About C.O.D.E
C.O.D.E is a relatively new pathway that students should begin to really consider as all careers uses technology in one form or the other. Someone has to develop and maintain the software so why not you! Both teachers are C-STEM certified teachers and work closely with UC Davis to develop challenging curriculum for the students using robotics and proprietary software.
The courses are designed to provide students with access to various industry standard software to be able to develop and create Apps, webpages, creating, designing and developing databases that can be translated into real world scenarios. Students walk away with the knowledge to perform at an entry level positions in the technology industry. About 531,200 jobs are needed in this industry (bls.gov see below).
Competitions teams are available and strongly encourage for students to practice and build upon their knowledge of what they learned. Competitions or awards and scholarships available are:
Courses required for the C.O.D.E Pathway:
Prerequisite: Computer Technology
Computer and Information Technology Occupations
Employment in computer and information technology occupations is projected to grow 11 percent from 2019 to 2029, much faster than the average for all occupations. These occupations are projected to add about 531,200 new jobs. Demand for these workers will stem from
greater emphasis on cloud computing, the collection and storage of big data, and information security.
The median annual wage for computer and information technology occupations was $88,240 in May 2019, which was higher than the
median annual wage for all occupations of $39,810.
