Hi all,

Happy Spring!

The Lab for the Recently Possible <http://L4RP.com> has moved into the centre of Brighton, at 45 Gloucester Street in North Laine, over the road from The Skiff.

We're kicking off a season of events with a workshop to teach non-coders how to code for the Web. From zero experience, you'll learn about HTML, CSS and JavaScript and create a simple, working web application in the process.

Follow us on Twitter <http://twitter.com/L4RP> or our mailing list <https://groups.google.com/d/forum/l4rp> to stay up-to-date on future courses and events.

Learn to Code

Whether you have an interest to work in web development or are just a curious bystander of the Web, then here is a chance to spread your wings and learn to code a little. In a single day. Even if you've never written or seen a line of code before.

Coding is a means of expression and creativity. It develops mental clarity and logical thought and demystifies the process of creating for the Web.

What people are saying

"Brilliantly informative, fun and useful. This is an ideal course for anyone who wants to learn basic HTML, CSS and Javascript, or anyone who needs a refresher session in any one of these languages."

~ Dan Harris, digital producer at The Times

Who's it for?

Everybody!

- Perhaps you're a designer, wanting to understand the impact of your designs and speak to clients with confidence.

- Or you're a project manager, keen to demystify the tech being used in your products.

- Maybe you're the boss, and want to understand how your web developers think or improve the code competency of your team.

- Or you're a teacher, aspiring to confidence with ICT in the classroom.

- Or maybe you run your own projects and want to roll your own websites

- Or you might be taking the very first step of a bold new career…

Step-by-step

By the end of the day, you'll have learned to write the basics of the languages that run every website, page and application on the Web:

HTML is the language that describes the content on a web page.

CSS adds styling to the content, such as colours, text size and layout.

JavaScript is used to make the content interactive.

This is a beginners' course. Intermediate and advanced sessions are coming soon.

Taught by

Pete Goodman, Tom Parslow and Premasagar Rose — all Brighton-based professional web developers and teachers of web technology.

Feel free to pass on to friends, colleagues, bosses and loved ones.

Cheers, 

Prem
