Udacity launches web design pipeline for nanodegree grads - Jarrett Carter, Education Dive
For-profit online learning company Udacity this week announced the formation of Udacity Blitz, a web development job trial company that pairs corporations seeking mobile design with nanodegree graduates with skills matching their assignment needs. Companies are free to hire the graduates after the completion of the project, with no costs in finders' fees beyond the original matching price. Udacity, which began as a MOOC platform developer, has expanded into tech skills training to match the growing need for computer science graduates, expected to exceed 1 million by 2020.
