About this class

You’ve heard that a successful software engineering career can open up some pretty exciting opportunities - but if you don’t know the first thing about programming, you might be wondering where to start. Good news: you’re here.

This free, 2-hour session is the perfect starting point, covering the fundamentals of programming. You’ll learn about how the internet works, how data is accessed and stored, which programming technologies are most in-demand today, get a glimpse into a day in the life of a software engineer, and more.

By the end of this session, you’ll be ready for tomorrow where you’ll learn about the building-block languages of the web, and get hands-on practice to Build a Website with HTML & CSS. We’ll see you there.

Takeaways

  • Develop a deeper knowledge of how the internet works.
  • Understand the basics of databases, servers, and data centers and how they’re used.
  • Get insight into today’s most in-demand programming languages.
  • Build the confidence to continue learning to code.

Prereqs & Preparation

  • This is a beginner friendly series, so no prior knowledge is necessary.
  • A recording of every free workshop from Coding Week will be shared within a few business days after the week’s end.
  • This session will be held in a Zoom webinar, so your mic and camera will be off. We’ll interact through the Chat, Q&A, and reactions.
