004: Is The Barrier to Entry Too Low in Web Design?

Kevin Geary

A lively debate exploring the implications of people being able to easily set up shop in the web design industry. Is it a good thing? Is it a bad thing? Is it good for the industry long-term, or not? And what challenges do our clients face under this model?

Throughout the show, we examine questions about the value of formal education in web design, the importance of understanding underlying web technologies, and the balance between democratizing web design and maintaining professional standards.

We encourage listeners to share their own experiences and opinions on this topic, whether they're seasoned professionals, newcomers to the field, or business owners.

Join us for this insightful exploration of one of the most relevant discussions in today's digital landscape, as we ponder whether the ease of entry into web design is a boon for innovation or a challenge to professional standards.
