Where do codeX Alumni work?
“Working with codeX has been a rather fulfilling experience – having watched individuals whom have never been exposed to code to becoming proficient programmers is incredibly inspiring.
My favourite interactions have been at the demo days where it’s been amazing to see what the coders have learned. They create innovative solutions for real life problems. One of the more memorable solutions for me was a mobile app which helped riders of taxis gauge the speed of the taxi they were in. Often times taxi riders feel unsafe due to reckless driving this app helped track the speed of the taxi and enabled riders to report bad drivers.
The codeX coders not only learn technical skills but some valuable life skills that will help them succeed in the respective environments in which they enter. Allan Gray support codeX’s cause and have even employed one of their coders.”
