Calling all aspiring developers!

One of South Florida's great strengths is our incredible diversity--cultural, intellectual, and linguistic. We speak languages from across the globe, English, Spanish, Creole...

But do you speak code? Or more specifically, do you speak .NET or want to learn?

Come join us for the first in a series of South Florida Speaks LaunchCode events which will highlight some of the most popular software development languages and technologies being used today. Our panel of experienced .NET developers will discuss the many ways Microsoft's C#-based development framework is used in web development, mobile development, and even cloud computing by thousands of companies and millions of developers around the globe. Panelists will also speak about the .NET community and .NET career paths here in South Florida.

Additionally, LaunchCode team members will be on hand to discuss how you can translate your interest and .NET skills into your dream job in development through the LaunchCode apprenticeship program.

Many voices. One language. South Florida speaks LaunchCode.

What are my transport/parking options getting to the event?

There's a Miami Dade College parking garage located on NE 5th Street between NE 1st Avenue and NE 2nd Avenue. You can tell the guards you are going to an event at the Idea Center, and they will give you a pass.
