trinidat supports the Hacker School

trinidat has donated four notebooks to the Hacker School in Hamburg. The notebooks help the Hacker School to teach as many children and young people as possible how to program with low-threshold courses and to provide them with the necessary IT skills for the future. ‘It is incredibly important that children and young people learn how to program. Because coding is more than just a programmer’s education. It is digital empowerment. It is the ability not only to understand the digital future, but also to actively shape it,’ says Manfred Hoffbauer, managing director of trinidat.

For ten years, the Hacker School in Hamburg has been pursuing the mission of getting young people interested in programming. With the support of companies, schools and political actors, the Hacker School offers a range of courses in which young people, and in particular girls and young people from socio-economically disadvantaged backgrounds, learn how to program. In this way, children and young people not only learn how to operate a computer, but also understand how the digital world works. And along the way, the courses also teach skills such as logical thinking and stamina – two of the abilities that make a good programmer.
