The Recurse Center is a self-directed educational retreat for programmers founded in 2012[3]. Based in New York City[4], the organization runs programming retreats organized around self-directives and social rules, with both a physical New York space and an online option[1]. The retreat operates on a recurring batch schedule supplemented by a continuous events calendar[2], and maintains a Zulip community for participants and alumni[1]. The Recurse Center is free for all participants, as the organization operates an integrated recruiting agency and provides optional personalized recruiting services to community members considering new employment[7]. The organization went through Y Combinator's Summer 2010 batch[5] and currently operates with a team of seven[6].

About

  • The Recurse Center is a self-directed, educational retreat for people who want to get better at programming, whether they've been programming for three decades or three months. The retreat is free for all participants because we run an integrated recruiting agency and provide (optional) personalized recruiting services to anyone in our community considering a new job.[7]
