Course

This course consists of a series of video lectures by the University Professor in Computer Science Todd McLeod. It is a first semester university level programming course and it contains over 20 hours of content that will help you understand why the Go programming language is the best language you can learn today. It will also help you acquire additional valuable programming skills including understanding environment variables, using a command line interface (CLI) terminal, understanding SHA-1 checksums, working with GitHub, and increasing your productivity with an integrated development environment (IDE) such as Webstorm or Atom.io. This course provides options for multiple workshop sessions, each focusing on a separate set of topics.

Once a workshop for this course is scheduled, the teachers will be given a code to access the course for free, courtesy of https://twitter.com/Todd_McLeod.

You can find all the course content at: https://www.udemy.com/learn-how-to-code/ and at https://github.com/GoesToEleven/GolangTraining/.

Note: Please also leave Todd a review as a thank you for creating this course for everyone. This will help other students find this course.

We will spend two days focusing upon the basics of the Go programming language. The curriculum of these two days will mirror the curriculum in my online course at Udemy. You can begin learning the curriculum for free now.

Outreach

This is a FREE workshop that is targeted at traditionally underrepresented groups in tech. Examples of such groups are women, people of color, Hispanics, etc. If you think you are underrepresented, you are probably right.
