Digital Literacy and the Future of Work w/ Joshua Borts, Lighthouse Labs
In this episode, we hear from Josh Borts, Co-founder and Chief Financial Officer at Lighthouse Labs.
Lighthouse Labs teaches people to learn to code in 12 weeks and do it in a way that truly prepares students for amazing careers. Lighthouse Labs combines a mentor's community of 60+ full-time developers with an agile curriculum that emphasizes building real software. This has allowed them to achieve a great result for its students: a 93% employment rate for job-seeking graduates within 120 days of program completion.
Lighthouse Labs' flagship program is its Web Development Bootcamp. The curriculum they teach is based on JavaScript, but the real emphasis is on the ability to "learn to learn" and the best practices you need to succeed in Canada's fastest-growing industry.
