The later parts of the course are also available as a one-day session for those who already have an understanding of the basics of HTML. The 2 day course costs £1180 in total for up to 6 students, plus VAT and the instructor's reasonable expenses. Each student beyond 6 would cost £10 for the additional course materials.
