Apply for a Nexthink coding for girls scholarship

One of TechSpark Academy’s core beliefs is that digital is for everyone. Sadly, women and girls are still under-represented in the digital world. To encourage girls to give coding a go and tap into their hidden potential, TechSpark Academy is proud to be partnering with with digital employee experience Nexthink.

Each year, Nexthink supports over 40 girls through its “Coding for Girls” scholarship programme. A limited number of scholarships are available for some TechSpark Academy holiday camps.

To apply for a girls scholarship, we ask you to submit a short motivational text and use the applicable promo code displayed on the camp registration page.

Want to help us make digital literacy a reality for more kids and teens? We need your support to make this happen.
