Yeah!! General Assembly Offers 500€ Scholarship for betahaus Members

Learn Front End Web Development at GA Berlin! With a 500€ Scholarship for betahaus Members! We’ve all had days when we feel like a cog in the machine. We want bigger. We want better. And we want to do our own thing. We look at Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezos or Marissa Mayer and think, “Hey, I could do that!” While the road is long and winding, there’s one very good place to start. If you want to leap into the world of technology and launch your own business, basic programming skills are essential.

To fuel your ambition, the new Berlin campus of General Assembly is offering a 10-week course on Front-end web development. The intensive introductory course will help you build fluency in HTML, CSS and Javascript so you can understand web development best practices, build your own prototypes, and launch websites that people love to use.

To enter, write 200 words or less answering the questions: “What excites you? What inspires you? And what gets you out of bed in the morning?” and submit your response to Berlin@GeneralAssemb.ly.
