| Codeit | While the software industry is booming and demand for people with software skills is greater than ever, the education just isn't there. Codeit tackles the education problem with three simple solutions: (1) better content, (2) better platform, (3) for an affordable price. Codeit provides an interactive online platform to teach today'smost in-demand skills—programming and data science. We have had over 100,000 students, the vast majority of whom decided a change in career. We certainly are proud of our achievements so far in better equipping the world with digital skills. However, Codeit exists to serve a bigger purpose—to help people "learn to love learning". Our take on education is that it's much more than about simply imparting knowledge. It's about bringing out the innate human affinity towards learning. We began our journey in South Korea teaching programming and data science. Our next step is to expand globally, and to extend our offerings to include topics like design, marketing, and product management.
