Houston, TX -- (SBWIRE) -- 12/09/2014 -- With demand for skilled programmers at an all-time high and growing, Simplilearn Americas LLC announced the launch of the company's new Web App and Programming category. Covering a wide variety of technologies, programming languages, and development frameworks, the courses in the new category are aimed at helping professionals build valuable new skill sets, shore up existing ones, and acquire popular programming certifications. Simplilearn is one of the world's leading providers of professional education and certification preparation, and offers a wide range of affordable online and in-person courses of proven effectiveness.

"Whether it's web applications, mobile apps, or in-house programs built for businesses," Simplilearn representative Krishna Kumar stated, "employers are desperately looking for the skilled programmers who can get these important projects done. With the launch of our new Web App and Programming category, Simplilearn is going to support those professionals who are ready to step up to the plate and take advantage of these opportunities."

The United States Bureau of Labor Statistics lists the computer programming field as one of the fastest-growing segments of the American economy, a situation that is reflected throughout most of the developed world. Programmers earn impressive salaries, with a median pay level of nearly $75,000, and the tabs for senior-level specialists regularly rising well into six figures.

One distinctive and attractive thing about computer programming as a profession, too, is how results-oriented it is. Many of the world's most successful and best-compensated programmers have unconventional educational backgrounds, with employers typically caring above all else about demonstrated skills and ability.

Simplilearn's new Web App and Programming category will therefore serve as an excellent way for new and veteran programmers to build, refine, and demonstrate skills that will translate directly into increased job opportunities and better pay. The courses in the just-launched category cover a wide variety of subjects and technologies, from working with Microsoft's widely deployed .NET runtime to a comprehensive, ground-up tutorial focusing on the popular open-source programming language Python. Many of the courses are also available as part of strategically designed bundles that maximize the value students receive for their time and money.

Offered in a convenient online, self-paced format, the online web design courses and others in the new category were developed with the guidance of some of the programming field's brightest stars and most experienced teachers. In addition to helping to build skills that are valuable on their own account, many of the courses prepare students for the exams associated with widely recognized programming certifications like those issued by Microsoft and other authorities.

Given Simplilearn's extensive track record of successfully preparing professionals for in-demand certifications of many sorts, the company's new Web App and Programming category is expected to attract great interest. A total of 38 courses across four distinct subject fields have been introduced in the new category, ranging from web development training courses covering fundamental technologies like HTML5, CSS3, and Javascript to others focusing on specialized subjects like responsive design, Android app building, and object-oriented programming in the PHP language.

A pair of limited-time special offers detailed on the Simplilearn website, including a flat 25% discount offer good on all online products, make the courses in the new category even more affordable than usual. Those who sign up for the courses will also benefit from Simplilearn's generous three-day money-back guarantee that allows students to sample what is on offer without risk.
