We hear from a lot of people we talk to that they're not sure whether they're interested in a job in the tech f ield\, because they don't know enough about it. Sometimes\, they've even been told that "\;programming is hard to learn."\; At The Tech Academy\, we work hard to break down the barriers between people and tec hnology. We think that\, with the right approach\, anyone can learn to c ode - and whether you end up working in technology or not\, the principl es behind coding are useful in a lot of areas. The Tech Academy is offer ing a free course on Introduction to JavaScript. JavaScript is universal ly recognized as a foundational language. It is present in every platfor m imaginable: like browsers\, mobile\, and desktop applications. This co urse is perfect for people with little to no experience in programming w ho are curious about a career in software development. In this practical \, hands-on class\, you'll learn the basics of these popular technologie s - and along the way\, you should find out for yourself whether technol ogy and coding are something worth looking into a bit more deeply. Pleas e Note:---Make sure to bring your laptop\, as this will be a hands on le arning process where you get to actually write your own code. If you don 't have a laptop\, no worries\, you will be able to use one of ours.---A n RSVP is needed to guarantee a seat in the class\, though we may have a few open seats for last minute attendees.\n\nTags: meetup:event=2611097 15\, meetup:group=techacademy\, web design\, software development\, java script\, new technology\, internet professionals\, Web Technology\, web development\, programming languages\, mobile development\, agile project management\, cms (content management systems)\, object oriented program ming\, web programming\, computer programming\n\nImported from: http://c alagator.org/events/1250475561 URL:https://www.meetup.com/techacademy/events/261109715/ SUMMARY:Tech Academy Portland Meetup - Intro to JavaScript: A Free Coding Class at The Tech Academy LOCATION:The Tech Academy: 310 SW 4th Ave Suite 230\, Portland OR 97204 u s SEQUENCE:1 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
