As an emerging venture, iHub Liberia was able to successfully conduct two in-person boot camps using the Youth Crime Watch of Liberia computer lab prior to the COVID-19 outbreak.
These hands-on intensive Bootcamp classes were designed to provide participants with essential tools and techniques to design, develop, and manage professional websites. For over 6 weeks of instructor-led training, we provided participants with the concepts and skills to use HTML5, CSS3, and jQuery effectively.
Participants acquire hands-on practical skills from basic through advanced techniques to get the most out of their experience. They learned the basics of coding for web design, beginning with HTML and CSS and advancing to more complex HTML5 and JavaScript fundamentals. The syllabus was designed to teach the easiest way to learn modern web design, HTML5, and CSS3 step-by-step from scratch. The program approach enabled learners with little coding proficiency to focus on the most important aspects of coding and immediately apply their new coding skills to solve real-world problems. We successfully trained 27 young Liberians in two separate coding boot camps before the COVID-19 outbreak in Liberia.
