Are you 18 or over and a member of a federally recognized Native American tribe? You may be eligible for a scholarship that covers about 20% of the cost of a coding boot camp. Natives in Tech has partnered with Nucamp, the coding boot camp, for the Natives in Tech + Nucamp Scholarship. The six-month, part-time program allows students to continue to work or care for their families while they are learning on their own schedules. Find out more about the scholarship here.
