Girls Code! Celebrating Women’s day with Learning Packages for Girl Coders

In partnership with Florida-based learning organization, Kaisipan, Inc., Layertech launched the Girls Code program, to encourage young girls to learn coding. Each recipient was given a full Parallel Coder Learn2Code package, complete with character goodies, a Learn2Code Coder’s handbook activity book, free shirt, and stationery! Included in the packages are FREE access to two courses, Learn2Code for Beginners and Learn2Code Python. Both courses are self-paced e-workshop courses with certificates.

In addition, the girls’ progress was monitored, and they were asked to share a few thoughts about coding and why girls should learn how to code:

Because like anyone else, we also have to be trained in being innovative and build something good with coding that can help our community!”

– Jael Lao-e

“I believe girls should learn to code so we can also have the same opportunities as boys in learning about coding and technology, I want to grow up and become a game developer someday!”

– Carlie Anglo

“Girls should learn how to code because its FUN! And you can pass time and it might be useful to you in the future as well.”

– Cassandra Paza

“Coding allows me to keep on learning new things, solve tasks, and have fun!”

– Jeraldine Llovido

To further encourage the kids, Layertech sought the advice and thoughts of successful women in computing. Some of their thoughts are:

“Girls who code are key to a brighter future!”

– Dr. Maria Beebe

“When girls take on a career in tech, they inevitably influence the future and create change in the world.”
