Real stories of transformation through dedicated learning
The Learning Journey
Web design is more than just a trendy career path—it’s a creative and technical skill set that opens doors.
Over the past few years, we’ve watched students from various backgrounds transform into skilled professionals through our 1-year web design program.
Their stories offer insights into what’s possible with the right guidance, dedication, and structured learning approach.
The Web Design Learning Process
Learning web design is both art and science—requiring creative vision alongside technical expertise.
Our students discovered this balance through a carefully structured curriculum that builds skills progressively:
- Design Foundations (First Quarter)
- Photoshop essentials for digital graphics
- Creating logos, banners, brochures, and social media content
- Understanding visual hierarchy and user psychology
- Web-Specific Design (Second Quarter)
- Website layout principles
- Mobile responsiveness concepts
- App design fundamentals
- Transitioning from Photoshop to Figma
- Front-End Development (Third Quarter)
- HTML structure and semantics
- CSS styling techniques
- JavaScript fundamentals
- Working with jQuery
- Framework implementation (Bootstrap, Tailwind)
- Project Development (Fourth Quarter)
- Building complete websites
- Portfolio creation
- Professional practices
Let’s see how this approach worked for five of our recent graduates.
Student Success Stories
Bittu Sarkar: Finding His Technical Groove
Bittu joined us after completing his studies at Gobardanga Hindu College in West Bengal. Living in Gobardanga, his options for specialized tech education were limited.
“I had basic computer knowledge but didn’t know where to focus my energy,” Bittu shares.
The structured curriculum helped Bittu discover his strengths in front-end development. While he enjoyed the design aspects, he truly excelled when learning HTML and CSS.
His portfolio—viewable at bittusarkar2004.github.io/portfolio/—showcases clean code and thoughtful user interfaces.
After completing the program, Bittu relocated to Delhi for a position at MimansaTech, where he now builds websites for businesses across North India.
Arijit Mondal: Analytical Mind Meets Creative Design
Coming from Ashoknagar with a background from Haripur College, Arijit brought analytical thinking to his web design studies.
“The integration of design principles with logical coding structures clicked for me,” Arijit explains. “I could see how both sides worked together.”
His approach to projects was methodical—first understanding the goal, then planning the visual structure, and finally implementing with clean code.
This systematic approach made him an ideal candidate for WeaversWeb, where he now applies both his design eye and technical skills to client projects.
Preety Biswas: Balancing Education and Professional Growth
Preety’s story is particularly inspiring as she balanced her college studies at Gobardanga College with our web design program.
Living in Maslandapur, she initially questioned whether she could manage both commitments.
“The practical nature of the web design curriculum actually complemented my theoretical college courses,” Preety notes.
Her natural talent for visual design flourished through the Photoshop and Figma portions of the program. Her portfolio of social media graphics and branding packages impressed a local agency.
Before even completing her college degree, Preety secured a position as a Graphics Designer, applying her new skills while continuing her education.
Anup Banerjee: From Technical Curiosity to Expertise
After studying at Netaji Satabarshiki Mahavidyalaya in Ashoknagar, Anup had a natural curiosity about how websites functioned behind the scenes.
“I was the person always wondering how elements moved and responded on websites,” he recalls.
While he appreciated design concepts, Anup’s passion emerged during the coding segments of the curriculum. He took to JavaScript, like many of our web design students with particular enthusiasm, spending extra hours experimenting with interactive features.
His dedication paid off with an initial position at Minerva Infotech, followed by career advancement to Liberating Solution, where he now develops web applications.
Sanjana Maity: Transition Through Digital Skills
Originally from Chandpara, Sanjana was looking for skills that could open opportunities beyond her hometown.
“I wanted to work in a creative field in Kolkata, but wasn’t sure which path would get me there,” she shares.
The comprehensive nature of our program helped Sanjana identify her strengths in UI design and prototyping. Her Figma projects consistently demonstrated strong visual communication and user-focused thinking.
Upon completing the program, she successfully secured a position at Klizo Solutions in Kolkata as a Front-End Designer—achieving her goal of building a creative career in the city.

“Having classmates to troubleshoot with and instructors to guide us made all the difference,” says Krishanu Debnath. “We learned not just from the curriculum but from each other.”
Web Design as a Career Path in India
For students considering web design as a career, the timing is favorable in India.
The digital transformation across industries has created steady demand for professionals who understand both design principles and technical implementation.
“Companies are looking for people who can bridge the gap between visual appeal and functionality,” notes Suman Das, now working at ExnoWeb.
This demand extends beyond major tech hubs to smaller cities as businesses everywhere seek to establish or improve their digital presence.
Continuing Growth After Graduation
The learning journey doesn’t end with program completion.
Many graduates have continued expanding their skills:
- Some specialize further in UI/UX design
- Others deepen their development expertise
