Courses

Our Hope IT courses are geared for beginners.  We offer our courses in October, February and June.  We meet for 4 Saturday mornings in these months, and each session is about 2 hours long.  You’ll be amazed how quickly you can learn new skills, and we think you will have fun.  Join us, and sign up for our next course (by contacting your organization or church leader.)

Hope IT course coming up:

Our next in-person course coming up in October 2023 will be teaching Robotics, creating simple circuits, using sensors and motors (servo), and programming some logic for the robot to flash LED lights and respond with its sensors. See this link for an overview.  Sign up by clicking here.  There is no charge for this course, and again will be an in-person.  Reach out if your students are interested.

In September 2021, Hope IT was very grateful to partner with Liberia Renewal Ministries (LRM), offering a Basic Computer Skills course for 15 students in Liberia, Africa.  How do you guide students that have never touched a computer before?  What if a Hope IT student taught this course?  That is exactly what happened!
