The Tech Forward Podcast

Launched in March 2018, Tech Forward is a new podcast series focused on improving diversity in tech by sharing advice for those seeking to enter the industry.

And Dr. Herman Pryor, Jr, District Lead in the Career Services Division for Coding Dojo, gives his thoughts on, “Can Coding Bootcamps Help Solve Tech’s Diversity Problem?
