No coding skills, no problem

Total Integrated Resources (TIR), a business consultancy, has launched an academy to help businesses and individuals with no technical background build mobile and web apps.

TIR is partnering with KnowledgeKube, a start-up which enables anyone to create enterprise-grade apps without writing a line of code.

Their eight-day introductory course will equip entrepreneurs with the skills to develop apps that help automate processes or workflows within their businesses. The TIR Academy plans to roll out more advanced courses in the next six months.

TIR has also launched Resources To Share, a business-to-business portal that matches companies with resources with those who need them.
