Learn to code every Thursday in June!

Interactive learning!

We are proud to present a coding academy for those who are considering a career transition or for those who would like to take their first steps into the very important career of computer programming.

Our instructor will help you get on the right path to learning how to use a programming language to create content on your computer, mobile phone, or tablet.

At the end of the course you will have a very comfortable understanding of what object oriented programming (OOP) is and how to work with it in order to effectively create and learn more intermediate and expert level programs.

*Please bring your own laptop. The programming language to install is Python (www.python.org).

**This course is for High School and up. Those who would like to have their children participate must also participate as well. 

***One fee covers the entire month
