ESA launches computer coding school
SA Business School has launched a computer coding school ‘ESA Coding Lab’ that will open next January. “We have teamed up with ITESCIA, a French information technology school which operates a ‘Coding Factory’, in order to benefit from their expertise on how to develop and manage a coding school,” said General Director of ESA Business School. It will be a tailoredmade short program of three months, the students get a certificate recognized by ESA, and an official certificate recognized by ITESCIA and consequently by France. There will be a general certificate and another for mobile applications. The program mainly targets young people holding Bachelor of Computer Science degrees or similar degrees. The courses will be given for free then the graduates will pay back their tuitions when they start working. The project aims to fill a technological gap because there is a lack of coding skills in Lebanon despite the existence of general computer skills,
