“I founded CodeWizardsHQ to support my daughter’s interest in technology, which I believe will prepare her for a myriad of opportunities in a tech-driven world. Providing access to coding classes for kids and teens is a priority to guarantee a future-ready generation so the partnership with ChickTech was a must!” said Jey Iyempandi, CodeWizardsHQ Founder & CEO.
This common vision between the global coding school and ChickTech drove the two organizations to partner through offering a reduced-cost Intro to Programming course and a donation to ChickTech for each registrant. The new $20/student rate reduces the barriers to coding and CodeWizardsHQ’s donation to ChickTech of 50% of class tuition provides crucial resources helping ChickTech provide FREE technology workshops to more students across the nation.
