In celebration of EU Code Week, Apple will offer more than 2,000 free coding lessons at its various store locations around Europe. The sessions offered by Apple will focus on three different subjects, including 'how to: get started with coding,' 'teacher Tuesdays: app design & coding basics,' and 'kids hour: Sphero Maze challenge.' These classes can be easily located through the EU Code Week website and on Apple's regional pages.
This initiative for EU Code Week falls in line with Apple's commitment to coding education. Apple has already hosted 14,000 coding lessons at Apple stores across Europe, all utilizing Apple's Swift programming language. According to CEO Tim Cook, "Apple has long believed coding is the language of the future, and we've created a range of tools to make it fun and accessible for everyone."
