How does a teacher get trained on TKP Courseware? Do you run events or classes?
Self-study. TKP provides materials online for maximum scalability.
No, TKP does not have the resources to run our own events
Many organizations, such as the US Boys and Girls Clubs, IGNITE Seattle, Microsoft DigiGirlz, JavaOne4Kids, OSCON Kids Day (and more) have chosen our courseware to be part of their events.
Do you have TKP-style courses for other coding languages?
We are experimenting with several other programming languages (Python, R and more).
You are welcome to follow our main repository on GitHub.
Are TKPJava materials available in Spanish, etc…?
Our materials are in US English. However, we welcome localization efforts from volunteers.
All code lessons are open source and hosted on GitHub and can be forked for localization with attribution per our license.
