About this Course
In response to COVID-19, we’ve shifted all our courses to online LIVE until it's safe to be in class.
Become a backend web engineer and get your hands dirty with SQL & PHP - the core technologies of the dynamic web. PHP is used by 79% of websites today and is used by giants such as Facebook, Slack and Wordpress. From small eCommerce websites to comprehensive ERP systems, PHP is at the core of an open-source stack that powers modern enterprise. Paired with MySQL or MariaDB, the Apache web server and Linux (or Windows!), developers have a 100% open-source stack with which to develop applications from scratch. PHP is used by a large number of frameworks including Wordpress and Laravel, meaning PHP knowledge lets you develop, optimise and customise these popular platforms.
This study programme starts with a database-development module, where you will learn about different database models and then focus on relational (and object-relational) databases, including creating the database, adding data, queries and optimisation. You then start your PHP journey in the PHP Foundations module, where you will learn object-oriented programming using PHP 7.1. You will be able to create dynamic database-driven websites and learn how to create all of the components required in the modern web. Finally, you will round off with the PHP Advanced module - where you will master PHP. You will learn and implement design patterns, understand security and optimisation, learn how to create REST web services and use PHP frameworks.
This programme prepares you for, and includes, the Zend Certified Engineer exam, where you will join a select few of individuals who not only have the practical industry skills, but also the certification to prove it.
