Who We Are

Mission Bit is dedicated to inspiring and empowering the next generation of tech innovators. We build professional pathways for high school youth across the SF Bay Area by making computer science education more accessible to those traditionally underrepresented in tech.

We give students the opportunity to learn directly from successful engineers and entrepreneurs who enjoy sharing knowledge. We're focused on project based learning and aim to teach both core computer science concepts as well as the practical skills and technologies that are required to build web sites and applications today.
