Apple CEO Tim Cook

Tim Cook, CEO of Apple believes that to become proficient at coding, you won’t need a 4-year degree. This sentiment was revealed as the CEO met with Liam Rosenfeld, a 16-year old WWDC scholar in Orlando, FL. Cook then mentioned in an interview with the Orlando Sentinel how Rosenfeld was “pretty impressive” that he learned to code at a young age.

Furthermore, the Apple bigwig stated that acquiring a degree doesn’t necessarily make one proficient and that the education system should teach their students and make coding part of the curriculum.

Apple CEO Tim Cook

In an interview with TechCrunch, Cook said that a lot of businesses are still using traditional technology and haven’t adapted to newer solutions.

With the help of Apple and future employees such as Rosenfeld, the CEO believes that a shift may happen, one that has companies adapting to beneficial changes such as machine learning, augmented reality and other innovations.
