As she continues her studies at Kennedy-King College, cybersecurity student Favour Gbadamosi already has an impressive resume.
Kennedy-King helped Favour land an internship at SDI Presence, where she spent over a year updating software for the company’s laptops and computers. Her most recent project is learning app development through the Anyone Can Code program.
Everyone Can Code is a partnership between City Colleges and Apple that offers students a paid technical internship and experiential learning opportunity. This summer, students from both Truman College and Kennedy-King College are participating in the program.
Favour and her classmates are learning iOS development and critical thinking skills that will help them in school, college, careers, and life. This summer, participants looked for a problem in their community and created an app to help solve the problem. Favour’s group created an app that teaches kindergarten students how to read, write, and pronounce letters.
“Everyone Can Code is a great program to be a part of,” said Favour. “It’s great to have Apple on your resume. It pays off, you get experience using iOS, and you learn skills that I can use outside of Kennedy-King and in my future career.”
Everyone Can Code is part of the Tech Launchpad at Kennedy-King College. The Kennedy-King College Tech Launchpad provides students with access to high-quality academic and technical training. This ensures that students are prepared to navigate the tech ecosystem and launch careers in tech at a variety of companies.
