Current Curriculum
Unit 1. JavaScript Foundations
JavaScript Foundations is an introduction to coding through the Javascript programming language. Here we will cover foundational concepts and data structures that will help us think like a developer.
Unit Two: REACT
Building upon our new JavaScript skills, we now introduce React. A powerful Javascript library used to build more complicated user interfaces.
Unit Three: Intermediate React
With a strong understanding of the foundations in React, it’s time to take our skills to the next level. We introduce higher-level concepts and build several full-day projects, bringing all these skills together.
Unit Four: Ruby
Ruby is a backend, object-oriented programming language. Here we will cover the fundamentals of the Ruby language and revisit the fundamental concepts shared by many programming languages.
Unit Five: Intro to Postgres and Ruby on Rails Models
Rails is a full-stack framework built into the Ruby programming language. Here we will focus on the model layer of the MVC architecture pattern through a deep-dive into Active Record and persistence storage with Postgres.
Unit Six: Ruby on Rails
In this section, we explore all the Ruby on Rails MVC architecture has to offer. We build our first full-stack application as well as look at how to create
a backend-only Rails application.
Unit Seven: Professional Development Week
Professional Development Week is an entire week dedicated to preparation for internship and the upcoming career transition. Here we leverage LEARN’s Career Services Manager to curate tech resumes, share each student’s portfolio, improve online professional presence, develop networking techniques for every personality, practice technical interview skills, and learn about salary negotiations.
Unit Eight: Cat Tinder! Combining React and Rails
Here we explore our first decoupled, full-stack application. The application will utilize a React frontend and a Ruby on Rails backend, leveraging all the concepts we’ve covered so far.
Unit Nine: React in Rails and Authentication
There are many ways to create a full-stack application. This section uses Ruby on Rails to host React components in a monolithic application. We also introduce Devise, a Ruby gem that allows us to create a user login.
Unit Ten: Capstone Project
The capstone project is the peak experience at LEARN academy. Students work in small groups to create a full-stack web application. Acting as a development team, the students use agile and scrum project management techniques to plan, wireframe, code, and deploy an application.
Across many industries and sizes, we’ve developed relationships with numerous companies.
