Professional Webdesign Diploma
A diploma for anyone who wants to learn web design from scratch, design and code together. The programme runs part-time for two years as live evening classes in small groups, includes an internship and ends with a final project. After that a one-year bachelor top-up with a university partner is possible.
Who this programme is built for
Two questions decide an application: does the programme take you further, and will they let you in at all.
Who the programme suits
- Career changers who want to work as web designers in agencies or in-house teams
- Freelancers who want to build websites for clients
- Working people who want to learn in the evening and ask questions live
Entry requirements
- No formal requirements
- Good computer skills and your own computer
Whether you meet the requirements is something I check with you before you apply. This is where most applications fail, and it can be settled in a single conversation.
What you study
The modules of the programme, as the provider lists them.
The third semester includes a six-week internship. You can leave after each semester.
What can be credited
Every credited module saves time and money. How much is possible depends on your prior learning.
akademie-media does not mention credit for prior learning. The interesting route is the other way round: the diploma opens a one-year bachelor top-up. I clarify with you beforehand whether the degree works for your plans.
How credit transfer works in principle and what counts is explained on Credit transfer for work experience. The credit check gives you a first assessment in two minutes.
The small print
Legal status, assessment format and provider. The key facts are in the card at the top.
The information on this page is general in nature and based on my advisory practice (last updated 28.08.2026). It does not replace an official credit transfer or recognition decision by the respective university and is not legal advice. Specific decisions are made by universities, the ZAB (Germany), the BMBWF (Austria), or the SBFI (Switzerland). I clarify binding next steps with you in the initial consultation.
Is this your programme?
In 30 minutes I work out with you whether this programme carries your goal, what your work experience can be credited for, and whether another programme in the network fits better. I earn from the placement, not from your decision.
