This Intro to Coding Short Course introduces students of all backgrounds to computing and coding, with an emphasis on creating games, projects, and other useful tools. Programming will be taught in Scratch and Python (a common language taught to first-year university students).

After completing the course, students should be confident in using their newfound abilities to make their own programs in the future, in the knowledge they have learnt from some of Australia's best tutors.

Public speaking is one of the most important and valuable skills, and can be used to distinguish a good student from a great future leader. All it takes is a few simple techniques and strategies to become a charismatic speaker.

This course will help you overcome nervousness, come up with a captivating story, engage your audience effectively, and even improvise skilfully.

This is such an Amazing idea!
I would very interested in going to the coding and the public speaking course, alas I don't think I'll be free.

Hopefully this short courses series is a success and will happen again in the future!

Is it possible these courses will run again in future? Have they been previously run in the past?

First time! We'd love to run more beyond December but nothing guaranteed yet. :)
