This course takes students through the basics of computer programming. The aim is to get students to understand the concepts and principles of computer programming; such as logic, sequencing, conditions, loops, routines and algorithms.
To keep the focus on these concepts and principles, which apply to all programming languages, we use a visual programming language, which is really easy to understand and fun to work with.
The instructions that make up the visual programming language are in the form of building-blocks. By combining building-blocks and arranging them in the right order, one is able to create their desired application. It is similar to the popular Lego bricks, but this is done on computers.

Learning how to program has equipped me with so much skills, knowledge and a broader approach on how to solve problems.

CodeCamp was very interesting and was happy to ever come across it. The teacher demonstrated knowledge and skills by providing clear instructions for all activities and was friendly and always smiling when he came to class. I really enjoyed participating in CodeCamp and will always encourage friends to join.

The course [Introduction to Programming] I took at CodeCamp has really boosted my creative skills and enhanced my imaginative skills. Using the new approach to software creation, through visual blocks makes coding very easy. Also the writing and reading of algorithms has made me give instructions in a more understandable and straight forward way.

My time spent learning here has been wonderful, educative, productive and interesting. I have learnt new technical terms. The best part was using what I had been taught for the past three weeks to create my own game in the fourth week. The trainer was very good in explaining everything for me to understand. I do ope to come back next year for the next course. Thank you CodeCamp.

Learning to Code at CodeCamp was such an amazing experience. Coding stretches your mind and gives you better and easier ways of programming any imagination conceived. I like CodeCamp because lessons were practical every time. I was challenged to bring on board any and every idea because any and everything can be programmed. Indeed: Imagine, Think, Create.

CodeCamp has helped me bear in mind that anything one can imagine, one can also create. Through programming, I have been able to create a game, which I have given to my neighbours and colleagues to entertain them.

The class was fun and interesting. It helped me gain the fundamentals of programming. It also helped me learn how to breakdown problems into simple solvable forms.

My experience at CodeCamp was very helpful. I already knew how to code before joining CodeCamp, but did not know the basics, such as writing of algorithms. Attending CodeCamp has really helped me understand how to code and has really improved my programming skills and knowledge.
