How to Use Colour on the Web
For web developers who want design guidance on the use of colour, “How to use colour on the web” is a 1-day seminar that shows delegates how to use colour to produce web pages that are easier to read and scan. Unlike competitor courses, this seminar provides a basic grounding in the human visual system, which allows delegates to generalise to their own situation.
After attending this training course, you will be able to use colour confidently in your web site. This seminar is led by Dr. David Travis who has over 20 years experience in the field of user centred design.
