PROGRAM OVERVIEW

The Back-End Web Development Program is a practical, industry-focused training designed to equip students with the skills needed to build powerful, secure, and scalable server-side applications. Over the course of this intensive program, learners gain hands-on experience using modern tools and technologies such as Node.js, Express.js, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, RESTful APIs, JWT authentication, Git, Docker, and cloud deployment platforms.

Students start by mastering core web and JavaScript concepts before progressing to API development, database modeling, and application security. The curriculum emphasizes real-world problem-solving through labs, mini-projects, and a comprehensive capstone project where students design, develop, test, document, and deploy a complete backend system.

By the end of the program, participants will confidently build data-driven applications, implement secure authentication systems, manage databases, integrate third-party services, write automated tests, and deploy production-ready APIs to live servers. Strong collaboration practices using GitHub and professional code reviews prepare learners for real workplace environments.

This course is ideal for beginners, career switchers, and aspiring developers looking to launch or advance a career in backend engineering. Graduates leave with a robust project portfolio, practical coding experience, and job-ready skills aligned with current global tech industry standards.
