Hi Laura,
I live in San Francisco and I'm a Senior Producer at
an internet travel company.
Have you looked at producer job descriptions to see
what skill sets people are looking for? I always find
this helpful so I can see what skills seem to be the
most important. Then I usually take classes in those
areas wherever they are available so I can expand my
skills.
This school does offer some on-line courses in areas
like HTML, CSS, Javascript, etc. I've been taking
classes at SFSU for a while and it's very good.
www.msp.sfsu.edu
A lot of companies want producers to have project
management and product management skills as well as a
solid understanding of basic web technology.
In fact, some web producer jobs actually ask that you
know how to write functional specs for new features
and functionality on a web site. I still don't know
the best way to acquire this skill other than learning
it on the job. Of couse, companies who require this
skill for a producer job usually aren't willing to
have you 'learn it on the job'. If anyone out there
has any suggestions on how to learn to write
functional specs, I'd like to know too!
I hope this helps a bit.
