“As an agency owner, Break Into Web has been an excellent and invaluable resource for our interns and employees to work through. While there are tons of courses out there, this is the only one we’ve found that effectively explains the web design/development process to give them the necessary tools and steps they need to step into a successful career as a web designer and/or developer. “

– Nathan

Tyler

“There is A LOT of info out on the web when it comes to web design and this course does a great job of putting everything you need in one place. The Facebook group and access to John and Kelly for questions is worth the price of admission in and of itself. Both are great teachers and very responsive to questions. The course is solid and they continue to add new content. Highly recommend!”
