The programme will see post-16 students from Guernsey develop and present digital and problem-solving skills. So far, 825 students have been signed up.
“We’re excited to bring back the Digital Innovator Programme for another year, and reveal the new format of the programme. By introducing new events, we’re looking to enhance the students’ learning, and working with Digital Greenhouse again on a great student programme,” said First Central Chief Information Officer, John Davison.
“As ever, the aim of the programme is to help lessen the digital skills gap, and supply students with the skills needed for a career in the technology sector. I’m looking forward to seeing what the students come up with at the Hackathon!”
This year has seen the introduction of a new 6-week virtual course on Artificial Intelligence.
“UCL Computer Science, the leading European AI Research Centre is excited to work with Guernsey Schools to help pioneer AI Education. If Guernsey students are highly skilled in AI and Programming their future is assured. It will also underpin Guernsey’s future prosperity,” said Professor Philip Treleaven.
