Welcome to the Certificate program! We are looking forward to seeing you on the first day of class. In preparation, we would like to ask you to complete the following exercises, which will introduce you to programming via HTML and CSS. HTML is the base language of the web, and CSS is a way to add basic design elements to web pages. We will revisit HTML & CSS during the first few days of the program, but these exercises let you better dive into the content on Day One.
