Learn to Code Teacher + Student Workshop

For the first time, NETA is partnering with Apple and Metro Community College at the DoSpace to offer a Swift Coding workshop.

This isn’t just your normal coding workshop. It’s been specifically designed around a student AND a teacher working TOGETHER to both learn Swift and learn how to teach Swift.

We’ve also set up the structure in a unique way – each student and teacher pair will attend the workshop on Wednesday (3/27) and Thursday (3/28). Then, on Friday you will attend the NETA conference where you’ll present a poster session to share what you learned and created!

Registration is only $149.00 FOR THE PAIR! This registration includes the two day workshop, lunch on Wednesday & Thursday, AND Conference registration for Friday.

Skate For Change

This year NETA is giving back. We would like to encourage you to bring a new pair of socks to support NETA’s Friday Keynote Speaker, Mike Smith’s Skate for Change Organization.
