iCode is a program run by iBridge hub that aims to teach computer programming skills to children, youths, educators, and parents in the community. It offers coding courses at iBridge hub, in schools through after-school programs and clubs, and online for individuals to learn at home. The goal is for coding to become a core subject in education and to make programming more accessible and seen as an essential 21st century skill. iCode uses a three month curriculum that introduces programming concepts and then teaches different languages appropriate for different age groups. It provides computers and resources at its hub and online for individuals to learn and practice coding.

1. Giving every child in our
community the chance to
learn to code.

2. What is iCode?
iCode is an arm of iBridge hub, a
social enterprise dedicated to
growing the knowledge of computer
programming in our community.
We believe Computer programming
should be a part of the core
curriculum in education, alongside
other courses.

3. What is iCode?
We're committed to building the
best learning experience inside
and out by transforming the way
Computer Programming is being
perceived, letting everyone know
that it is much easier to learn how
to code than they think.

4. Why Code?
"It gives kids the ability both to read
and to write in the foundational
languages of the digital age and, in
doing so, fundamentally transforms
their perspective from that of user
to maker, consumer to creative”.
Douglas Rushkoff

“Here we are, 2013, we ALL depend on
