Welcome to WDI 44!

Class runs 9:15AM - 5PM. You are allotted 3 unexcused absences (3 tardies = 1 absence) before you will be asked to leave the program.

Homework is assigned daily; your instructors will occasionally ask you to submit via the Project Submission Doc for review.

All class communication will happen in Slack, in the wdi_sf_44_strictlybiz channel. Please turn your notifications on! We encourage you to Slack your instructors and each other regularly for help.

Every Thursday morning, wdi_sf_44_strictlybiz will prompt you to fill out a Weekly Pulse Check – use this Pulse Check to decide if you need to schedule a one-on-one with an instructor.

Schedule one-on-ones with your instructors as needed – keeping them updated on your progress will better equip them to support you throughout the 12 weeks. Read past students' pro-tips here.
