F.A.Q.

1) What's a "Live Class"?

We'll jump on Learn (Le Wagon learning platform) where lecturers will briefly explain the key takeaways of the module of the day. Then, we'll do some Live code together! Throughout the lecture, there are teachers answering to your questions and concerns, live on the same platform.

*Live Classes will be most useful for participants who complete the learn module on their own before the session.

2) What's "Slack"? What will I do there?

Slack is the communication platform we'll use to have all the members engaged and share all the info about the program. We'll use Slack to keep on communicating after each live class is over. You will have space to pose your doubts on code you've been doing, to check out other tech-events or to mingle with your fellow colleagues!
