The West Virginia Coding Club had the privilege of having Shannon Bisceglia, Client Success Manager and Jenavieve Dance, Career Advisor and Community Manager for Treehouse.
Treehouse's mission is to diversify the tech industry through accessible education, unlocking the door to opportunity, and empowering people to achieve their dreams. Offering courses to individual learners, internal company teams, and third-party education providers, Treehouse helps to bridge the gap between formal educational institutions and on-the-job requirements.
Shannon and Jenavieve took time to explain the Treehouse platform showing its full range of benefits, including learning tracks, library, community and code adventures. The Treehouse platform is not just for learning, but it enables participants to launch or relaunch their career journey, with tools to prepare for their future careers or take the next step up with their current career.
