Code-Alongs

What is a Code-Along?

Code-Alongs are live experiences taught by our instructors designed to prepare you for concepts found in the sprint challenges. They're your opportunity to work on complex job-ready problems in a live and engaging environment.

These sessions are 50 minutes in length and are offered seven days a week in the morning, afternoon, and evening. Because Code-Alongs delve deeper into a core competency, you will need to come to class prepared to have the best experience.

Ideal Code-Along Preparation Checklist

Code-Along 1: Architect and Train Neural Networks

This code-along focuses on architecting and training neural networks, reinforcing concepts from Modules 1 and 2. You'll work through realistic examples of building neural network architectures and training them effectively using Keras.
