MILO Coding Academy: Empowering Diverse Communities

Diversity @ Milo Coding Academy

 

Welcome to Milo Coding Academy!

At Milo Coding Academy (MCA), we believe that technology should be accessible to everyone, regardless of their background. We warmly welcome individuals of all races, ethnicities, and identities to join our community.


Our Commitment to Diversity

MCA is committed to fostering an inclusive environment. We actively support underrepresented students, including African American, Latinx, Native American, Girls and other minorities to the world of technology. Our programs aim to provide equal opportunities for all, ensuring that everyone has a chance to explore coding, programming, and computer science.


Diversity Programs

  • Scholarships and Mentorships: We offer scholarships and mentorship programs to empower students from diverse backgrounds. Our mentors guide and inspire students, helping them succeed in STEM careers.
  • Coding Club: Our Milo Computer Coding Club provides underrepresented children with opportunities to develop coding skills. We encourage students who have completed our courses to continue coding through the club, even up to the college level1.
