Introduction to Coding Course

Future-Proof Yourself

TAFE Queensland East Coast in partnership with Sunshine Coast Council and Regional Development Australia Sunshine Coast are delivering this course for anyone looking to develop their skills in coding. Get started with the basics of coding using a range of applications to develop coding and programming skills. Students will begin by looking to understand coding principles with a focus on JavaScript. This course is designed for first timers, students looking to develop entry level skills in coding or existing employees looking to enhance their role with coding skills.

Coding is a universal language and in high demand worldwide. It’s estimated that by 2025 there will be a significant lack of qualified Coders and Programmers, with employment projected to grow much faster than in other sectors.
