2307: Bridging the Digital Divide with Code Division
Episode description
On today's episode of Tech Talks Daily, I am joined by Bianca Peel and Frank Duffy, the founder of Code Division, a non-profit organisation and SQA-certified learning centre in Scotland. They are on a mission to provide free digital education to those who need it most, focusing on individuals who are unemployed, facing barriers to employment, and from underrepresented backgrounds in tech.
As automation and technological advancements threaten to displace 75 million jobs, Code Division empowers communities through industry-driven courses in data analysis, cyber resilience, business applications, software development, and more. By offering practical work-based learning and SQA accreditation, they prepare learners for various digital roles and help bridge the digital divide.
In this insightful conversation, we'll discuss the importance of digital equality and the positive social impacts of Code Division's latest initiatives. Learn how this inspiring non-profit brings the tech community together to support students with job opportunities, laptop donations, and mentoring.
