Commented Jukka Jumisko, WSI Consultant and Cultivating Coders, Contributor “We believe that the work done by our coders should not go to waste, so we identify businesses and non-profit companies in the community that could benefit from all of the web development our coders produce. By helping local companies with large web application development projects, we’ve opened up opportunities of employment for our coders.”

Equally, as a global network of Digital Marketing Agencies that provide digital solutions to businesses, WSI is also well-positioned to create further employment opportunities for graduates of Cultivating Coders’ program.
