Statewide App Development "Roadshow" scheduled to stop in Mountain Home

Innovation Collective and the University of Idaho are embarking on a five day, 20 city tour of Idaho to promote a rapid learning initiative called Inspire Idaho. The tour, called "The Experience Tour," will be in Mountain Home on March 27.

Over the course of the tour the Inspire Idaho team will demonstrate app development, programming and motivate participants to join the rapidly growing, "app economy." The Inspire Idaho team includes not only members of Innovation Collective, and the University of Idaho, but also experts from around the country trained in app development in Apple Inc.'s Swift programming language.

The tour is designed to generate awareness and promotion for the Inspire Idaho program which utilizes the land-grant extension offices as a means to provide workforce readiness training in the rapidly changing knowledge economy. The Inspire Idaho program launches it's learning initiative later this spring with a first emphasis on app development.
