Recognize your CIW certified students
The CIW Club ("CI-Dub Club") was inspired by April Branscome at Niceville High School in Niceville, FL as a way to openly recognize students who earn CIW certifications. "Being a member of the CI-Dub Club gives each individual student confidence that they have succeeded. Because of this confidence, they push themselves to a higher level with their Web design," states Branscome.

What the students are saying about CIW:
"The CIW exam has pushed me above and beyond other Web designers in my field."
-Jared M.
"CIW has helped me to accomplish a multitude of goals, such as being able to have a more thorough understanding of computers and Web design in general."
-Shannon M.
"CIW helps with achieving your goals, while setting a strong foundation for the rest of your life."
-Brian O.
Start Your Own CIW Club!
We think this is an excellent way to celebrate the achievements of each student and help communicate the benefits of the CIW program. Why not implement a similar program at your school?
Here's the basic idea, but feel free to make it your own:
- When a student earns a CIW certification, a personalized "CIW Club Member" certificate is awarded (Here's an example you can customize: .pdf | .psd)
- The certificate is placed on the classroom wall or hallway for all to see.
- The student receives a special CIW Club gift (lanyard, T-shirt, hat, etc.). Contact us and we'll get you started with 20 free CIW lanyards! You can also purchase official CIW apparel and gear.
- The student's name, certification and work examples are posted on a special CIW Club page on the school website.
- Your CIW Club web page will be listed in our member list below.
