AI isn't a specialization anymore—it's how software gets built.
But here's what people miss: AI is just another layer. Powerful only when the foundation is solid.
That's why we still start with fundamentals. Every line by hand. No shortcuts.
Full breakdown:

New year. Same mission.

Supporting veterans not just through training—but through careers, transitions, and every chapter that follows.

Here’s to steady progress and showing up for one another in the year ahead.

What are you focusing on as the year gets started?

That stretch after Christmas and before New Year always feels like a loading screen.

If you’re using the downtime to reset your goals, clean up repos, or sketch out what you want to learn next year, we’re right there with you.

What are you setting up for 2026?

The National Guard turns 389 years old today.

Its history is built on service, training, and the ability to adapt — qualities many of us carried into our civilian careers.

Our 2025 recap continues with a major milestone: being invited to attend Google I/O.
A key conversation with the Google DeepMind team focused on a core question:

How do veterans stay ready for a field that changes fast?

Another highlight this year: Jerome served as a technical reviewer for the GitHub Foundations Certification Guide by Ayo Aladejebi — architect, DevOps evangelist, and Senior Customer Success Architect at GitHub.

His review helped reinforce the fundamentals our veterans rely on in engineering roles.

Continuing our year-end recap: Cloudinary featured Vets Who Code in a piece about the mission, the work, and how veterans transition into software-engineering careers.

The article highlighted the strengths veterans bring to engineering and the impact of focused, mission-driven training.

A major highlight this year: Vets Who Code was selected by Candid as one of six nonprofits helping shape new AI tools designed to support small, mission-driven organizations.

This work focuses on a key challenge: how lean teams can scale impact without shifting energy away from execution.

December 7th invites reflection.

We remember the lives lost at Pearl Harbor, the families forever changed, and the resilience that carried a nation forward.

A moment in history—but a legacy of courage we still learn from today.

Holiday shopping idea: pick up some VWC gear and help fund a veteran’s path into software engineering.

100% of proceeds go straight to the nonprofit. No middlemen, no fluff — just support that lands where it’s needed.

Strong gear. Strong mission.
