You have to be able to program 99% of the people with degrees can't program sad but true, all that money to waste. If you can program and you have a great imagination you can start your own web development business. Besides you need a team, that's how web development works, it takes months and sometimes years to get something to work right, but once is done is done. Besides most of the things you need are already created for you and can easily buy them. Seach for the following PHP, PERL, MICROSOFT ASP, Java, CGI, among C, Visual basic, Data bases, is basically what you need to develop for the web. There is Macromedia Studio that has all the tools you need, is not cheap but is profesional stuff. Flash is the bigest and best thing to use because you can implement all the above technologies to make amazing work. Visit the Adobe site to learn more.GOOD LUCK and if you ever need some tips contact me........take care<br><b>References : </b><br> Been a web designer is much more than just a degree.

In fact, with most computer related fields I think it's more important to know what you're doing than to have the degree. If you have the know how, you could try getting a job at a web design firm, or you could do it freelance. What might actually make you more marketable than a degree is certification in the relevant languages/programs. I don't know what certifications would apply specifically to web design, but you may already know enough to pass some of the exams.<br><b>References : </b><br> Unless you are trying to get a job with a company that requires a bachelor’s degree, I wouldn’t really say it’s necessary.
