FAQs
I don't know how to code, can I still come?
Absolutely! This event is designed to give people of all programming skill levels an opportunity to learn how to code. I'm in elementary school. Am I too young for this event?
Unfortunately, the workshops were not designed in a suitable manner for elementary students. Any elementary student who attends ACE Code Day will be sent a discretion letter confirming their willingness to participate. |
Can my parents attend?
Unfortunately, we do not encourage parents to stay for the entire duration of the event. However, we strongly encourage parents to attend the Meet and Greet to see the cool apps that you have made. I see a "Meet and Greet" in the schedule. What is it?
The Meet and Greet is going to be a fun event at the end of ACE Code Day. Participants will get a chance to socialize and try the apps they have developed. In addition to that, the Meet and Greet will also have food, prize redemption opportunities, a t-shirt store, Xbox Kinect demos, and more! |
I'm not very good at coding, is it still possible for me to win prizes?
Yes! Everybody at ACE Code Day will go home with a prize regardless of skill level. However, the grand prize recipients will be left up to a panel of selected judges and prizes will be divided into different participation categories. How do I sign up for workshops? And what workshops will be right for me?
You can learn more about workshops and the different levels of coding experience recommended to attend the workshops on the workshops page of this site. Additionally, you can sign up for workshops on the same page. |
