HBCU Strong, AI smart: coding and creating a future without limitations
We are proud to highlight our leadership in the HBCU-C2 'Everyone Can Code and Create' Initiative, aimed at empowering faculty, staff, and students across our HBCU community! With the tremendous support from Apple, we've expanded our reach this year, welcoming more HBCUs into our collaborative effort. Through this initiative, we're providing essential training to community organizations like 100 Young Black Men and Girls Can Code. Our HBCU App Development Showcase has allowed student teams to design innovative apps that tackle real community and school issues.
This year, we're thrilled to announce our expansion into Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML), utilizing open educational resources (OER) to ensure our students have access to opportunities in these emerging technologies.
In an exciting development, we recently established a HBCU-C2 SMART Center in Ghana, where we'll offer credit courses for students and professional training for faculty.
We are committed to providing all learners with the tools and resources they need to succeed, and we’re thrilled to collaborate with Apple to amplify our impact globally!
