    Funding secured. Lambda School raised a $14 million Series A led by GV. Stripe, Bow Capital, and some other great angels invested. https://lambdaschool.com/blog/lambda-school-announces-14-million-series-a-led-by-gv/ …

        We’re using the funds to do two main things: 1. Continue expanding. Lambda School didn’t exist 18 months ago and we’re already one of the largest code schools in the world. 2. Build out a robust hiring network and platform.

        We win when Lambda School students are hired. In the next six months in addition to building out an incredible career services arm and curriculum, we’ll be hiring a full team whose responsibility it will be to make sure hiring managers everywhere are hiring Lambda grads.

        At a small scale having incentives aligned with students is a matter of how/when you charge tuition. At a larger scale it’s about investing millions of dollars to make sure Lambda School is bar none the best place in the world to launch a career.

        And lastly, a shameless plug: If you want to meet and/or hire Lambda School students email hiringpartners@lambdaschool.com and we'll make sure we can understand your needs and hook you up with the perfect fit.

        I find that the key to "funding secured" tweets is to actually have funding secured

        It’d be cool if your graduates could participate in Lambda upside via some sort of stock purchase mechanism. Never heard of a structure like that but...

        Uber and Airbnb have tried it. Seems like a nightmare from a regulatory perspective
