We’re at Data Fest 2026! 📈 Come and say hi to Frank (founder of Code Division) Bianca () and Roxolana one of our amazing learners.

We can’t wait to share all the exciting things we’ve been up to.

We’re living through the biggest shift in how we work, think, and connect — and yet most young people leave school without the skills to navigate it. 🌏

💼 The World Economic Forum’s Future of Jobs Report 2025 identifies creative thinking, analytical thinking, and empathy as the most crucial skills for the workforce of tomorrow.

🧠 And 72% of teachers already feel that students’ critical thinking skills need urgent improvement.

So we’re co-designing a new unit. It’s accredited with the Scottish Credit and Qualifications Framework Partnership ( ) -in partnership with and Edinburgh College. Teaching integral human skills in schools - launch date TBC!

Being shortlisted for a ScotlandIS Tech for Good Award is thanks to all our learners, mentors, partners, tutors, funders, and our wider network community.

Over the past two years, Code Division—working with and —has delivered more than digital courses. Using design thinking, we’ve built learning with people, responding to real lives, changing labour markets, and wellbeing needs.

With the support of Tay Cities, Data Skills for Work, and Dundee City Council, we focused on people excluded from traditional tech pathways. We prioritised employability, confidence, resilience, and mental wellbeing alongside technical skills.

Together, we’ve created inclusive digital, data, coding and marketing pathways grounded in accredited learning, mentorship, and community.
