We are proud to announce the launch of the Code4000 Product Development Programme! The first remote code review initiative run in UK prisons. Students work with professional software developers over 8 weeks, sharing their code via GitHub to be reviewed by a Code4000 mentor.

Ariel was one of two hiring managers involved in our employability roundtables. Fielding several questions from our students, she was able to draw on her considerable experience to suggest realistic strategies to mitigate the effect of a criminal record on employment prospects.

[Code4000 @code4000uk]

Our employability roundtables are about more than just practical advice. Highlighting the connection between coding training and actual tech employment, they inspire our students to think about their futures and to step out of their comfort zones to reach their real potential.

@dylanbeattie We're really grateful for your involvement, Dylan! We cannot understate the value of connecting our students directly with people from the industry. Thank you!

[Code4000 @code4000uk]

Last week we started a series of employability roundtables at Wandsworth. Students were joined by hiring managers Dylan and Ariel, and C4K graduate Franky, and discussed employment opportunities in software development. In the 1st profile of the panel members, we introduce Dylan.

Just had a call with the inspirational @LaraSuzuki who is onboard to support us to change lives through teaching tech. She is a huge advocate of women in technology, something Code4000 hope to further as we look to open our first coding academy in a women's prison. @Catch22

[Code4000 @code4000uk]

Proud to see Code4000 students @HMPHumber working on various commercial projects. What does one of our students have to say about it? “I love the freedom and the creativity, even though I finished the initial idea in a week, I keep adding bits and improving.”
