We’ll also feature a special guest speaker Grant Imahara, formerly of the Mythbusters. Grant is also for his work as an animatronics engineer and modelmaker for George Lucas’s Industrial Light and Magic working on the Matrix sequels, A.I., Galaxy Quest, Terminator 3, Van Helsing and Star Wars: Episodes 1-3. Plus, there will be an exciting attendee party at Boston’s famous Museum of Science. You can get all the details at http://teleriknext.com.
I wanted to extend an invite to all the user group’s we’ve supported around the world to attend TelerikNEXT by offering you a $50 discount off the conference pass.

Special offer to Chapter Members

“I’m Ali with Make School. We are still accepting applications for our Summer Academy, and we are hoping you will pass this message along to your ACM members interested in iPhone application development.

The Make School Summer Academy is designed to expand our students’ knowledge of programming so they can successfully ship their own original product to the App Store by the end of our accelerated eight week-long, in-person course.

Here’s a brief, high-level overview of our program:

  • 3 weeks learning Swift by cloning successful apps and solving programming challenges
  • 5 weeks learning about the product development process by building an original app of your own design
  • Network face-to-face with industry experts at top companies at any one of our three locations (San Francisco, Silicon Valley & NYC)

In the past many of our top students have come from ACM chapters, so we set up a custom link for those interested in applying: www.make.sc/acm . Feel free to email me anytime if you have any questions.

Thank you and have a great day!
