Ever wanted to learn to code, but just haven’t found the right class? Have you been thinking about expanding your programming skill set, but have been nervous to try? Maria can help! Maria is part of our Engineering team here at MarkITx working on the front-end and using frameworks such as Backbone. Having volunteered for the Adler Planetarium's Girls Do Hack event last year, she has developed a strong interest in continuing to help out in the community.
Beginning June 9th, Maria will be teaching a Summer of JavaScript: JS101, Intro to JavaScript. This is four-week series from Girl Develop IT that will take place on Mondays June 9, 16, 23, and 30 from 6-8:30pm.
Girl Develop It is an international non-profit that exists to provide affordable and accessible programs to women who want to learn software development through mentorship and hands-on instruction.
This workshop is targeted at beginners to programming. JavaScript is the programming language that makes web pages interactive, and is now used these days to make servers, robots, and pretty much all the apps you’ve grown to love. That makes it one of the most useful first languages to learn if you’re just getting started and particularly if you have an interest in web development (just like me!)
The cost of the course is $100* and classes will be held over at Dev Bootcamp, 351 W Hubbard, 7th floor. I hope you’ll consider signing up.
Space is filling up fast so head over to their Meetup page and RSVP for this 4-week course today!
