Develop New Skills

These are the courses I wish I had.

Ten years ago, I was a product manager in a web development team at a funded startup. We quickly spent a large portion of our budget building our web technology. Spending so much limited our ability to grow in the long run and we still didn't get the product that we envisioned in our heads. I came out of that experience realizing that I needed to learn to code: I saw it as one of the most valuable skills of the 21st century, as we all become more dependent on programmers - the people who are building the world around us.

Since then I've had success as a web developer building technology for Coca-Cola, Edison Nation, Toyota, Newell Rubbermaid, First Data, Bennigan's, and Getaround. I'm a self-taught programmer and after learning how to code online, I was able to get great job offers from multiple companies.

But learning to code wasn't easy - in fact there are tons of books, tutorials, and videos out there and it's easy to get overwhelmed. I was tired of wading through hundreds of resources and still not feeling like a confident web developer. So I ended up creating my own study plan - one that I knew would work. That's why I created this course - it's the course I wish I had when I was learning.

Becoming job-ready should be straightforward and the world needs more developers right now. You're getting a step-by-step guide, including things I learned on the job, boiled down into an all-in-one training course that shows you exactly what to do to get hired or build your own startup.
