BlogJam Atlantic Preserve Retreat

A BlogJam Event (sponsored by Digital Nova Scotia): Each year, one of the resounding messages we receive from participants is that they leave BlogJam with an abundance of information (and lessons and tools and ideas). It’s easy to feel overwhelmed. It’s common to not know where to start — or even feel pulled to start over.

You'll be introduced to important concepts such as variables, types, conditionals and loops, and learn how to use an IDE to write more code even faster. (Not sure what any of that means? This workshop is perfect for you!) Who is this for? Our Ladies Learning Code workshops offer female-identified and […]
