CMS, Content Management System question...

[Orbital-Fetus]

so i'm applying for a job that requires the ability to build and edit templates within a CMS environment.
is this something that i can learn rather quickly?
i think a CMS environment would be just dragging and dropping info and images in.
i don't think it involves coding.

i have no web design experience, should this stop me from applying for it?

i honestly think u can learn any program like that over the course of 4 days... atleast enough to do it at a job....

its really dependant on your competency because chances are there are people at the job that were trained to do this and still cant do it well

If they are coming up with the design and you doing the tweak, it's super easy. Just look at a couple YouTube tutorials to get familiar with it. If your definitely building then it's gonna take some time.

Getting comfortable with Wordpress is very important. Are you playing with it using xampp?
