So this may have been answered somewhere and I missed it... But I am wanting to do Web Design and Development as a career. What I am wondering is, do the classes here on Treehouse transfer into college credits? When I finish all the lessons here do I even need to worry about college credits? Just looking to plan my future a bit...

3,760 PointsEric Lindgren I do not think Treehouse works that way. There is no reason why you cannot be successful with Treehouse training, though. The teachers are extremely versed in all areas of technology and quite frankly, you will not find a better learning resource than here -- even in a formal institution. Gone are the days of archaic education!
I'm not saying do not get a formal education, that is something you have to decide. Success isn't measured by a piece of paper. There are many ups and downs in life and the choices you make dictate the life you lead.
Best regards.
