Founded in 2015, Webgyrlz Code is focused on educating girls & women in an environment where they feel safe to learn about technology and collaborate with their peers. They discover their superpower to become a creator, inventor, or an innovator of amazing ideas that can change the world of computer science. Through coding camps, partnerships with schools, and workshops we introduce computer science in a fun and effective way to students.
We remove obstacles to learning by providing all needed devices and equipment for in-person coding classes and workshops.
Programming courses include web & app development, & introductions to game development and animation. Our 5-lesson web development training takes a student from a blank page to a fully hand-coded, basic, one-page website using HTML5 & CSS programming. In 2022 we began offering classes in basic JavaScript.
In 2023 we will launch our Software Engineer Bridge program for adult females to get the support they need to become software engineers.
We also recognize the need to allow people of all demographics to have a chance to learn about the opportunities in computer science & we work with all in the community.
