BrainStation, the digital skills academy with a major campus in downtown Vancouver, has agreed to acquire Wyncode, Florida’s leading coding and user experience (UX) design bootcamp. Financial terms of the transaction were not disclosed.

With the acquisition, BrainStation takes on a leadership position in the Florida digital skills training market, offering a suite of full-time bootcamps including Web Development, UX Design, Data Science, and Digital Marketing.

"The need for digital skills has never been greater than it is right now,” said BrainStation’s Vancouver-based vice president, Kyle Treleaven. “The founders, Johanna and Juha Mikkola, have established Wyncode as the premier provider of digital skills training in Florida since launching in 2014 as the first bootcamp in Florida.”

Treleaven added, “I couldn't be more excited to have their incredibly talented team join our mission to reshape the future of digital skills training. BrainStation will continue to invest in the future of digital skill training as we grow in New York, San Francisco, Vancouver, Toronto, London England and now Miami.”
