Promoting Coding in The Bahamas

CBF is committed to promoting knowledge of coding to understand and master communication with our digital world. Digital solutions involve innovation, creativity, and logic.  Computer science education starting in primary school promotes computational thinking which is the foundation of digital literacy. In this age of digitalization, we understand that the future generations of Bahamians must be technology-ready to drive sustainable economic growth of the country and to take advantage of the positive social changes this will bring about.
