Code the Dream‘s innovative model is a win-win: Students from diverse backgrounds build real apps to launch their tech careers, and our communities benefit from the tools they develop.

Classes

Code the Dream provides free training in software development followed by the opportunity to apply for a paid internship, during which students create mobile and web technologies for a wide range of nonprofits, businesses, and government agencies.

Learn more and apply online.

 

 

Code the Dream creates a path to a life-changing career in tech for young people from diverse and low-resourced  communities. 80% of our interns land tech jobs in places like IBM, Duke, Cisco, & Lenovo or gain significant college scholarships.

“When you do get something like the motorcycle bill, where you have the old bill and the new bill, this shows a side-by-side snapshot where you can see exactly what’s changed. Discerning those changes quickly allows more time to add depth to reporting," Boughton said.

The panelists included Walter Gomez from @EnlaceLatinoNC, Brian Clary from @Triad_City_Beat, Maria Gonzalez from @elpuebloinc, and Melissa Boughton from @scsj. pic.twitter.com/sJjsUDMpeQ
