What We Do
The International Alliance of Youth Coding Educators (“IAYCE”, pronounced eye-ACE-eee) was formed in 2014 as a global alliance to share best practices and ideas among the top coding schools in the world. Our goal is to group together to discuss, ideate, and form best practices and standards that strengthen our respective schools and help kids around the world learn to code. Join us and contribute to a network of instructors and managers with a wealth of youth coding education knowledge.
IAYCE's member schools created an app gallery that shows what students from around the world can do. Check out a random app sample on the left here, or just head over and take a look at our full App Gallery!
Our Philosophy
IAYCE believes that kids and teens around the world should learn the language of computers - coding. By learning how to code, youngsters are empowered. They see the computer as a tool of creation, instead of consumption. Pupils learn how to create an app, a game, or a website. They implement their visions in unique ways and help solve the problems they see in their world. In addition to a wide array of games, IAYCE's students have launched Apps to help organize their school’s drop-off and pick-up line, support family members with mental disability, and even play a robotic guitar.
Barack Obama, Mark Zuckerberg, Bill Gates, and many other world leaders have joined the quest for youth coding education. Learning to code opens countless exciting career and entrepreneurship opportunities for young adults. IAYCE believes that like any language, it is important to learn coding early on, and that kids and teens need not wait to be exposed to the amazing and infinite world of computer programming. If you're facing challenges with your homework, there are python programming homework help services that can provide the assistance you need to succeed in your coding journey.
The IAYCE is also firmly rooted in the famous words of the legendary Steve Jobs - "I think everyone in this country should learn to program a computer because it teaches you how to think". We observe daily in our students the improvement in numeracy, logic, and concentration. Whether kids grow up to be teachers, designers, or astronauts, the skills gained by learning to code will be an essential experience for their future careers.

Who We Are
Our School Values | IAYCE Code of Ethics |
|
|
IAYCE was formed by two leading coding centers in the USA and Brazil. The Coder School and MadCode began their pedagogic collaboration in 2014. By sharing their experiences in and out of the classroom, these schools accelerated their learning of how to best teach coding in their respective environments. Such best-practice exchanges helped them to open more centers, partner with schools, and develop their own approaches to curriculum.
The Coder School and MadCode soon realized that other educators around the world would benefit from such rich interactions and founded IAYCE. Since then, IAYCE has welcomed educators around the world.
We're always looking for new members from around the world to join us. If you are a top performing school, please scroll down and apply for your membership into IAYCE today!
