Registration for School Year 2022-2023 is now closed

 

Overview

Welcome to the EMS Coding Club, a place for future engineers and computer programmers to come together to learn how to code. Coding club at EMS started last year with a goal of developing student interest in computer science. We had 90+ kids registered for the club last year. The club will run virtually with some in-person sessions.

Coding Club sessions will be held weekly. There will be two groups this year - Beginners and Advanced. Students who are new to coding (Python) should join Beginners group. While students who have prior coding experience and are ready to learn advance programming concepts, should join the Advanced group. A list of topics that will be covered in both groups would be available soon. Please check this page for updates.

Please note that students will be required to bring their own device to participate.
