• What we'll do
GDG Addis is organising another study jam on mobile site certification. This is a chance to get a professional accreditation that demonstrates you have an understanding of basic and advanced aspects of mobile website design and development. By learning together we think it’s going to be more fun and more of us are going to be able to complete it.

There is more traffic to mobile sites than desktop yet most sites don’t provide an effective experience for users. Best practice is changing rapidly so what people may have learned a few years ago may not be up to date. For companies and site owners we see better mobile design leading to significant and measurable improvements in customer acquisition, retention and engagement.

• What to bring
You need your laptop and should have basic web development skills to take part and it typically it takes 3-4 hours to run through the course materials, followed by a 90 minute multiple choice exam. It’s possible to do it entirely online alone, but we’d like to run through it together as a group.
