Hello NexaScalers, the music from our launch party still echoes in my ears; how about you? That being said, we’ve got news!!!
“If future generations are to remember us more with gratitude than sorrow, we must achieve more than just the miracles of technology. We must also leave them a glimpse of the world as it was created, not just as it looked when we got through with it.” ~~Lyndon B. Johnson.
The reason NexaScale exists is to provide techies with the opportunity they need to start and scale their careers in tech. We’re thrilled to announce a new partnership with Educative Answers, providing NexaScale community members (YOU) opportunities to improve their communication and writing skills.

What the Partnership Entails
Educative Answers and NexaScale are community-oriented initiatives aimed at serving their members. NexaScale offers programs to help members advance in their careers, while Educative Answers provides members with opportunities to enhance their professional writing and communication abilities.
Educative Answers is collaborating with NexaScale to offer four specialized programs tailored to the NexaScale community. These programs will focus on refining members’ technical writing and public speaking skills, helping them develop effective communication strategies for their careers.
The Programs
Technical Writing Workshop
The Technical Writing Workshop is a 4-week intensive writing program designed to provide in-depth writing help for developers. Participants learn to research, outline, write, review, and publish one technical article. Although primarily self-led, participants are guided through the writing process by Educative’s team of technical content and editorial reviewers.
Communication workshop
The Communication Workshop is a 4-week program designed to help participants develop strong public speaking skills. Participants will write one technical article and present it as a technical “lightning” talk. This workshop will include two presentations on best practices for public speaking. All participants will present their published articles as part of a series of community meetups held directly after the workshop.
Widget Workshop
The Widget Workshop is a more advanced version of the Technical Writing Workshop, designed for developers who have already published one article on Educative Answers. The program aims to help participants create and publish a reusable code widget that they can feature in their portfolio. During this 4-week Widget Workshop, participants are introduced to the Docker-use case utilized by Educative.
This workshop is an excellent opportunity for anyone who would like to begin or continue exploring the different use cases of Docker!
Communication Apprenticeship
The communication apprenticeship is a more extended, 3-month program that combines all three workshops (Technical Writing, Communication, and Widget) into one master class on communication.
This apprenticeship is an excellent opportunity if you want to improve your all-around communication skills and work within a single discipline to learn how to communicate your ideas in both written, spoken, and visual formats — this program is for you!
You do not want to miss out on these juicy programs! To participate in any of the programs, Fill the NexaScale Community here.
