How terrible is my friends site?

It's okay, actually.

I was thinking it was too edgy, but computer security is a bit more "underground" than other distance-learning subjects.

Good choice to use a CMS instead of reinventing the wheel.

No idea what the logo's meant to be, though. Maybe contract that out to some guy on fiverr.

Not bad overall, looks a bit 2000s-y. Maybe drop the gradient on the navbar? Make it flat like the tabs or lower heading.

- too dark
- where's all the stock photos of laughing businessmen

Text could do with some application of the "so fucking what" test*, and the tabs-within-tabs have got to go.

Re-write the content so it says the same thing in less space and doesn't need to be broken up into subtabs.

The headline "Training" is a waste of space: the user doesn't need a breadcrumb because they just arrived to the frontpage and they know it. That space should be your summary of your value proposition: "FreeCST offers free training in Computer Security". It's the first thing the user will read, so you want it to answer the question "what the fuck is this, and what can it do for me?".


* for each and every word, imagine someone asked you "so fucking what? Why does this word have to be there?". If you've not got an answer, the word has no business being there wasting your reader's attention. Example: "The lift is out of order; please use the other lift" --> "out of order".

This. Less is more. "Can this go?" if the answer is yes, it goes.

And I know they were all the rage years ago, but get rid of the "Training" dropdown menu. They're a nuisance on mobile devices (where you can't hover over a link) and usually there's a better alternative.
