Apps for Good

The highly successful and valued Apps for Good programme involves young people aged 10 to 16 years in the design, build, market and launch of mobile, web and social apps to solve problems that young people care about in their communities.

Apps for Good are now extending their programme across the whole of Scotland, training teachers to deliver coding in school, and delivering Mini Courses outside of the school environment, reaching over 2,500 young people.

The programme, recently revised, now also includes an introduction to the “Internet of Things” course pilot and careers advice. Additional Scotland events are undertaken which feature a marketplace environment for young people to showcase their projects and entrepreneurial talent and be able to access a broader pipeline of opportunities to further their biz and tech skills
