İlhan said, "At the Programming School, I work as a trial course manager as well as an educational consultant, and we help children, who are interested in computers, coding, and artificial intelligence, to decide which course(s) will be the best for them. After the trial lessons that I have provided to the children and their families, the students are placed in the courses that suit them. We also provide them with educational counseling and guidance throughout their education in the Programming School."
Kodland Programming School, which enables children to learn digital skills and practice developing these skills with real projects, brings out their entrepreneurial side. The school encourages children to believe in themselves and realize their ideas.
