# Twilio Superclass
A resource for Twilio Superclass workshops 🎉😄
## 🤔 What is a Twilio "Superclass"?
Superclass is self-directed training for developers who want to level up their Twilio skills.
On-site mentors will guide you through a self-paced, choose-your-own-adventure coding experience that’s built on Twilio’s education platform: [TwilioQuest](https://www.twilio.com/quest).
*[Superclass Highlights](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Epx7a-swzmo) from SIGNAL 2018*
## 📆 Upcoming Superclasses
- Superclass at [Hack Arizona](https://hackarizona.org/) Jan. 18-20, 2019 in Tucson, AZ
