About The Academy
The BSD Academy is a tech academy designed to accelerate the growth of tech talent in Africa by offering free accelerated and immersive courses. This project is designed to fill in the gap for people who are trying to hack it on their own but still want a high-quality education.
Our Beliefs
Africa Education should be free, accessible and world-class at all levels.
Our curriculum itself is free and we hope to link to resources that are themselves free so anyone in the world can use them.
Origin of The BSD Academy
The BSD Academy provides a free technology curriculum that currently focuses on Software Development, Machine Learning and BlockChain Technology. Since it’s inception in 2017, we combine our online curriculum with an offline learning session that assists the learners to have a direct approach to this curriculum and its trainers. It has also helped many learners get hired as developers and has assisted countless others to learn enough programming to work on their own personal projects.
Founded in 2017 by Shehu Tyson Lawal, and cofounded by Eyitayo Alimi.
The BSD Academy’s standards are maintained and continually improved by a team of volunteers, many of whom learned to code with us.
Open Source
The BSD Academy would not be possible without the hard work of contributors from all across the world. If you’re interested in helping us make academy better please find out how to contribute.
