Website Design Competition

[WSA Web Design]

Do you want to gain national and international recognition for your skills?

Do you want to have the opportunity to exhibit on a national level?

If so, then why not enter the WorldSkills Australia Web Design Regional Competition...

WorldSkills Australia Competitions are held each year in over 50 skills areas.

The competitions are designed by leading Industry experts and give competitors a head start in today's fast paced work place.

Top performers in these competitions could get the opportunity to enter an International WorldSkills Competition.

Could it be you travelling to London WorldSkills 2009 to compete against Web Designers from across the World?

Enter online by 1st June 2009.

And what happens to those designs and who owns them?

[I]The competitions are designed by leading Industry experts and give competitors a head start in today's fast paced work place.

And another question, who are these "leading Industry experts" the web site is very scant on these details.

Your comp seems aimed at students or recent graduates and not the seasoned professional.

The site that will be created in the 2009 Regional Competition is for a fictional client. Once each region has been judged, a DVD of the work will be posted to Head Office for archiving.

To be eligible for the 2009 Regional’s competitors must be born on or after 1 January 1986. The good majority of competitors in this situation will still be either students, or new to the industry.

The Leading Industry experts are from either Education institutes across Australia or past Competition winners who made it to the International Level.

Looks like I could enter the Australian comp but not the international one, but why would I in the first place? What is the prize?

If your over the age and you win the National Competition then you have the opportunity to take up one of the other International Pathways. You can view more on this at: http://worldskills.org.au/competitions.php?pageNum=18

Either way and it's nice to say that you came first (or went well) in your entire region for all Web Designers under the age of 23 :)

The Leading Industry experts are from either Education institutes across Australia or past Competition winners who made it to the International Level.

I wouldn't call either of these leading industry experts. How does a student winner become a leading industry expert?

To me a leading industry expert would be Jason Santa Maria, Derek Powazek or Jesse Bennett-Chamberlain.

Hey, nice site

Hey, nice site

Heh, I didn't even look until you said that, but yes, it is a very nicely done site. Was that the work of one of the previous winners?

If you're a student, this kind of thing is not bad - it's another thing to add to your resume, anyway.

[WSA Web Design]

The site was designed by 2 previous Australian competitors. One who came first in the World in 2005, the other who came 7th in 2007.

As mentioned, if you're a student, this kind of thing is great to add to your resume. A few of the regions are filling up quickly, so if you are interested I would reccomend to get your application forms in quickly :)
