At NTT DATA FOUNDATION we have designed this FREE programme for children aged 7 to 16 to expand their digital skills in a fun and easy way. Participants will develop their creativity, critical thinking, communication skills, time management, and will create video games, animations, stories, etc., with which they will learn to approach technology as producers, not only as consumers.
They are an international programming competition in which participants access an online platform for an education/training phase, culminating in a competition in which they put their acquired knowledge and skills into practice. Participants can progress at their own pace and are supported by a personal trainer who, as in any Olympiad, will help them prepare for the grand final.
Because it is the best opportunity to awaken children's interest in programming and technology.
Because it will give them skills to be able to use technology as a tool to solve problems.
Because they will develop skills so that they can access better academic, employment and professional opportunities in the future.
Because they will develop soft skills such as creativity, curiosity, teamwork, critical thinking, resilience, etc.
Because it is based on a pedagogical model that allows taboos to be broken, empowering children to know that if they can think it, they can create it.
