![]() After 8 weeks of rigorous daily classes, students from Shiprock High School graduated from the Cultivating Coders summer bootcamp and are now Junior Software Developers! Cultivating Coders is a New-Mexico born and locally-based nonprofit dedicated to providing coding training to rural and underserved communities. A W.I.O.A (Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act) certified traveling coding bootcamp, Cultivating Coders brings laptops, instructors, and technical training in web application development to rural and underserved urban areas with help and vision from organizations and partners that provide space, internships and equipment. Teach for America helped support this program and Navajo instructors helped make the bootcamp a success. The recent cohort of students learned 5 web development languages including HTML, PHP, JavaScript and more, and completed personal and community projects including building an online yearbook and new website for Shiprock High School. The graduates also established the first Coding Club at Shiprock High School. More Coding bootcamps are already scheduled including courses starting in August in Las Cruces, in September in Farmington and Albuquerque, and next winter in Santa Fe.
