Herizon Community Newsletter 11/2025

Halloween and Slush are gone and the Holiday season is only 3 weeks away (!!!) but we have just a couple more things to share, before we settle down for end of the year rest and recuperation and celebrations πŸŽ†

What's coming up? Read it all below πŸ‘‡


Last code mentoring of 2025 πŸ’»

We're joining forces with Codebar, bringing their workshops that make learning to code and getting mentored more accessible to the coders in our community. Codebar's goal is to enable minority group members to learn programming in a safe and collaborative environment and expand their career opportunities.
 
In this workshop, you will be paired with a technical coach (usually a senior developer) who will help you with your projects and learning.
