Learn From Home Day is a free global online event for people interested in learning and self-improvement. It will be chock full of interactive classes and sessions ranging from guided meditation and drawing for inner calmness, to mixing a song and streaming best practices, to home cooking with Food52.
“This moment in time with the global pandemic is bigger than any one of us — and that’s why we need to come together,” said Zach Sims, CEO and Co-Founder of Codecademy. “By collaborating with other brands to host the inaugural ‘Learn From Home Day,’ we want to help people feel a greater sense of purpose, inspire them to learn more, and feel a little less alone. The takeaway will be that you can learn a new skill from anywhere, at any time, and gain a greater feeling of accomplishment, growth, and optimism as a result.”
Registration for the event is now open on the Codecademy website, with confirmed classes including:
- (Keynote) by Jerry Colonna, CEO at Reboot

- Cooking with Food52
