CNM Website Developer
A CNM Website Developer (hereinafter, the Dev) is an incumbent of the introductory-quarter CNM practice job (hereinafter, the Practice) that The Economic Group has developed to practically introduce CNM learners to website development. The Devs generally practice in website projects undertaken to develop CNMCyber websites, including their contents, designs, information architectures, SEO, software, and WWW records. The Devs may develop either:
- Those CNMCyber websites and other CNMCyber products that the Devs are able to produce, or
- Those requirements that would allow hiring Careerprise contractors to develop those CNMCyber websites that the Devs don't produce directly, on their own.
The Practice belongs to CNMCyber Bootcamp (hereinafter, the Bootcamp), which first quarter's lessons are designed to prepare the Devs to that Practice. The Practice is offered to those enrolled in the Bootcamp who successfully pass CNM Website Development Exam after taking the first quarter's classes. Successful completion of the website development practice qualifies the Residents as Certified Website Development Associates.
Position
The Devs undertake website projects in order to develop CNMCyber websites. To learn about benefits, competencies, history, supervision, and target audiences, please consult the CNM practice job wikipage.
Choice of practice
- By default, the Devs choose Projects that suit them best. CNM Cyber Project Managers may ask a Dev to take an urgent or specific project when they know anything professional about the Dev. That means that the Devs have to choose their first endeavor at least.
- The work of the Devs is paid when they work on those endeavors that funding is authorized on the CNM Cloud Usable wikipage. That page contains links to:
- Endeavors that the Devs can work on. Those pages are called "endeavor pages" and are combined in the Category:CNM Cyber endeavors; for instance, WordPress for CNM Cloud.
- Products that should emerge as a result of the Devs work. Those pages are called "product pages" and are combined in the Category:CNM Cyber products; for instance, CNM WordPress.
- Any Dev is welcome to pick any endeavor he or she would like to work on. In addition, the Devs are encouraged to propose their own endeavors.
The Devs may also be offered to develop other CNMCyber products.
The Dev chooses the paid work from the Authorized work; alternatively, the Dev may propose own work, which may or may not be authorized for compensation.
Competencies
- No specific knowledge, skills, and abilities are required to begin. Vice versa, the Dev's position is created to build or refresh so-called soft skills altogether with some competencies in website architecture, content, search, and technology development.
- CNMCyber Team provides all of the interested candidates with free-of-charge training. Once again, no prior training and no experience are needed in order to get started. The Devs are encouraged to start from scratch and go where ever they dream.
How to start
- Are you interested in getting started as the Dev? Please follow a step-by-step instruction as follows:
- Until the first quarter lessons are developed, read (a) this very wikipage since it describes your website development practice overall, (b) the CNMCyber website wikipage since it describes the websites you are about to develop, (c) website project wikipage since it describes those projects that could be undertaken to develop websites overall, and (d) CNM Website Projects wikipage since it describes those projects that are authorized to practice with. Those wikipage contents are neither intuitive nor user-friendly yet; however, if you cannot read them, you cannot work.
- Ask questions. Questions are a huge part of your work; if you cannot ask, you cannot work. If you prefer videoconferences, attend any CNMCyber This Week event. You will have opportunities to ask questions and get responses in real time.
- Study this wikipage to be ready to discuss two topics: (a) what paragraph is intentionally left unclear and (b) what section can be taken out without big harm. You will be offered to discuss those topics during your job interview. Why? If you don't know your job, you cannot work.
- Understand why the Cyber project is undertaken and what value is expected from the Dev. That's simple. If you cannot deliver what the Customer pays for, you cannot work. Everything that the Customer pays for is stated on this very wikipage.
- Wait for 2-3 months if you cannot understand what your objectives are. There is a chance that the course and/or videos will be developed out of this wikipage during that time. The introductory courses will be available at https://cert.cnmcyber.com after registering at https://opplet.net/user/register ; the videos will be published on CNM Tube and YouTube. Some of course wiki-materials are linked to WorldOpp Orientation, Employableu Foundation, and CNMCyber Bootcamp wikipages
- Pick up your first endeavor at the CNM Cloud Usable wikipage when you understand what your objectives are. You may have no idea what that particular endeavor is about. First of all, no endeavor is fully clear and, secondly, to learn about one endeavor is always simpler that to learn about many. When you really studied this very wikipage, you should know how to go about that endeavor. If you cannot pick your project, you cannot start working as the Dev.
- Contact the Customer while stating (a) the effort you picked, (b) what you plan to deliver, and (c) how much time you expect to work in order to deliver what you plan to deliver.
- By the way, you can be paid to ask questions about this wikipage when you identify the endeavor behind that page.
Occupations
- The Dev's Practice touches many occupations. They may include one or more of the following:
- Architecture and design such as Human Factors Engineers and Ergonomists, Information Architects, as well as Web and Digital Interface Designers as long as the Devs design website contents, interfaces, and structures.
- Content creation such as Producers and Directors, Proofreaders and Copy Markers, as well as Writers and Authors as long as the Devs create website contents such as graphics, multimedia, and texts.
- Technology development such as Architectural and Engineering Managers, Software Developers, as well as Web Developers as long as the Devs work with the technologies behind the website.
- Web-search marketing as Search Marketing Strategists as long as the Devs work on search engine optimization (SEO).
Tools
What Devs produce
To develop CNMCyber websites, the Devs produce five categories of their first-level results. They are (1) Public contents, (2) SEO efforts, (c) Website designs, (d) WWW records, and, finally, (e) Functional websites. For the Devs, those results represent measurable outputs of the Practice.
Public contents
- For the purposes of this very wikipage, public contents refer to those audiovisuals, graphics, and texts that the website visitors shall be able to read, see, and/or hear.
SEO efforts
- For the purposes of this very wikipage, SEO efforts refer to those action plans that shall improve website's search engine optimization (SEO).
Website designs
- For the purposes of this very wikipage, website designs refer to those depictions that represent current or future website's appearance, including single webpages and website IAs overall.
WWW records
- For the purposes of this very wikipage, WWW records refer to those scripts of DNS record and lines of webserver code that are necessary for the website to be accessible on the World Wide Web (WWW).
Functional websites
- For the purposes of this very wikipage, functional websites refer to those websites that are powered by one or more content management systems (CMSs). The websites may represent functional prototypes, minimal viable products (MVPs), or marketables.
Projects
For the purposes of this very wikipage, projects refer to website projects, which are website development endeavors that are undertaken to create new products or new features of existing products. Projects are temporary endeavors; they close when CNMCyber Team receive all of the required deliverables and Careerprise contractors are compensated according to the contract. While working on projects, the Devs are engaged in the What Devs do activities.
Authorized projects
- Those Projects that are authorized to practice with are listed on the CNM Website Projects wikipage.
Project documents
- At CNM Wiki, Projects are documented using two types of wikipages:
- The progress on particular projects is reported on the CNM Website Projects wikipage.
- Project pages document everything, but progress reports. Those pages are listed at the "CNM website projects" category and include project documents such as project charter, asset register, competency register, stakeholder register, requirements traceability matrix, project scope baseline, project schedule baseline, project cost baseline, and acceptance criteria.
Project variety
- Main wikipage: Website project
Sets of processes
- Any endeavor can be viewed as sets of processes. On that very wikipage, those processes are grouped in nine sections of What Coords do.
- However, every of those groups, in fact, are separate developments on their own. For instance, the project formalization shall result in a project charter, but this document may be considered as an output of a separate development that requires its own formalization, studies, specification, planning, creation, and commissioning. Sometimes, it also requires hiring contractors and working with them. Thus, the sections of What Coords do show just some level of tentative divisions and do not represent definite classifications.
