Full-time 2022 - Feb 2023 · 1 yr

Aiming to pursue a career change to development I have been working through the IT Career Switch coding course. Throughout the course, I learned a plethora of current coding languages, notably, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, PHP, C#, Python, SQL, and Java. At the end of the course, I was tasked with creating two applications to showcase my skills.
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.
