In today's world, where technology is rapidly advancing, having the ability to code can give you a significant advantage over your peers. Employers across all kinds of industries are looking for candidates with knowledge in these areas, and a willingness to learn.

 

With coding and programming increasingly being taught in schools, those who have completed their formal education may feel that they need to upskill themselves to keep up with the changing pace within a multitude of sectors. According to Forbes, the global number of software developers will increase to 45 million by 2030. With this rise in demand, many coding jobs have become available, with new ones materialising every year.

 

Join us on our three-week course, where our expert speakers will support you to learn different coding and programming languages, enabling you to gain a better understanding of how computers and software work. While many people see coding as a highly technical skill, it is, in fact, another form of literacy, like a new language, but for computers. 

 

This type of knowledge can help you to create your own digital products and services, create games, mobile apps and websites, and even solve complex problems. If you are interested in learning this valuable and rewarding skill, sign up for this free course for Lambeth residents now!
