About Us

At Canada Learning Code, we believe that digital skills are tools of empowerment. The world is changing, and we want Canada to be ready. We’re here to make sure that all people in Canada have access to the knowledge they need to prosper in our digital world.

Our programs are designed in a way that seek to explicitly welcome those who have historically been and continue to be marginalized and underrepresented in tech, with a focus on cis women, trans women, trans men, non-binary peopleand others who are marginalized because of their gender identity as well as Black, Indigenous and other Racialized people, people in low-income communities, and newcomers.

Our Vision

We envision a prosperous Canada in which all people have the skills and confidence to harness the power of technology to create a better and more inclusive future.

Our Mission

Canada Learning Code brings accessible computer science to communities across Canada so everyone can create with technology. We do this by partnering with education and training providers, designing and curating resources, and delivering learning experiences.
