but there, and I'll try to do it really quickly. Um, I think that most of my career and path has been around technology and trying to figure things out and do new and cool things, and somehow that just always, that curiosity, I think, is the thing that was the driver for me. I never was incredibly ambitious person, and I don't know that I am today. And a lot of people in entrepreneurship seemed to be. I think I'm just incredibly curious. So my career spanned working on Jumbotrons and transmitting secure data on D O D installations and a myriad of different things where it was me asking the question of How come nobody has done that before and then just go in and figuring it out? And somehow that always led me into the next cool thing. I'm not really sure how I've been pretty fortunate. A Sfar starting the school, Um, well, you fast forward through a lot of that career and I find myself owning a software development company where we do custom software development, and I have a few friends that are also in startups and doing software, and were complaining that it's hard to hire developers and that the computer science graduates we're getting are failing our Web development in mobile development interviews. And we said, Well, why don't we recruit one of those boot camps to come to our town and teach people? And we called a few of them and they said, No, we don't want to come to San Antonio, But if you want to start, one there will show you how we did it. And, ah, few folks showed us how they set up their schools and we created one to meet our need. Onda, help the community get more developers to help us have a startup scene. Next thing you know, code up was bigger than my other company. And the thing that we started as a side project in a coworking place kind of became what it is today. So it was by accident, but still very hard

so our classes are pretty. Uh, it's hard. It's pretty regimented. It's over. 670 hours of live instruction. Um, so how many in a week you're their 9 to 5? Monday through Friday, actually, during Cove in. We're doing 9 to 5 Monday through Friday but half day Wednesdays and we extended the program by two weeks to make up that time. So, however you want to slice it, it's essentially a 36 to 40 hours in class every week. That's live Instructor led, typically residential, but during Cove it we are virtual, but it is live, not pre recorded classes, and they're in for 22 weeks on DSO. It's a very long, intensive, full time program. We teach two different offerings. One is full stack Web development with Java, so it's an enterprise Web development software course, and you come out getting jobs with titles like Full Stack, software developer, Web developer, mobile app developer um, are other offering competes more with a master's level program, and that's our data science program. And people come out of that with rolls. Of course like that, a scientist data analyst, financial analyst, etcetera. And that one is the same uh, course like that this time

great question, and I think that's one of our biggest differentiators in the marketplace. We view our employer partner as a customer, just like we do our students. So we see ourselves as a two sided market place. So I'm servicing a customer that is a student. That's a client. But we're also serving the employer partner on. While we do not make any financial gain from that employer partner directly, it allows us to have incredible outcomes for our students, which then drives the motor of admissions. Right, Because referrals is our number one source and best source of new students, it also allows us to stay best in class. So we maintain that by treating our employer partner as our main customers, who were consistently doing customer interviews and asking them, what could we change in our curriculum to make our graduates more appealing to your company? And then we have advisory panels that are made up of thes employer partners in the direct hiring managers at them, and that allows us to change our curriculum on stay up to date with the needs of that end user, the employer. A few years ago, we completely changed the backend programming languages that we were using to meet the needs of our employers, and we saw a huge uptick. As a result, we've continued to do it ever since.
