"Can I actually make a living building websites?" We hear this a lot in Hisar, usually from students who like computers but aren't sure design or coding is a real career here. The short answer is yes — but the route matters. Hartron runs two web courses that point in slightly different directions: CCWM (Web Designing and Multimedia) for the visual, creative side, and CWT (Web Technology) for the build-it-from-code side. Here's the honest picture of where each one leads.
What CCWM and CWT actually teach
CCWM is the design track. You learn HTML and CSS, but the weight is on visuals — Photoshop, Illustrator, CorelDRAW, layout, responsive design, and video editing basics. It suits people who enjoy how things look. CWT is the developer track. It goes deeper into HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, DOM work, hosting and deployment, with real project work — for people who enjoy how things work. Neither is better; they aim at different jobs.
Design gets people to stay on a page. Code makes the page do something. Most careers eventually need a bit of both — but you start by leaning into the side you enjoy.
The jobs these open (realistically)
After CCWM, the common first roles are web designer, graphic designer, and multimedia content creator — at local studios, print-and-digital shops, small agencies, or as a freelancer. It's also a solid foundation if you later want to move towards UI/UX. After CWT, the direction is junior web developer, frontend developer, or freelance web builder, and it lays the groundwork for full-stack learning down the line. In a town like Hisar, a lot of this work is either local business websites or remote/freelance — which we'll be honest about below.
CCWM vs CWT at a glance
| Detail | CCWM (Design) | CWT (Development) |
|---|---|---|
| Focus | Web design, graphics, multimedia | Coding websites end to end |
| Duration | 26 weeks | 52 weeks |
| Eligibility | 10th Pass minimum | 12th Pass |
| Fee | ₹10,000 (or ₹9,000 lumpsum) | ₹20,000 (or ₹18,000 lumpsum) |
| Best for | Visual, creative people | Logic, coding-minded people |
Both are NSQF-aligned courses at Hartron Hisar (a Government of Haryana undertaking). Fees and durations here are current at the time of writing — confirm the latest when you enquire.
Freelance vs a job: an honest look
Web skills are among the few that genuinely allow freelance and remote income from a place like Hisar — a designer or developer can take client work through referrals, local businesses, or online platforms. But freelancing rarely pays from day one. It needs a portfolio (real projects people can see), patience for the first few clients, and steady follow-through. A local job — at an agency, IT services firm, or a business that runs its own site — is often the more reliable first step, and you can freelance on the side as your portfolio grows.
How to start
- Pick your lean — do you enjoy the look of things (CCWM) or how they work (CWT)? Come and talk it through if you're unsure.
- Build as you learn — don't wait for the course to end. Make small real projects and keep them.
- Assemble a portfolio — 3 to 5 pieces you're proud of matter more than any certificate to a client.
- Start local, then widen — a first job or first few clients nearby, then remote and freelance work as you build a track record.
Frequently asked questions
Should I do CCWM or CWT?
If you enjoy the visual and creative side — graphics, layout, how a page looks — choose CCWM. If you enjoy logic and building things with code, choose CWT. Both open web careers; they just aim at design jobs versus developer jobs. If you're unsure, a counselling chat helps.
Can I really earn freelance from Hisar with these skills?
Yes, web design and development are among the skills that allow remote and freelance income. But it takes a portfolio of real projects and patience for the first few clients. Many people start with a local job and freelance on the side as their portfolio grows.
How long are CCWM and CWT and what do they cost?
CCWM is 26 weeks and costs Rs 10,000, or Rs 9,000 as a one-time lumpsum. CWT is 52 weeks and costs Rs 20,000, or Rs 18,000 lumpsum. Both are NSQF-aligned at Hartron Hisar.
Do I need coding experience before starting?
No. CCWM needs 10th pass and starts from the basics of design and simple HTML/CSS. CWT needs 12th pass and builds coding from the ground up. Neither assumes prior programming experience.
