Course Information
Programme Information:
This programme is designed to provide learners with comprehensive knowledge and practical skills in both front-end and back-end web development. This programme will cover three main modules as stackable Skills-Based Modular Courses: (1) Front-End Development, (2) Server-Side Development, and (3) Databases. By the end of the course, learners will be able to build, deploy, and manage full stack applications, integrating all layers of web technology from the user interface to the server and database management.
Skills-Based Modular Courses (SBMC)
The Skills-Based Modular Courses (SBMCs) are bite-sized part-time courses for individuals to acquire new skills or deepen relevant skills, without the need to pursue a full diploma. The SBMCs are modules selected from part-time diploma programmes and candidates may choose to complete the remaining modules within the validity period to be awarded the full diploma qualification. The validity period is 5 years for a CET Diploma, up to 4 years for an Advanced Diploma, and 2 years for a Specialist Diploma and Diploma (Conversion).
Individuals may take the SBMCs in any order to qualify for the micro-credential. Please view Lesson Plan to find relevant SBMC.

On completion of the course, you should be able to:
- Build a full stack applications by integrating front-end interfaces, server-side applications, and databases, utilizing APIs and modern web frameworks
- Design, implement and manage database systems to meet business requirements
- Undertake a substantial project involving full stack development

Lesson Plan
Lesson Plan:
- Module – Front-End Development (TGS-2024041896)
- This module provides students with the knowledge and skills needed to develop responsive user interfaces and build front-end applications using languages and tool such as HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript and other modern front-end web frameworks. Students will learn how to consume and integrate third-party APIs in their applications. Students may also learn in practice how to clearly document and present the projects they have built, using up-to-date project/code management and source control tools like Git. User experience concepts in front-end applications will also be covered in the module. The focus of this module is to develop and strengthen skills in development of front-end applications with care for user experience.
- Module – Server-Side Development (TGS-2024041892)
- This module provides students with the fundamental knowledge and skills required in server-side development. It will also cover the integration of back-end system with databases, possibly external systems as well as consuming data from web application protocol interfaces (APIs). Towards the end of the module, it may also introduce to the students how their knowledge in server-side development can be applied in applications with various front-end interfaces; this allows students to flexibly apply their server-side development concepts and skill learnt in developing back-end systems of various uses.
