Crack the Code is a series of free virtual coding workshops for elementary to middle school students to introduce or further the principles of Computer Science, Web Development, Cybersecurity and more. Our goal is to inspire the younger generation to pursue careers in different technology fields through hands-on experience and mentorship with volunteer role models. Workshops take place one Saturday per month.

This collaborative year-long virtual series inspires the next generation of female leaders and brings professional women from a variety of career stages and backgrounds and high schoolgirls across NJ together to share advice, learn new skills, and set goals for the future. Students register for the hour-long sessions held on Wednesdays at 5pm.
