Codester does not capture personal identifying information of students. Students do not need to create an account. Teacher's will create student accounts and distribute login information in class. Higher level coding classes then to be "harder" and have fewer registrations. This class is priced to allow us to run it even if we only have 1 student. While our goal is to help students connect with peers in an online classroom, we also aim to avoid cancelations. This class will run even if only 1 student is registered. In the event that you decide this class is not a good fit, please communicate this with us. Running a group class for only 1 student is costly, and we will happily work with you find a class that is a better fit. We look forward to working with your young programmer.
Class enrollment fee includes the cost of the Codester platform. No additional fees.
