What is the Digital Kidz Ambassador Program?
The Digital Kidz Ambassador Program is a program that aims at encouraging parents to popularize or spread the positive use of new technologies and promote coding learning in children among their community.
As parents who care about the children’s well-being, we also encourage other parents to instill the love of programming in their children so that they become better digital actors.
The requirements to become a Digital Kidz Ambassador are not cumbersome and we don’t require parents to have programming skills. At Digital Kidz, we are looking for people who are willing, curious and enthusiastic about empowering children with technology.
Therefore, if you are curious and passionate about new technologies, whether or not you have programming skills and believe you are able to share the love for coding in your community, in your child’s school or in your village, our volunteer ambassador program is designed for you.
With the help of ambassadors, we will be able to create partnerships with institutions specializing in the teaching of new technologies, in order to offer extracurricular courses to children who don’t have the ability to access programming classes in urban centers, because of their geographic location.
Our program also offers the possibility of providing lessons at home. If you don’t have time to take your child to a computer course, or if there is no coding workshop in your region, we coordinate lessons with specialized institutions, in order to bring them to your home.
The program is not limited to parents only. Anyone can become an ambassador, including schools, municipalities, centers, etc.
If possible, we could organize a course for parents, to introduce them to coding like their children.
