Data Scientist Brianne Caplan Is Offering Virtual Coding Camps For Students Nationwide To Narrow STEM’s Education Gap

June 12, 2020/

Brianne Caplan, a data scientist and the founder of CoderHeroes and Code Your Dreams.

Data scientist Brianne Caplan’s recent launch of CoderHeroes, and its CoderCamp program, has two parts: students nationwide can sign up for computer science learning in lieu of cancelled in-person camps—a boon at a time when coronavirus is threatening summer activities. A portion of each virtual CoderCamp tuition is then donated back to her Code Your Dreams after-school program, which provides middle and high school students in low-income Chicago communities with free computer science courses as well as access to the laptops, WiFi and android devices they need for coding and app creation.
