Apps for Good courses can be delivered at any point in curriculum or enrichment time. They enable students to develop a technology solution to a problem in their community. All of our courses give students the opportunity to learn from leading members of the industry, opening up their career and educational pathways.
COVID-19 has had an impact on us all. In the event of school closures and students working from home, we have developed our courses so they can be delivered at home or in school, with or without a laptop. No matter your requirements and how you choose to deliver we will be on hand to help!
ChangeX and Apps for Good have partnered with Microsoft to empower more teachers to pass on digital skills to students in the Greater London and South Wales area. Sign up here to get started and receive funding to ensure your school has access to all the materials needed to undertake Apps for Good courses.
"What could have been a tiny project, has completely changed my life. Having Apps for Good on my CV really helped with getting placements and set me up well for interviews and presentations at university. I'm not afraid to get up and speak in front of large groups of people as I had the opportunity to do it with Apps for Good"
