GDI rejects the stereotypes that women and non-binary individuals aren’t interested in technology and that people can’t learn tech as adults. GDI chooses to focus on affordable education services for adults who might otherwise be unable to access tech classes, letting them know it’s never too late for them to learn. We are raising $7,200 before May to provide 10 more scholarships in 2023. Please make a donation today and support our scholarships.
Instructors
Our Virtual Instructors are a huge part of our mission to empower women and non-binary adults. We believe that women and non-binary adults are interested and capable of learning to code, and we prove it through our workshops. GDI works with over 30+ instructors and teaching assistants to deliver our programs. Here are some of our outstanding virtual speakers and instructors who we have spotlighted on our blog.
