In today’s fast-changing world, digital literacy is no longer a luxury, it’s a necessity. Kenya’s Competency-Based Curriculum (CBC) has opened the door for 21st-century skills like coding. These skills prepare students for a future driven by technology and innovation. Yet, while the demand for digital skills grows, the reality on the ground tells a different story.
Many teachers in Kenya want to introduce coding to their students. However, they face serious barriers: limited training opportunities, low confidence, and few resources. For some, coding feels like a foreign language—intimidating and out of reach.
That’s where All Things Programming comes in. Our “From Zero to Hero” training model guides teachers step-by-step. It starts with zero prior experience and takes them to certified coding instructor level.
Through hands-on learning, mentorship, and real classroom practice, we give educators more than just technical skills. We help them build the confidence to inspire the next generation of Kenyan innovators.

Why Teachers Matter in Kenya’s Coding Revolution
Teachers are more than just instructors, they are the architects of the future. In Kenya’s fast-changing education landscape, they hold the power to prepare students for a world where technology is at the heart of every profession.
With the Competency-Based Curriculum (CBC) emphasising creativity, problem-solving, and practical skills, Coding Kenya has become a movement toward making programming a core competency in schools. It’s not just about teaching students how to use technology, but how to create with it, opening doors to opportunities in software development, robotics, data science, and more.
The influence of a single teacher is immense. One trained coding instructor can introduce hundreds of learners to programming, sparking curiosity, confidence, and innovation in every classroom they touch. This ripple effect means that empowering just one educator today can transform entire communities tomorrow, creating a generation ready to thrive in Kenya’s growing digital economy.
At All Things Programming, we believe that teachers are the true catalysts of Kenya’s coding revolution. Our mission is to give them the tools, skills, and confidence to lead this transformation with impact and purpose.
Our “From Zero to Hero” Training Model – Confidence at Every Stage
At All Things Programming, we’ve built a training pathway that removes fear, builds skill, and inspires confidence from day one. Our “From Zero to Hero” model is specifically designed for Kenyan teachers, whether you’ve never touched a line of code or you’re simply looking to refresh your tech skills.
- Beginner-Friendly Start – No prior coding knowledge is required. We start with the basics, ensuring every teacher feels comfortable and supported before moving forward.
- Hands-On Learning – Teachers learn by doing, creating real-world projects they can later teach in their own classrooms. This practical approach makes coding more tangible and less intimidating.
- Step-by-Step Curriculum – Our lessons are structured for gradual skill growth, avoiding overwhelming jargon and focusing on clarity and simplicity.
- Interactive Support – We offer live mentorship sessions, open Q&A forums, and peer collaboration groups so no teacher ever feels alone in their learning journey.
- Practical Application – During the program, teachers get real classroom practice, applying what they’ve learned to inspire and guide their students effectively.
By the end of the program, participants don’t just know how to code, they know how to teach coding with confidence, becoming role models and leaders in their schools and communities.
Building Teacher Confidence – Our Secret Ingredient
We know that learning a new skill, especially coding, can feel intimidating. That’s why our approach is built around one core principle: confidence before complexity.
- Safe Learning Environment – We create a space where teachers can experiment, make mistakes, and learn without fear of judgment. Every error is treated as a valuable step toward mastery.
- Personalized Guidance – No two teachers start at the same point. We tailor our training to meet educators exactly where they are in their tech journey, ensuring they move forward at a comfortable pace.
- Success Milestones – Progress is celebrated at every stage, whether it’s writing a first line of code, debugging a program, or completing a full project. These small wins build momentum and motivation.
- Inspiring Role Models – Many of our trainers were once beginners themselves. Their personal stories of growth remind every participant that if they could do it, so can you.
This combination of encouragement, structure, and relatable mentorship is what transforms nervous beginners into confident, capable coding instructors who are ready to inspire the next generation.
From Certification to Classroom Impact
Completing our program is more than just finishing a course, it’s a transformation. At All Things Programming, every graduate earns an internationally recognized certification as a coding instructor, a credential that opens doors and commands respect in the education sector.
Throughout the training, teachers gain skills that go far beyond coding:
- Programming Logic – Understanding how to think like a programmer and solve problems systematically.
- Web Development Basics – Building and teaching simple websites and interactive applications.
- Problem-Solving – Equipping students to think critically and independently.
- Teaching Strategies – Turning technical concepts into lessons that are clear, engaging, and age-appropriate.
Upon certification, every teacher leaves with a ready-to-use coding curriculum, complete with lesson plans, activities, and projects they can implement immediately in their classrooms.
Take the story of Mary from Kisumu. When she joined our program, she had never coded before. Today, she leads her school’s coding club and mentors students for robotics competitions. She is inspiring a wave of young innovators in her community. Her journey shows what’s possible when teachers are given the right tools, skills, and confidence.
Why All Things Programming Stands Out
In a crowded field of digital training options, All Things Programming stands out as the go-to choice for Kenyan teachers who want real results. Our impact speaks for itself:
-
Proven Track Record – We consistently transform complete beginners into confident, certified coding instructors. These teachers now shape the future of tech education in their schools and communities.
-
Strong School Partnerships – We work closely with schools to integrate coding lessons smoothly. This makes the transition easy for teachers and students alike.
-
Ongoing Alumni Support – Graduation is just the beginning. Our alumni get continuous learning opportunities, tech updates, and a supportive network to keep skills sharp.
-
Commitment to Kenya’s Digital Literacy Goals – All our training aligns with Kenya’s vision for digital inclusion and economic growth. Our teachers are part of a nationwide movement.
By combining world-class training, practical support, and a passion for Kenya’s future, we don’t just teach coding—we build leaders in technology education.
