Leagues of Code (“LoC”) is an online coding and mathematics academy for children and young adults aged 9-18, created to encourage, develop and hone the skills required in a new tech-dominated world. LoC’s programme is designed to help the leaders of tomorrow learn one of the most crucial skills - competent problem-solving behavior. LoC’s mission is to provide affordable, personalized high quality online education in coding and math to children around the world.
The retention period is 36 months following the collection of the data or consent is revoked.
Every student who signs up to the program benefits from a free induction period, which includes an orientation session, the placement test (to understand their level) and the first module.
In some special promotional cases, the free trial can be extended to more than that. In any case, a student is only allowed one free trial period in any of Leagues of Code products; those include but are not limited to the regular program, open cups and camps.
Generally, we have many starting dates (cohort launches) throughout the year. Any new student signed up will start on a specific starting date (by default, the next one).
From that starting date, the student will have a free trial period after which they start the active period (paying).
The student agrees to attend classes in a minimum percentage that will be stipulated in relation to the theoretical content of each training action, as a general rule it is 70%. Only 1 absence per module is allowed.
To issue the course diploma, the student must pass all 10 modules of a league’s exams with a minimum passing grade of 70% for each module. Not achieving this grade will lead to the repetition of the same module and will delay the course diploma accordingly as well as further progress on the course.
The course will have the content reflected on the official website. The LoC curriculum spans the full spectrum from absolute beginner to the most advanced international programming competition level such as IOI.
It is organised in 5 Leagues (Apprentice, Junior, Senior, Pro, and Super), each composed of 10 modules of 4 weeks. New students are initially positioned into one of 3 Divisions within a League - A (advanced), B (basic) or C (casual), depending on the outcome of their placement test.
Extra-curriculum content may be offered to students during breaks and holidays at an extra charge or for free Activities may include but are not limited to the following:
Summer Camps - usually organized in July, is an optional activity, paid separately. Ideal for catching up, or accelerating to move to higher division and leagues. Also, to meet in person with faculty.
Open Cups - ad hoc or regular additional training opportunities to improve knowledge and individual rank in the LoC open to any participants within and outside LoC ecosystem
Ad Hoc Intensive Training Week/s - by invitation only, additional and optional intensive offline training hosted by LoC and/or Harbour.Space University with faculty from LoC for aspiring future champions.
Specialised 3-week intensive courses in Harbour.Space University - by invitation only, on an ad hoc basis LoC participants may be invited to attend online and offline courses at the university either on full or partial scholarship based on the recommendation from the LoC’s Academic Director.
Each module consists of weekly online sessions with live instructors, one-on-ones, webinars with industry leaders, practical problem solving, team and individual contests, structured as follows:
Hello World is a stand alone LoC product which is is a 12-week programme designed for coding enthusiasts, aged 10+ who want to start their programming journey! Coding is the language of the future and the sooner your child becomes skilled at it the better. There is no previous coding experience required and all concepts are explained in simple ways. By learning how to code with Python, students will acquire great logic and problem solving skills. All kids will finish the course by creating their own project and enjoying the beauty of making programs by themselves. Detailed program description is available on LoC web site www.leaguesofcode.com
As LoC is the official trainer of the Olimpiada Informática Española (Spanish Computer Science Olympiads) the Olympics program is a stand-alone LoC product which is addressed to train those kids that want to participate and compete in the Spanish Olympiads of Informatics, that is the national computer programming contest for secondary school, high school, and intermediate level (or equivalent) students.
The language that students will learn is C++, and there is no previous coding experience required as all concepts are explained in simple ways. Even so, we offer different classes according to the levels of students, so we either can train those who are starting or those who have enough knowledge to represent Spain in the international part.
The course, which includes 2 hours per class on weekends + homework to do during the week, starts on November 1st of 2022 and ends on June 30th of 2023.
The student (or legal representative) agrees to pay the total amount of the course to be carried out in accordance with the concepts and conditions stipulated below or in the course catalogue.
