The company’s App Development with Swift curriculum is now available at The Singapore University of Technology and Design as a new course for working adults aiming to learn new skills for fundamental app design and development.
Moreover, RMIT Online has expanded its iOS App Development with Swift course to Singapore so local mid-career professionals can learn to code, too.
