We put students first because they deserve nothing less – For students to risk putting their ideas on the table, instructors must be open to all of their ideas and not just the right ones.

Creating and maintaining a productive learning environment is collectively building the container for learning and teamwork to happen.

We believe that continuous improvement is the source of innovation. We lend an ear to both our fans and our critics to deliver better programs, better service, better communication, and better value..

We are a team of entrepreneurs who confront challenges head-on and figure things out. We value action, effort, commitment, and learning.

Technology changes quickly. Frameworks come and go, and languages rise and fall in popularity. For this reason, it's important that our students gain confidence in learning and adapting quickly rather than an ability to simply regurgitate syntax. This is often a hard concept for students to appreciate. Frequently, students enroll in the program with the false expectation that they will be taught "everything they need to know." These students tend to fixate on minor details and irrelevant peculiarities. Throughout our program, we encourage students to see the big picture by utilizing documentation, employing Google-fu, and learning via experimentation. Our graduates consistently describe this to be the single greatest lesson from our program..

In a six-month program built for beginners, we simply cannot delve too deeply into any one topic. Our role as educators, however, is not to train our students to be master of any one subject; rather, it is to provide them with a serious lay of the land so that they can continue building proficiency through independent study and on-the-job training. As educators, it's our responsibility to ensure our students have the basics and keep the big picture in mind.
