Fullstack Academy expands partnership with University of San Diego as region is poised to lead tech growth nationally – University Business
In response to burgeoning interest in its recently launched cyber bootcamp, Fullstack Academy announced it has expanded its partnership with the University of San Diego (USD) with the establishment of a program that teaches web programming skills.
One of the longest-running and most successful coding bootcamps in the country, Fullstack Academy brings the program to a market that experienced a 19.7% increase in software and technology jobs over the past two years, according to CBRE Tech. The growth supports a Wall Street Journal report that San Diego is one of the top five cities responsible for 90% of U.S. high-tech job growth.
Coupled with job growth projections indicating San Diego will add about 8,500 tech-based positions in the next 10 years, demand for skilled professionals will be essential to meet the needs of regional development projects such as a 2.6 million-square-foot Amazon distribution center and the Otay Crossings Commerce Center. Examples of jobs students will qualify for include web developer, software engineer and full-stack developer.
