Inspiring events bring the whole community together

While everyday events create thousands of community-building micro-interactions, you also need events that unify the whole community. They create esprit de corps and give the community a sense of overall purpose. We seek to bring everyone together and broaden their social network so that Turing College learners become future co-workers or friends. Thus, we cordially invite everyone to participate in our community events. Events also add an additional and crucial element to the learning experience. And this element is present from day one of the Turing College experience.

Community events

Summer Event

Work hard - play harder. The summer event is an annual Turing College birthday celebration to which we invite all our communities! Yeah yeah, you've heard right. That means learners, staff, senior team leads, mentors, and partners. It's the only event in the year when the entire community meets in person - and it's always full of good emotions!

Coffee Machine Talks

We unite many professionals which you meet while learning here at Turing College. And sometimes, all talks with them are related to program material, problem-solving, etc., without particular time to get to know their past, experience, and insights. That’s why bi-monthly informal talks, called Coffee Machine Talks, create a space to do so. By hopping into this call, you can learn many interesting things by listening to our speakers! These talks are not repeatable, so every opportunity is unique.

Mindletic or Well-being Events

Community events are not only about creating interactions with others but also about empowering you to be self-aware of your well-being and work-life balance.

Mindletic is our partner organisation creating a tool for training your emotional muscles by reflecting on them daily. In addition, Mindletic organises monthly events about various topics related to psychological health, well-being, stress management, burnout prevention, and others. Apart from that, Turing College occasionally organises events/workshops also associated with well-being topics. These events take place on Zoom, so every learner can attend the meeting virtually.

Hiring events

Meetings with Hiring Partners

Our Hiring Partners do their organization's presentations and answer all learners' questions during the meeting. So every learner has an exclusive opportunity to get to know our Hiring Partners (or future employers) or gain knowledge for a smoother hiring experience. All upcoming events appear on the #career channel on Discord. 

Endorsement standup

This weekly meeting/call with our Hiring team & learners is extremely important to everyone who’s going through endorsement process. During this stand-up, we exchange insights on endorsement & hiring, answer all learners' questions and advise for a smoother experience and better result. Moreover, we invite employed learners/alumni to share their endorsement and hiring processes expertise. To clarify, those speakers have already completed Turing College's endorsement, so their sharings are valuable for the current learners. They share all the tips & tricks, do's, and don'ts. If not them, the guest can be from our Hiring Partner company, so the sharings would be focused on expertise in working at a specific company or specific role.

Learning events

They are crucial for your excellent preparation for the job market or even more fulfilled learning experience here, at Turing College. This type includes standups, retrospectives and open sessions (you can read about these events here). The reason we have these learning events is so that you can have the ultimate work-life experience by practicing it while learning.
