Flagship Immersive Program Evolves to Meet the Changing Demands of the Tech Workforce

CHICAGO, Feb. 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Code Platoon today announced the launch of its newly updated AI + Fullstack Engineering curriculum, marking the next evolution of the organization’s flagship Immersive program. The update reflects Code Platoon’s ongoing commitment to aligning its training with the in-demand skills employers are seeking in today’s rapidly changing technology landscape.

Over the past ten years, Code Platoon has graduated more than 500 students across 28 immersive cohorts into careers as Fullstack software engineers. As the role of software engineers has evolved—particularly with the rapid adoption of artificial intelligence—Code Platoon has continually updated its curriculum to ensure graduates are prepared for real-world engineering roles.

“Software engineering today looks very different than it did even five years ago,” said Rod Levy, Founder and Executive Director of Code Platoon. “Our responsibility is to ensure that the training we provide reflects what employers actually need. Updating our Immersive program to AI + Fullstack Engineering is a natural extension of our mission—to equip Veterans and military-connected students with relevant, job-ready skills that lead to long-term careers in tech.”

While Code Platoon has integrated responsible AI usage into its Fullstack curriculum for several years, the AI + Fullstack Engineering program represents a more intentional shift. Students will move beyond simply using AI tools and instead learn how to build and integrate AI-powered features into real applications.

Students also gain exposure to how AI systems are trained, how data supports AI-driven features, and how intelligent components are integrated into production-ready applications.

“This change fundamentally impacts what our students are able to build and demonstrate,” said Francisco Avila, Lead Fullstack Engineering Instructor at Code Platoon. “In the Immersive program, students will now design and develop Fullstack applications that incorporate modern AI capabilities. Their group projects won’t just showcase technical fundamentals—they’ll show employers that our graduates can think critically about where AI fits, how to integrate it responsibly, and how to deliver real value in production-ready applications.”

Graduates of the AI + Fullstack Engineering program will enter the workforce with a portfolio that reflects modern engineering expectations—combining strong Fullstack fundamentals with practical experience building AI-enabled systems.

With this curriculum update, Code Platoon continues to push forward its mission of helping Veterans and military-connected learners transition into meaningful careers in technology—prepared not just for today’s roles, but for the future of software engineering.

The Federal Reserve cut interest rates by 25 basis points, and Powell said this was a risk management cut

PANews reported on September 18th, according to the Securities Times, that at 2:00 AM Beijing time on September 18th, the Federal Reserve announced a 25 basis point interest rate cut, lowering the federal funds rate from 4.25%-4.50% to 4.00%-4.25%, in line with market expectations. The Fed's interest rate announcement triggered a sharp market reaction, with the three major US stock indices rising briefly before quickly plunging. The US dollar index plummeted, briefly hitting a new low since 2025, before rebounding sharply, turning a decline into an upward trend. The sharp market volatility was closely tied to the subsequent monetary policy press conference held by Federal Reserve Chairman Powell. He stated that the 50 basis point rate cut lacked broad support and that there was no need for a swift adjustment. Today's move could be viewed as a risk-management cut, suggesting the Fed will not enter a sustained cycle of rate cuts. Powell reiterated the Fed's unwavering commitment to maintaining its independence. Market participants are currently unaware of the risks to the Fed's independence. The latest published interest rate dot plot shows that the median expectation of Fed officials is to cut interest rates twice more this year (by 25 basis points each), one more than predicted in June this year. At the same time, Fed officials expect that after three rate cuts this year, there will be another 25 basis point cut in 2026 and 2027.

SEC Approves Generic Listing Standards for Crypto ETFs

SEC Approves Generic Listing Standards for Crypto ETFs

In a bombshell filing, the SEC is prepared to allow generic listing standards for crypto ETFs. This would permit ETF listings without a specific case-by-case approval process. The filing’s language rests on cryptoassets that are commodities, not securities. However, the Commission is reclassifying many such assets, theoretically enabling an XRP ETF alongside many other new products. Why Generic Listing Standards Matter The SEC has been tacitly approving new crypto ETFs like XRP and DOGE-based products, but there hasn’t been an unambiguously clear signal of greater acceptance. Huge waves of altcoin ETF filings keep reaching the Commission, but there hasn’t been a corresponding show of confidence. Until today, that is, as the SEC just took a sweeping measure to approve generic listing standards for crypto ETFs: “[Several leading exchanges] filed with the SEC proposed rule changes to adopt generic listing standards for Commodity-Based Trust Shares. Each of the foregoing proposed rule changes… were subject to notice and comment. This order approves the Proposals on an accelerated basis,” the SEC’s filing claimed. The proposals came from the Nasdaq, CBOE, and NYSE Arca, which all the ETF issuers have been using to funnel their proposals. In other words, this decision on generic listing standards could genuinely transform crypto ETF approvals. A New Era for Crypto ETFs Specifically, these new standards would allow issuers to tailor-make compliant crypto ETF proposals. If these filings meet all the Commission’s criteria, the underlying ETFs could trade on the market without direct SEC approval. This would remove a huge bottleneck in the coveted ETF creation process. “By approving these generic listing standards, we are ensuring that our capital markets remain the best place in the world to engage in the cutting-edge innovation of digital assets. This approval helps to maximize investor choice and foster innovation by streamlining the listing process,” SEC Chair Paul Atkins claimed in a press release. The SEC has already been working on a streamlined approval process for crypto ETFs, but these generic listing standards could accomplish the task. This rule change would rely on considering tokens as commodities instead of securities, but federal regulators have been reclassifying assets like XRP. If these standards work as advertised, ETFs based on XRP, Solana, and many other cryptos could be coming very soon. This quiet announcement may have huge implications.
