Program Topics
This program is organized into three main modules using the MERN stack: Web Development, Front-End Development/React, and Back-End Development. Each module builds on the next, and is designed to prepare you to enter the job market as an entry-level full stack developer, or to specialize in one of these areas with further skill development.
Capstone Project
In the final part of the program, learners will need to develop a fully functional website using the MERN stack for their final project. They’ll be able to add this website to their GitHub portfolio to highlight their programming skills. This assignment will be graded by your Learning Facilitator, who will provide personalized feedback.
