More Than Code
This past weekend, we wrapped up our first ๐๐จ๐ซ๐ ๐ญ๐ก๐๐ง ๐๐จ๐๐ program in the House of Technology! Huge thanks to @ourjourni for partnering with us and @scommpartners for sponsoring our students and hanging out with us for the last several weeks. ๐โฃ

๐๐จ๐ซ๐ ๐๐ก๐๐ง ๐๐จ๐๐, led by Journi, is a program that helps to enhance high school studentsโ confidence in shaping their own future. Journi uses an approach of coding education to teach his students; which includes entrepreneurial training as well! โฃ
