THE CENTER OF GRAVITY FOR ENTREPRENEURS IN TEXAS

[In-Person Austin] Hack Reactor Prep – 4 Week

November 28, 2016 @ 6:30 pm - December 22, 2016 @ 9:30 pm
RSVP FOR THIS EVENT | $795

“I recently completed the Reactor Prep program. I began with VERY little programming experience, and over the course of four weeks, learned a considerable amount.

I enrolled in order to test the waters of programming to see if I liked the field. This was an excellent introductory course and I learned so much more than I expected. It was an amazing value, and I recommend it highly to anyone interested in an intro to programming.

– Jack H., Hack Reactor Prep ATX Graduate

— Program Details —

Prerequisties:

We HIGHLY recommend that all students complete Codecademy’s free JavaScript module prior to the first day. This will give you a basic introduction to the concepts, vocabulary, and syntax of JavaScript covered in the course.

Phase 1: Programming Fundamentals

The goal of Phase 1 to give students skills and confidence with JavaScript fundamentals. This will include an under-the-hood look at programming methods used across all languages. Topics include:

  • Browsers and text editors
  • Variables and naming
  • Arrays and Objects
  • Conditionals
  • Looping/repetition
  • Functions

Phase 2: Problem Solving Practice

The goal of Phase 2 is to apply the programming fundamentals that you’ve learned to problem statements. You will work on a variety of exercises, including some that mimic the Hack Reactor and MakerSquare interview.

  • Debugging and troubleshooting
  • Abstraction and modularization
  • Solving word problems with code
  • Developer mentality
  • Testing
  • Handling complexity
  • Tidy coding
  • Autonomous coding

Throughout the program, you will also work on strategies to problem solve when under the pressure of an interview situation. This culminates in a 1×1 mock interview with a staff member.

  • Technical communication
  • Interview practice
  • Advanced toy problems
  • Recipe for success
  • Performance self-analysis
