Basic computer literacy

Prior exposure to HTML is recommended

The PHP & MySQL course at Aptech Computer Training (available in Dubai and Sharjah) is designed to help students understand how to create dynamic and interactive websites. You will learn how to use PHP, a powerful server-side scripting language, and MySQL, a popular open-source database.

This course covers everything from basic PHP scripting to advanced features like working with forms, cookies, sessions, functions, arrays, and file uploads. You will also learn how to connect PHP with MySQL, write SQL queries, and manage databases using commands like SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE.

By the end of the course, you will be able to build web applications, manage user inputs, handle emails, and use object-oriented programming (OOP) in PHP. The course also includes database design using normalization and creating structured databases with indexes, joins, and functions.
