Turing School of Software & Design

Turing School is excited to offer virtual Try Coding Workshops. These classes are an excellent way for any individual interested in programming to try their their hand at software development. Each workshop will have one Turing instructor and two teaching assistants in the virtual classroom who will guide you through a structured curriculum. Please note, there is an additional prework requirement of at least 30 minutes to prepare for these virtual sessions. Participants will have have access to a Teaching Assistant to support them with any prework questions in the days before class. 
Workshop Overview
This is a fast-paced, beginner level course in Front-End Engineering. Front-End Software Developers focus on the user experience and visual interface of a website or application. You'll get a glimpse into what a Front-End Software Developer does and learn how you can turn coding into a career. For this workshop, you should be comfortable with navigating the basic operations of a computer; such as copying and pasting text, navigating the internet through a browser, launching a video call via Zoom, and typing.

<H2>FAQ</H2>
Don't see the answer you need below? Questions? Email Anna Kummerlowe at anna@turing.io
1. How will I connect to the virual session?
You will need a computer for this class that can operate Zoom. When we send prework for the class (3 days before) we will send specific information on how to connect to the Zoom classroom we will be using. We recommend that you download Zoom now to ensure it is compatitble with your computer.
2. When will I receive the prework for class? What if I have questions about prework? 
Your instructor will send prework for the online class 3 days before class begins. At that time, they will also send the contact information of our Teaching Assistants (TA's). TA's will be available to answer any and all questions about prework and support you before class begins. 
3. What equipment should I have for this online class?
A computer that can connect to the internet via a web browser. We recommend using headphones to minimize distractions and ensure you can access the information. It will also be beneficial to find a quiet working space where you will be able to focus during the duration of the course.
4. I want to attend but I can't afford it. Are there any scholarships available?
We are offering scholarships on a limited basis for students with financial need. Please contact anna@turing.io for more information.
5. Are kids welcome?
Generally individuals aged 17+ can keep up with the class and are very much invited. This is a course designed for professtional level adults and is not student friendly. We ask that individuals under age 17 do not attend.
6. I’ve already practiced some code as a hobby or through Codecademy - will I still benefit from this course?
This course is designed for people who are brand new to code and have never tried it before. That doesn’t mean that those with some experience aren’t welcome or will not benefit from it, but some parts may be a review. If you are interested in a more advanced, Try Coding 2.0 workshop, please complete this interest form: http://bit.ly/2Tuhw13 and will will keep you udpated once it is scheduled.
7. What is the refund policy?
If for any reason you can’t make it to the event, tickets are refundable up to 24 hours before. If the event has passed then we are happy to transfer your ticket to an upcoming Try Coding.
*Cancellation of events are dependent on a variety of factors including registrations, inclement weather and pressing needs that come up. If we do cancel your Try Coding workshop, you will be notified more than 24 hours in advance, credited back your registration payment and sent the schedule of other events.
