TL;DR
iCode is expanding in California with four new locations and offering discounted STEM summer camps for kids. The camps will be available in Millbrae, Palo Alto, Cupertino, and San Jose, and will include a variety of programs such as 3D printing, game development, and robotics.
iCode is excited to announce the opening of four additional locations in California. Students living in or near Millbrae, Palo Alto, Cupertino, and San Jose (Southeast) will soon be able to enjoy the company’s renowned instructor-led lessons and hands-on applications, as well as a host of summer programming designed to keep kids engaged and having fun throughout the extended break.
“Teaching kids how to code is the language of the future,” iCode Founder Abid Abedi recently told The Jeff Crilley Show. “Regardless of what profession they want to go in, they have to understand tech. We have more than 28 camps we’re offering this summer that serve a variety of interests.”
To celebrate iCode’s expansion, franchise owners are rolling out a series of STEM camps for kids from June 13 through August 16, at locations in all four cities. Discounted pricing is available and program offerings include:
Creative Lab: 3D Printing & Design
Game Builder: Creating with Construct 3
Game Master: Multiplayer Game Development with Construct 3
Drone Code: Programming with Python 3
Lego EV3: Robot Squads : Engineering Team Challenge
Minecraft: Modding Adventure
YouTube Creator: Learn Production Basics
Lego EV3: Battle of the Bots : Tournament of Champions
Digital DJ: Creating Music with Sonic Pi
Jr Programmer: Intro to 2D Game Development with Scratch
Unreal Designer: 3D Game Development with UE5
State standardized test scores released last October show fewer than 3 in 10 of California’s children meet state standards for science. Research shows that children can lose up to 40% of their learning over summer break. This is the perfect time to strengthen those skills and have fun doing it!
iCode’s approach prepares students to compete in a digital and global workforce. In addition to STEM skills, the curriculum also teaches a host of soft skills like time management, teamwork, presentation and communication skills, and strategic thinking.
