I would say that the CIW design courses are an excellent supplement to someone who already tinkers with a bit of Web design stuff. It teaches you all the things that you wouldn't pick up from a book on 'how to learn Dream weaver in a weekend'. It is more business focused than hands on but it does tell you stuff that you need to know if you want to be taken seriously as a designer.
I've done both iNet+ and CIW foundations. They cover mostly the same stuff, but foundations has more questions about design and management with less protocols and IP addresses.
It's worth checking which version the trainer is offering. Foundations changed to Version 5 just before I sat it, and the others are changing around now. I only found out because I was trying to buy a textbook from computerprep and exam simulation from ucertify.
