MISLA is a Technology Bootcamp supported in part by Microsoft and VSEDC. We specialize in Digital Literacy training (web development/ software engineering/ video game programming, etc) for underrepresented minorities in South Central Los Angeles (and virtually abroad). We are also supported by MARTY & Hawke Media’s Fly Forward Academy, where Hawke Employees volunteer their time to train our youth in Digital & Social Media Marketing in an immersive 3 month Cohort. MARTY youth immediately take lessons learned and apply them working with South Central businesses. We facilitate partnerships with local SLA non-profits, coding academies and local entrepreneurs in order to decrease the diversity/ tech inclusion gap, increase economic stability within poverty-stricken communities, and battle the ill effects of gentrification in urban/ inner-city areas, starting with South Central Los Angeles. Some of our collective Bootcamps may include (but are not limited to) coding, software engineering, web design, cyber security, cryptocurrency, real estate + financial literacy, robotics, graphic design, film-making + editing, content creation, video game design, animation, Virtual Reality, Augmented Reality, Mixed Reality, and other forms of digital literacy training.
