MasteryConnect | Software Engineer | Salt Lake City, UT

MasteryConnect began when an experienced educator was inspired to focus on mastery learning and formative assessment, but was frustrated by a lack of time and tools. He wanted a way to get out of tracking mastery in spreadsheets, speed up the time to grade and provide feedback to students, and provide a way to share great formative assessments with educators around the country.

At MasteryConnect, we believe that through 21st century technology and tools, obstacles to mastery learning are removed. We believe in the power of the common standards and it’s ability to unleash the collective knowledge of teachers all across the country.

Went to a 3 month code school. Had multiple, full-time job offers after the program was done. Took one of them. My company has gone back and hired 5 more people from the same program.

Worked out well for me, and I learned much more attending in person than I would have just doing the online stuff (many of which I had pounded through before going to the bootcamp)


What program did you go through?


If I found the correct twitter account, it looks like he went through the DevPoint Labs program (which seems to have a broken site now) in Utah. Then hired by https://www.masteryconnect.com/

Great post Matt. Thanks a lot. Vivint is a super shady company in just about every way possible. It's no surprise that they resort to shady SEO.

If only Google could get rid of their Doucebag salesman as well...


amazing.
