I’m still waiting for my certificate from TESDA and Informatics. Last year, around October, I finished a short course for web design wherein for almost two months, I went to SM City Cebu to sit through a discussion on Adobe Photoshop, Dreamweaver and Flash. It was good cause it was free and I was able to go through the class despite being busy with a number of things.

I knew I needed the break from work, school and blogging. However I don’t know if I was able to get it last week. Sure I was on leave from my regular job for 7 days, my web design course was finally over and I usually had to spend more time taking pictures rather than blog. But I was under training wherein I had to maximize my time learning the ropes as well as blogging more often and understanding the concepts of another line of work. It was great yet the pressure is on. I know I deserved the temporary vacation but I’m just curious on how long I can keep this up.

It’s the end of my class and have I learned something? –> In a way, yes. I’m glad to have learned some basic techniques as to how I can navigate the tools used in Photoshop, Flash and Dreamweaver. Although I’m still not an expert and I haven’t really fully understood everything, I’m glad to at least have a background on the basics. I know now what the layers in Photoshop are there for.

I’m still waiting for my classmates to finish the HTML and CSS topics of a short web design course that I took up under a government scholarship. I got exempted for the first two weeks or so since I’m already done with the topics that I mentioned and I was just there for the Photoshop and Dreamweaver.

So this is the first day of my Web Design class at Informatics at SM City Cebu. There’s about 15 of us and I hope we get more stations to work on. I’m glad to be part of a lucky few who have been given the chance to take this course for free. I was planning to pay for it when the opportunity arrived when I inquired from the friendly staff that they have this scholarship offering. I grabbed the opportunity right away since seldom will anybody also get some allowance once the 102 hours is completed.

I applied at a known institution that had tied up with TESDA because of some scholarships that they offered about web design or web development. I chose the former. Hopefully, I’ll be one of a hundred first batch who will get to enjoy the benefits of having free education. I’m still waiting for a call.
