global movement reaching tens of millions of students in 180+ countries and
over 30 languages. Ages 4 to 104.
But you do not have to wait (plus many of us in Australia will be on holidays, so why

How do I print certificates for my students?
Each student gets a chance to get a certificate via email when they finish the Code.org tutorials. Just click on the certificate to print it. However, if teachers want to make new certificates for your students, visit our Certificates page http://code.org/certificates to print as many certificates as you like, in one fell swoop!
