We love the Ruby programming language for its natural, human-focused design philosophy and think you will too. That’s why we teamed up with Udacity to bring you three new Ruby Nanodegrees, starting with Beginning Ruby.
Beginning Ruby is open for enrollment now, with Ruby on Rails and Senior Ruby on Rails becoming available in 2016.
In each of the Nanodegree programs you will learn from Udacity’s expert instructors, with supplemental interviews and content from GitHub Ruby instructors Jesse Toth and John Britton.
With a commitment of 10-15 hours per week, students complete a Nanodegree in an average of 4-9 months, at a cost of $200 per month with 50% returned upon graduation in some cases.
Partnering with Udacity to create the Ruby Nanodegree series is a step to help close the talent gap and empower aspiring developers to gain new skills.
