Advice On Web Development Education

Question

History about me: After high school i got into a very good university to study electrical engineering, but just a couple months into the first semester i developed epilepsy. It and side effects from its medication completely ruined my life. My memory suffered and I couldn't do basic math calculations. I failed every single course. So i took a break from studying and after a year of no significant improvement in health I decided to study something with less math and went with Environmental Sciences. After four semesters depression took over, started failing everything again. It has been six years since it all began and i want to continue my education.
Since a lot of programmers come to this forum I thought i'd ask this here. I'm thinking of getting into web development. I have already learnt the basics of HTML and CSS from the internet (Codecademy and others) and i am getting the hang of it. I no longer want to get a full 4 years degree. So i wanted to know if a short 2-6 month course that teaches html, css, php, java script is good enough or should i consider a 2 year associates degree that teaches a little more.
Thank you.

Answer 1

I could say you go for the formal associates degree because, well, they will first look into your diploma, then your skills, but if that means you have to suffer from depression again, I'd be feeling guilty for bad input, then I suggest you go for the short courses.
I hope you can find peace, health, and wish you good life ahead mate, don't give up, go for your dreams.

if you give a lot of your time to solo coding, then you can achieve more than you ever Dreamed of.
...note: not everyone who has a certificate can defend it, believe in yourself and follow your own decisions and you can be the best👍

Create your own job. Self employment doesn't require a paper that says you have the skills to accomplish a set of pre-defined tasks. Find the intersection of what you like and what you're good at. Make the world a better place. Recalculate your situation by focusing on the opportunities that are in front of you now, not the ones that were taken from you. Do what you like. Define your task. Get the skills. Make shit happen. I'm not a programmer.
You don't need to be a programmer to change the world, and you don't need a diploma to be a programmer. Many successful people have taught themselves various skills. Books, internet, find where it's at and go get it .. if it's at University, go there, you can spread your degree while working on related projects ... As for some concrete material : check this thread.
Hope I'm helpfull. Never, give up.
