BDPA Twin Cities
Turn Your Child from a Video Game Player to a Game Builder
Discover Coding Classes for Students in Grades 3-12.
Build Coding Skills. Build Skills for Life.
Your child can do more than use technology. Through BDPA Twin Cities' Youth Programmatic Thinking program, students learn coding while strengthening problem-solving, critical thinking, creativity, confidence and persistence.
Students in grades 3–12 are placed into Scratch or Python based on their age, experience and skill level.
Fall 2026 classes begin Saturday, September 26 at Saint Paul College.
Ready for the Next Level in Technology?
For high school students ready to go beyond introductory coding, BDPA Twin Cities offers the High School Technology Program (HSTP)—a 14-week online learning experience focused on coding, web development, and real-world technology skills.
Students learn from technology professionals while building experience with Python, JavaScript, HTML/CSS, web development, IT fundamentals, and problem-solving. No previous experience is required, and students progress as their skills grow.
Spring 2027 classes begin in February.
Saturdays | 10 AM–12 PM | Online via Zoom
