The Columbia Business School Club of Spain presents you with an exciting opportunity to enter new grounds of maximum relevance today. Present times demand being familiar with and knowledgeable of the tools that are fundamental in the shaping of the new digital economy, programming being the underlying mean to make things happen.

CBS Professor Mattan Griffel is highly experienced in programming education, as founder & CEO of an online teaching camp for beginners and intermediate users. He uses his knowledge to also introduce and improve the coding skills of CBS students.

The session will cover the reasons explaining the need to change the skillset at the modern workplace, why it makes sense to learn how to code and what specific steps you can take to approach it successfully.

The event is to be held at the Disney's offices in Madrid and it will be accompanied with a very fine selection of wine and snacks (refreshments also available), so that the environment will be very relaxed and the atmosphere highly collegial.

Anyone interested in the digital world can greatly benefit from this unique session. We will be delighted to share it with you.
