Hi
I am currently employed in a basic admin position which I only took after finishing my degree in order to get some money in, and then ended up staying in due to having a child. I am now feeling very fed-up and have always wanted to work in IT, preferably web design. I have done some courses in HTML and javascript and found it straightforward, but do not feel confident enough in it to to apply for normal web design positions, and obviously don’t have the experience required. I’m willing to drop my wage to go for some kind of trainee position, or work alongside someone with more experience to help me learn the basics in real-life situations.
Can anyone please direct me to any helpful websites or give me any other insight? Are these jobs advertised in normal papers or only in particular places? Is it ever possible to do this part-time, or would I have to go full-time? Are there any government etc. schemes to help people change careers into IT?
Many thanks for your time!

Where Can I Learn About Web-design And About How To Build A Website That Makes Money?
February 25th, 2010There are a million ways to learn about web-design. Books, the Internet, CDs, DVDs, etc.
You will find it extremely tough to make money as a designer though. There are too many templates and do-it-yourself books out there for the average Joe to actually hire someone. Furthermore, anyone who’s actually willing to pay for something good will most likely hire a professional who went to a design school or who has a degree in graphic arts, IT or Computer Science.
Your best bet would be to become a pro. with the Macromedia Suite. If you can completely Flash or Dreamweaver, you may stand a chance.
I’d advise learning basic HTML first.
