Update: Apple has <a href="https://www.apple.com/newsroom/2017/08/leading-us-community-colleges-adding-swift-curriculum/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">announced[/url] that the Swift app development curriculum noted below is being expanded to more community colleges.</p>
<p>Apple today announced the App Development with Swift curriculum will now be offered in more than 30 community college systems across the country in the 2017-2018 school year, providing opportunities to millions of students to build apps that will prepare them for careers in software development and information technology. The Austin Community College District (ACC), one of the nation’s largest higher learning institutions, will begin offering the course to its 74,000 students this fall.</p>

It will be a bit of a disappointment if this turns out to be the entirety of Apple’s announcements today …</p>
<p>Tim Cook is currently travelling around the USA, with stops in <a href="

<p>I’m in a press conference tomorrow with Apple, and Tim Cook is here as we’re announcing a training program for people. They’re announcing it all over the country.</p>
<p>The visit to Iowa came ahead of Apple <a href="
