Come join us to celebrate our launch!

After months of hard work and many lines of code later, we are excited to share our public launch with the Portland tech community. Join us at Epicodus on Thursday, April 16 as we release our crowdfunding video to celebrate our launch.

We will have beer, wine and snacks, and officially launch our first crowdfunding campaign on the Cogostar social crowdfunding platform. Money raised will fund scholarships to send veterans and their families to code school. RSVP so you don't miss out on this special night to remember.

About Operation Code: Operation Code is a Portland-based non-profit on a mission to help create new career paths for transitioning military veterans who want to go to code school and build careers in software development. Operation Code originally launched to expand the New GI Bill to include code schools, and since has expanded to provide scholarships, mentorship and employment services for our nation’s veterans. Currently, code school tuition, room and board is not covered by the New GI Bill for veterans who’ve served post-9/11 and Operation Code is on a mission to change that. Learn more at: operationcode.org, or follow on Twitter at @operation_code.

Don't miss this opportunity for veterans to learn about educational and career opportunities in Project Management, as well as an introduction to PMI Portland Chapter. This is a free event for military veterans and their spouses to learn about educational and career opportunities in Project Management. Active, reserve, guard, and retired are invited. All levels of project experience are welcome, too.
