Our inaugural boot camp, held in 2023, received high praise in the exit survey. This year, we are expanding the program by extending it to five days, increasing participant capacity, and incorporating valuable feedback from our 2023 cohort.
Thank you for your support in helping recruit applicants for the boot camp.
