TESTIMONIALS
Code for Change’s coding program was crucial to giving me direction. If you are interested in coding or have an inclination, I would definitely recommend this training. It really helped me.
My first time switching on a computer was during my first lesson with CodeJIKA.com. I never knew I would enjoy coding as much as I do now. I am thankful to Code for Change for bringing coding to my school, it has not only changed my life, but it has changed my peers life as well. We can call ourselves coders now 🙂
I think computer programming is a great idea and Code for Change is doing a great job by giving the students at Ivory Park basic coding skills, which will help them fit it when they leave for University or when they go out and find employment.
“Youth have all the idealism, enthusiasm and intellect to transform society today”
they just need the tools and someone to say
“I believe in you.”
