Hello everyone!

We are looking forward to meeting you all at TechMeetups London Silicon Roundabout Xmas Party #tmuxmas on 17th December! - Don't forget to wear something red!

Although TechMeetups doesn't have planned events for December, except the Xmas party, these are the events we strongly recommend you to check out:

1.

CareerFoundry is an online training platform for Web Development or UX Design for people who would like to upskill their knowledge or start a new career in tech. Learning can be a lonely business. Without guidance or support it can be an uphill struggle to stay motivated when learning a new skill. And, let’s face it, self motivation isn’t always enough. At CareerFoundry we understand learning is something that’s easier together. Which is why we have expert mentors to guide our students through course, supporting them as they learn.

CareerFoundry are announcing a Black Friday deal on all of our courses, where we'll be knocking off 70% of the course price at 4am on Friday 28th November, and then 40% from 10am til Midnight.

2. Another addition of the Weekend Crash Course in Coding (Ruby on Rails) over the weekend of 13th-14th December. Hurry up and book your TMU discounted ticket HERE

Thank you!

Warm Regards,
Silvi

BLACK FRIDAY for Your Tech Career

Do you want to be working in tech next year?

We can get you there.

We’re coming to the end of another year, Christmas is around the corner and in the New Year our thoughts will turn once more to new jobs, fresh starts and doing all of those things we’ve been promising ourselves all year.

So it’s time to start thinking NOW about what you want to be different NEXT YEAR.

Is it time to retrain, upgrade your current skillset or try something completely different?

At CareerFoundry we want to help you achieve those New Year’s resolutions by giving you a MASSIVE discount on our tech courses in our Black Friday Deal! This won’t be any old discount - this will be a huge discount - starting at 4am your local time on Friday 28th November, all subscriptions will be 70% off for the first month!

So how will it work?

At 4am (your local time) on Friday 28th November this discount code “blackfriday70” will entitle you to 70% off the first month of our Web Development and UX Design courses.

This code will be valid until 10am (your local time)  when the discount will drop to 40% off and you will need to use the discount code “blackfriday40” to get your 40% discount off the courses.

That’s right! The early bird catches the worm….

What do you do with your discount code?

• With your discount code go straight to the enrollment page after signing up
• and choose your course in UX Design or Web Development.
• Select which course plan you’d like to enroll in, Paced, Part Time or Full Time
• Choose your start date from the drop-down menu
• Type in your payment details
• On the right hand side, click on “Have a discount code?” and type in your code (see screenshot below).
• Then click on Complete My Enrollment.

So set your alarm clocks, or stay up all night if you have to, just be ready for when that first discount code goes live at 4am your local time on Friday 28th November!

Don’t miss this opportunity to level up your career for next year!
