Canada Learning Code | FUTURES

October 14, 2023 @ 12:00 pm - 5:00 pm

In life and in tech, the only constant is change. In order to be equipped with the tools you need in life, in your careers, in entrepreneurship, and as members of society, we invite you to join us in thinking about the future as more than just a destination —  it’s a journey full of possibilities.

Canada Learning Code: FUTURES is about working towards a future where you’re represented in the technology we all use, because ✨ you ✨ create it.

We believe that creating opportunities for those who have been historically, and currently are underrepresented in technology is a crucial part of building digital equity. We’re here to support you along the way.

Is FUTURES for me?

💬 “I’m curious about tech and code in general.”

💬 “I’m looking for new skills to support my career growth.”

💬 “I am a complete beginner when it comes to coding.”

💬 “I have some coding skills but I’m looking to try my hand at something new.”

💬 “I have financial barriers that make it hard to pay for classes and training.”

💬 “I’m not sure if I belong in tech— I wish I saw more people like me leading this industry.”

In other words, this event is open to all adults in Canada, but is designed in a way that seeks to explicitly welcome those who have been historically and continue to be underrepresented in tech, including cis women, trans women, trans men, non-binary people and others who are marginalized because of their gender identity as well as Black, Indigenous and other Racialized learners, people in low-income communities, French speaking and newcomer learners.

If this sounds like you, join us for a day of free and low-barrier programming taking place both in-person and virtually.
