| ARTICLE: Web Development In-Depth |
If you choose a web development career, you'll be focusing your internet programming skills on creating programs that let information flow seamlessly. You'll be an expert in the interactivity of the Internet and the usability of web applications.
Web Applications
According to internet job specialist John Kador, web application development involves writing, testing, and maintaining computer programs "to meet the application needs of end users in areas such as payroll or other accounting applications."
Be an Intranetmaster
Intranets are private networks used to distribute corporate or organizational information to employees. If you become an intranetmaster, you'll need communication skills, technical skills and, in a corporate setting, business skills.
Getting into Internet Programming and Web Development
To get your foot in the door of internet programming, you'll need at least an associate's degree in information technology with an emphasis on programming. You'll need experience with scripting languages like Java and SQL. You can get certification in these. Psychology helps, too, since you'll be designing for endusers and, perhaps, conducting focus groups.
Employment or Self-Employment?
If you want a web job that lets you work on your own schedule, self-employment in web development is your career path. As corporations become increasingly dependent on intranets, the jobs have gravitated toward the business world, however. Salaries for web application jobs vary widely, but fall in the $30-$50,000 range with experience.
