The Borderless Dev Hub, which has raised 22 students so far, has had triple the number of students pass through the cipher sessions since its inception and has created a sense of belonging and impeccable mentorship over the past 2 years, is currently building the Borderless Academy.
The development of Borderless Academy was inspired by the vision to create a space where budding developers and tech enthusiasts from all over the globe could learn, connect, and grow together. The academy was born from recognizing how important flexibility, accessibility, and community are to modern learning.
Before we discuss the new and exciting features to be unveiled in detail, let’s consider the achievements Borderless has made so far with the cipher sessions.
Borderless held its first cipher session in 2022, which graduated just one student, Ebube Anyanwu, who is currently a front-end engineer and Web development and design tutor at Borderless. Since then many more have been achieved with many one-time students, making waves in their respective stacks, earning well, and giving back to the community.
In expanding its territories and reaching a global audience, Borderless is developing its academy that is accessible to anybody around the globe for free, as long as you are accepted to enroll based on the requirements. Borderless also prioritizes flexibility, and with the help of recorded classes, students can learn at their own pace and even revisit lessons to better understand.
The Academy Chatroom
Learning is about more than just watching classes; it’s about connection. That’s where the academy’s chatroom will come in. Designed to be a space for discussion, support, and collaboration, the chatroom will become the heart of Borderless Dev Hub’s Academy.
This digital commons will let students ask questions, share insights, solve challenges together, and build a network of peers and mentors. It is going to foster a sense of community that fuels personal and professional growth in tech. Imagine a learner from Lagos connecting seamlessly with someone in Florida, sharing knowledge and supporting each other’s progress. The chatroom will transform the academy from a simple learning platform into a vibrant learning community.
Staying Updated
Keeping students informed, engaged, and excited about what’s coming is also key. That’s why Borderless Dev Hub will have an “Updates” session. This feature will make sure learners stay up-to-date with the latest courses, new modules, special announcements, and tech industry trends.
For the team at Borderless Dev Hub, learning isn’t just about individual achievement; it’s about staying connected to the larger tech world. This Updates session will let every student feel part of something bigger, a community tuned in to the pulse of development.
