Empowering women who have been impacted by the criminal justice system with the core skills for a career in tech. This training opportunity has been brought to you by Catch22 and the London Digital Jobs and Skills Hub!
The Code4000 programme is open to women aged 18+ who live in London and have personal experience of the criminal justice system, or have been indirectly affected by it.
Computer programming is a skill much sought after by employers in the UK where there is a shortage of software development professionals – especially amongst women. By teaching coding, we are maximising the opportunity for women with experience of the criminal justice system to gain employment.
No previous experience or qualifications are required, however all participants must have access to a device and internet connection.
