About this event

Looking to transition to a career in tech? Let us help you on your journey!


Grand Circus has partnered with the Royal Oak Public Library for these FREE workshops.


There are now over one million open computer-programming jobs. Here at Grand Circus, we aim to help fill those positions, one coder at a time.


We believe anyone can become a developer. Our core values reinforce the belief that


THE TECH INDUSTRY SHOULD REFLECT THE DIVERSITY OF OUR COMMUNITY


We live in a diverse community. Why shouldn’t we work and learn in one too?


This FREE Intro to Coding Workshop is open to everyone and is designed for those curious about coding but with little or no coding experience. Never seen a line of code before? No problem! Basic computer knowledge is required for the best workshop experience.

This critical first step towards your new career will provide you with basic programming terminology - like syntax (trust us, it’s important!) and allow you to practice basic programming ideas. You will leave with a finished product to show off to your friends and family - that's pretty cool.

Our workshops are taught by Grand Circus alumni who are currently working in tech. They have a wealth of knowledge about Grand Circus and the tech community - and they love talking about both! Once you complete this workshop, you will have a solid understanding of the next steps to become a developer through attending a Grand Circus Bootcamp.
