In a first collaboration with a major university, Washington-based coding bootcamp Coding Dojo and MIT are collaborating to launch a coding and innovation bootcamp for entrepreneurs.
The 10-week program will commence on September 14, 2020. The program will kick off with an intensive three-week online bootcamp led by MIT instructors, which will train the participants in entrepreneurial problem discovery and building a business model based on the solutions.
"The Coding and Innovation Bootcamp offers an opportunity to learn core innovation principles from MIT Bootcamps and coding from Coding Dojo, a unique learning experience and deep dive into what it takes to be a successful entrepreneur," said MIT Bootcamps Director Vimala Palaniswamy in a statement. "From ideation to customer discovery, we will teach you how to think like an entrepreneur."
The following six weeks online will be focused on learning web and software development fundamentals like HTML, CSS, and basic JavaScript and Python programming.
