This partnership furthers our mission to improve the connection between community, technology, and continuing education,” said Jeremy Snepar, CEO and Founder of NYCDA. The first course, Web Development 100, runs August 7 through November 27 and is designed to introduce beginners to the fundamentals of web development through an integrated curriculum covering HTML, CSS, and Javascript.
