The Future Is Digital

Through our programs and events like Digital Learning Day, YOU(th) can learn something new in tech.

WHO WE ARE

Time after time, we've heard the participants in YCDI programs say they never knew how much they could do with their skills, or that they could even create something powerful with code.

That's our mission.

To empower Jamaica’s youth through the use of technology and self-actualization.

WHAT STUDENTS SAY

RUTH-ANN ARMSTRONG

I would 100% recommend attending these workshops to anyone interested in web development, and I definitely plan to attend more in the future. You could attend with absolutely zero prior knowledge of web development, and leave having successfully made your first website. Learning web development has exposed me to a bunch of new opportunities, and I'm grateful to Youth Can Do I.T. for getting me started.

CEEJAY McCALLA

The workshops at YCDI has been truly inspiring. Through this initiative I have been briefed on the development of websites and coding, which has captivated my interest. I now try to code on my own as a hobby and try to learn new skills in coding. Also, I am now considering the idea of undertaking a career in programming and website development, after being exposed by YCDI to this fun career path.

SUDDENE STONE

The entire workshop was really amazing as it helped me to understand a topic I was just starting in school, Ms. Lianne made the activities very captivating and worthwhile, and I had fun while learning. Thank you YCDI and Dream Jamaica for giving me the opportunity to be apart of the activity.
