Shopee launches Shopee Code League to help upskill coders through workshops and challenges designed to enhance their programming abilities.
Leading e-commerce platform in Southeast Asia and Taiwan, Shopee, has launched the Shopee Code League. It is a 2-week league that features a series of exclusive online training sessions organized by Shopee. It includes two rounds of coding competitions that let participants solve algorithmic puzzles designed by the Shopee Engineering team. On 2021, it was attended by over 17,000 participants and 300 partners from 8 locations across the region. The competition initially had 3 different tracks: Data Science, Data Analytics, and Programming. This year, SCL will cater to the need of more coders keen on learning about algorithms. SCL will focus on offering the following topics: Python Programming, C++, Go, Data Structures and Algorithms, and Dynamic Programming.
The league invites everyone, from undergraduates, postgraduates, to professionals. All interested individuals and top performers can win cash prizes amounting to S$25,000 (more than ₱950,000). Participants will also get a chance to join Shopee to grow their careers in the tech landscape.
“We are excited to support a new generation of tech leaders and enthusiasts who want to learn and improve their skills through Shopee Code League. The initiative proved to be successful each year and we will continue to enhance our programs so that our participants can take full advantage of the opportunities Shopee is offering. We are inviting all tech talents to join and learn how to maximize their potential.”
