Sisters Learning Code: HTML/CSS/JavaScript for Beginners

6-week workshop series

Our Sisters Learning Code Virtual Workshop Series is geared towards women of color looking to gain new skills and knowledge in order to continue to grow in their lives and careers. These sessions provide the basics of how websites are built, from HTML to building single-page applications. This series will also incorporate learning about version control using GitHub and how to collaborate with other developers. Upon completion of this series, attendees will walk away with the ultimate developer toolkit.

HTML, CSS, and JavaScript are the makeup behind all websites, and knowledge of them is a necessity if you are interested in things like web development, creating marketing emails, or even blogging!
