About

Created by former Dev Bootcamp cofounder Jesse Farmer and RubyOnRailsTutor founder John Davidson, Code Union is an online solution to learning new technical skills without quitting your job. Currently, Code Union offers two courses, Fundamentals of Web Development and SQL Deep-Dive & Metrics. The Fundamentals of Web Development workshop is designed for people who want to be able to build their own prototypes, communicate more effectively with engineers, and/or continue to learn on their own over the rest of their career without feeling lost and disoriented. It is not meant to make people “job ready,” but develop solid fundamentals in software engineering and web development. Ideal for people in design, product management, marketing, ops, and other non-engineering roles that have to work regularly with engineering. Graduates will know their way around the command line, git, Ruby programs, and web applications, including HTML, CSS, and basic SQL and JavaScript. The program avoids advanced frameworks like Rails so students can learn the fundamentals of web development that apply to all web applications. By the end of the class, students will be comfortable building basic web applications, navigating pre-existing code bases, and learning more advanced material on their own without being overwhelmed. The SQL Deep-Dive workshop is designed for people who regularly work with data and want to get their hands dirty — or dirtier. Graduates will learn how to import and export data from a database, the ins-and-outs of SQL and database schema design, and some light programming to write scripts that interact with the database engine of your choice. The program also cover some basic statistics and analytics so you can both ask and answer the right questions. Students will use PostgreSQL as our primary database engine, but will also cover other engines like MySQL and SQLite for comparison. After the workshop, students will be comfortable enough in any database engine that they will be able to focus primarily on the queries they want to write.

We designed this workshop for professionals who want to dive deep into SQL, the language that powers relational databases like MySQL and PostgreSQL. We assume no prior knowledge, but be warned — we're going deep into SQL-land! By the end, students will be able to translate product, operational, and marketing questions directly into SQL. In addition, we'll cover the basic principles of statistics, analytics, and data science so that students can ask better questions and meaningfully interpret the answers.

This workshop covers core topics in pure computer science, with an emphasis on data structures and analysis of algorithms. You'll learn all about lists, trees, graphs, and the algorithms associated with them. The workshop is still hands-on, so expect to be implementing these data structures and algorithms by hand. We'll implement each structure in multiple languages, to see how different languages make it easier or harder to express certain computational ideas.
