We're sorry, Bruce. We’ve received your application, and would like to thank you for registering for the HTML150! We've had an overwhelming response with over 800 registrations for the Ottawa event alone and at this point we regret to inform you that we are unable to offer you a seat at the event.

What next? You're on the waitlist. We would have loved to extend an invite to everyone that registered but unfortunately, we only have room for 150 people!

Your name has been place on a waitlist for the Ottawa event on March 4th. What does that mean? It means that if any of the lucky selected attendees are unable to attend we’ll open the spots to wait- listers as they become available. You can expect to hear from us the week of the event.

Regardless, this is not the end of your learn-to-code journey! We want you to have access to the same learning-resources as attendees at the HTML500 & HTML150, which is why you can expect copies of the slide-deck, curriculum, and an e-learning resource that will help get you started right away.

Stay tuned, we'll be sure to let you know if seats become available! MY NEXT EMAIL
