(When viewing the ATO schedule, look for the red & white icon indicating that the session will be livestreamed.) And then RSVP for CTD's Community Discussion, sponsored by our Alumni Network. We'll send you the Zoom link once you sign up.

 

Can’t make any sessions? No problem. Everyone is welcome to participate in the Community Discussion as we unpack the topics explored in the conference.

  2. Share info with your co-workers via your work Slack channels or email

If you are receiving this email for the first time, it's because you were enrolled in a CTD class. The CTD Alumni Network is a resource for CTD grads now working in the tech industry. We hope that this network will help alumni connect with each other, further alumni professional development, and offer ways to engage alumni in supporting current Code the Dream programs.
