This learning center works with the various Tech portfolios to help accelerate the software development transformation through their associates with an approach of learning by doing. These initiatives are taught and led by inspiring experienced software engineers and designers who have first-hand exposure to the technologies and roles their students strive to obtain. We need an energetic, empathetic, intelligent, hardworking and motivated individual who can instruct our development courses and establish this new approach to technical learning at The Home Depot.
