Coding Dojo, Amazon Link To Train Alexa Developers

Bellevue-based coding bootcamp operator Coding Dojo is teaming up with Amazon.com's Alexa team, to make it easier for developers to learn how to build skills for Amazon's Alexa voice service. Coding Dojo announced this morning that it will offer up a new in-person class, a video series, and a hackathon to train developers to create those new extensions to Amazon Echo, which is powered by Alexa. Coding Dojo said the skills building class is an add-on to its existing Python stack at its onsite coding bootcamp. Pricing on the new class and video were not announced by Coding Dojo, which says it already has run Alexa workshops in San Jose and Bellevue.
