Ironhack’s Miami HQ and classroom will be based at Building, one of Miami’s newest co-working centers. The partnership was announced at Friday night’s Ironhack Hackshow, where the top five projects from its third cohort were demo-ed on stage.

Ironhack is a web development school that teaches  coding -- Ruby, Javascript and HTML/CSS specifically -- to students of all backgrounds, creating a new talent pool of junior web developers here in Miami. “We are very excited that they’ll be a core member company at Building, and that together we will be helping to build the MiamiTech ecosystem,” said Jose Rasco, one of Building's co-founders.

Through this partnership, Ironhack will run its web development bootcamps from the 3rd floor of Building. Ironhack students will have access toall the benefits of Building – including all 3 floors of meeting space, the rooftop patio and free drinks and snacks. In addition, all members of Building will get discounted access to Ironhack’s courses and free “Learn to Code” events. “Not to be overlooked is the  unique ability for Building members to get a first-hand look at the growing talent that Ironhack develops during each cohort, with the potential to scout new hires from each class,” Building said in its blog post announcing the event.

Building, started by the entrepreneurs behind Straat Investments and .CO Internet, is 16,000 square feet and recently opened in the west Brickell area. It already has a dozen member companies, including Neustar, Pop.co, Instacart and Boatrax.

IronHack co-founder Ariel Quiñones moved to Miami from Barcelona last year to set up the Spanish company’s new U.S. base, which was located in Pipeline Brickell before moving and expanding in Building. Ironhack expects its fourth cohort, which starts in October, to include up to 20 students. More information here.
