We believe that programming education should be accessible, practical, and transformative for everyone.
Founded in 2020 in the heart of Madrid, Waste Book emerged from a simple observation: traditional programming education was failing to keep pace with the rapidly evolving tech industry. Our founders, a group of seasoned developers and educators, recognized that aspiring programmers needed more than theoretical knowledge—they needed practical skills, real-world projects, and a supportive community.
What started as a small coding workshop in Barcelona has grown into a comprehensive online education platform serving thousands of students across Spain and beyond. We've helped career changers land their first tech jobs, empowered entrepreneurs to build their own products, and enabled working professionals to level up their skills.
Today, Waste Book stands as a testament to what's possible when passion meets purpose. Every course we create, every instructor we hire, and every feature we build is guided by our unwavering commitment to student success.
