=> HTML, CSS, Java etc

The university will issue certificates if you complete course work. Most courses costs under $400 + $10 for rental of online lab.

Personally I’m looking to join Perl programming certificate.

O’Reilly and Illinois have actually had those courses for quite a few years now. I remember thinking about taking some back in 2002-2003. I wonder why there’s the new marketing push for them?

Joe,

I wasn’t aware of old partnership.

May be they have re-branded the same thing with more features.

More than likely. A few years ago, the classes were tucked away on O’Reilly’s website and didn’t have a site of its own.

I wasn’t criticizing your coverage — I was just curious about O’Reilly’s motives. :)

No problem! To be frank I need some feedback on their courses. Otherwise both zend (php) and mysql offering official certificates.

Appreciate your post.
