Guest Speakers

Share your story with our students.

Part of the Careers in Code initiative is not only to provide our students with the technical skills they need to become developers, but also to teach them the necessary soft skills needed in the professional world. We've found the best way to expose them to such important topics is to bring in industry professionals who are passionate about sharing their knowledge about their own experiences. We are looking for folks to come talk to our students about important skills they should have upon graduation (soft and technical skills). These workshops include topics such as: interviewing (behavioral and technical), networking, social media, personal branding, people skills, getting involved in the tech community, open source, etc.
