This session will serve as our official welcome to the Back to School Webinar Series. The opening will include special welcome messages from Members of Congress and supporters of the program.

Challengers will then be joined by Apple Education to learn about the fast-growing app economy and the tools and techniques that produce great apps. You’ll hear about Swift, an intuitive and open source programming language that’s easy to learn, yet powerful enough to make the some of the most popular apps on the App Store. And, you’ll learn about free resources from Apple to help you use Swift, Xcode, and the app design process that professional developers use to make apps for iOS, macOS, tvOS, watchOS and beyond.

You know the phrase “there’s an app for that,” but do you have dreams of being the brains behind those apps? The companies that make up the membership of the App Association have been there, done that, and want to share their stories with the aspiring innovators of tomorrow.

Join the App Association and the Congressional App Challenge to learn how to leverage your current or future coding skills into your own app or dev shop. You’ll hear from App Association members about their experiences and what they wished they had known when they were starting their own careers.

Panelists to be announced soon.

 

The Congressional App Challenge’s Back to School webinar series is free to attend and open to students, parents, educators, and Congressional App Challenge stakeholders. Please contact our team with any questions.
