> Lambda School to Launch New Backend Engineering Program, Jointly Developed with Amazon

> Inspiration for the new backend program came from Amazon Technical Academy, which trains current, non-technical Amazon employees for software development engineering roles within the company.

Amazon Technical Academy is part of Amazon’s commitment to upskill 100,000 of its own employees by 2025.
