How do we raise the standard in education?
Our program focuses on research & high level critical thinking, which is completely absent when students solely copy code from pre-recorded videos or solve overly structured challenges in coding games.
We raise the standard by:
- Gradually exposing them to developer level resources and documentation used by industry professionals
- Combining industry resources with our internal materials to ensure that students get a well-rounded understanding of concepts
- Teaching them logic so that they can problem solve through new challenges
Where there is no playbook on how to code through a problem, we teach students how to make the playbook leading to innovation and new discoveries.

What will your child learn?
Since we are a web and software development firm, our classes teach programming to prepare students for web and application development. Major subjects include Python, HTML, CSS, GitHub, JavaScript. Our advanced students have the opportunity to learn popular frameworks used in development today such as React and Flask.
How does our program set up your student for success?
Our program is made up of many different classes discussing topics such as Python, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Students will attend class weekly where they will get help with their assignments and learn from the instructor. Once the student has completed all the assignments, they will meet with one of our instructors to have their learning evaluation. During this time, students will be given feedback on points that they need to continue to study. If the student has adequate understanding to proceed to the next course, the instructor will send them the information needed to register for the next class. While they are in the program, students will have access to office hours and the community support forums to ask questions and get answers from our staff and other students.
