Coding Traineeship

IT Career Switch Ltd

Coding Traineeship Full stack developer 1-year program

During the traineeship I had to demonstrate a very competent level of the following programming languages and technical skills

  • HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript
  • PHP, SQL, jQuery
  • Bootstrap
  • Command line Git, Github
  • Remote API access
  • Python
  • React
  • Node.js
Portfolio Project #1: “Gazetteer”

The specification was to reply to a website specification for a map-based app to provide information on countries, with a focus on a “mobile-first” development. Preferably using a framework, to then develop HTML, CSS and JavaScript with JQuery modules that use PHP server-based components to source data from third-party APIs (Geonames, OpenWeather). The solution is assessed on its delivery to specification, functionality, and usability.

Portfolio Project #2: “Company Directory”

A more rigorous reply to this specification was required as a user requirements document was needed to be prepared which, when signed off, triggers the release of SQL allowing to develop a “mobile-first” application to maintain a company personnel database (MySQL). Sign off is only achieved upon the student supplying an independently witnessed document providing confirmation of the system’s ability to perform error-free.
