About the Master program

CAWEB stands for “Création et Administration de sites Web,” which means “Website Creation and Administration.”

Yes. We offer optional in-person events each year, in France or abroad.

Yes. Each instructor provides an email address for questions. We use Moodle for course materials, and you can also use the forum to get in touch with instructors.

No. The diploma does not mention that the program was taken online.

Depending on the course, you may complete an individual assignment or a group project.

No. You can register for the 1-year format and later decide you need more time. If you do, you will re-register for the remaining unit(s) and pay the corresponding fees. You can find unit details on the website under “Programs” or reach out if you have questions.

Yes. Internships are optional. The university does not partner with private companies to place students, but we share opportunities we receive. If you would like to do an internship, please contact the program coordinator about the required agreement with the University of Strasbourg.

We are building partnerships so students can benefit from our network. We have partners in the United States and Canada, as well as in several European cities. We are also part of a group of European universities, which allows students to take courses through partner institutions. We also partnered with employed.world in Berlin, which regularly hosts mentoring events.

Common career paths include digital communication, SEO, project management, UX design, UX research, accessibility, UX writing, content design, and freelancing.

Yes. Students can reach out to the team for academic support and guidance related to studies, internships, or career opportunities.

Tuition information

Tuition varies depending on the program and whether you choose the 1-year or 2-year format.

Yes. However, the certificate does not award ECTS credits under the French higher-education system. It is a non-degree certificate based on the program’s format and hours. This certificate is designed for career changers and professionals who want to build or deepen skills in UX design, accessibility, and usability.

You can pay tuition online by credit card or bank transfer. If you need a payment plan, please contact the team before paying so we can confirm what options may be available. Payment plans may be available to students regardless of where they live. Students who have worked in France may also be able to use CPF funding (“Compte Personnel de Formation”).

No. There are no additional fees. Tuition includes courses, assessments, and access to the learning platform. Travel costs for optional in-person events are the student’s responsibility. We share event details months in advance so students can plan ahead. If enough students register to attend an event, we may be able to request support from the Erasmus office.

We do not offer scholarships for students who live outside France. Students living in France should contact their regional authority, France Travail, or Transition Pro to ask about possible financial assistance.

International students

All classes are taught in English.

Yes. You can apply from anywhere. You will need a 4-year degree and/or VAPP (Validation of Acquired Professional and Personal Experience), depending on your situation.

Yes. During the interview, we assess your English level. We expect students to communicate clearly in speaking and writing and to meet at least a B2 (CEFR) level, which is an upper-intermediate (“independent user”) level.

Our instructors come from different countries, so you may hear a range of accents. If you’d like a sense of that, you can listen to instructor interviews (Katarina Lechner, Carolyn Gubala, and Marie-Aude Sourd-Ramos).
For the expected reading level, you can also refer to Steve Krug’s Don’t Make Me Think, Revisited.

No. Exams are online.

No. Live sessions are recorded and posted on Moodle shortly after class (or the next day). You can follow the program asynchronously as long as you meet assignment and assessment deadlines.
