multimedia to create a compelling digital
presence. By the end of the course, students will have a fully functional and visually engaging
portfolio website to share and improve their job prospects.

1. Students will have explored various web design principles, including layout, typography,
and visual hierarchy, through a series of hands-on projects.
2. Students will have completed a professional portfolio website that showcases their skills,
work experience, and personality.
3. Students will have refined their ability to give and receive feedback on website design,

will leave with a portfolio optomised for job hunting and freelance opportunities.
