It's a great program to learn a new skill while at the same time earning a digital certificate! It's also very beginner friendly to help eliminate the anxiety of contributing to open source. :)
No coding is needed to complete this program! We will have all kinds of issues available, so you can complete the program without ever coding.
We are working on Mentorship Backend, Mentorship Android, STEM diverse TV and Bridge In Tech. So, for the coding issues, it would be helpful to know Python, Kotlin or JavaScript.
Anyone can participate! There can be a 13 year old contributor who's been coding since primary school or a retired 70 year old who has never coded before! Check the "Eligibility" section for additional details.
