Meet our partners!
Fusion is proud to work closely with some incredible organisations, initiatives and individuals.
Our partners go above and beyond to nurture, grow and support the wider tech community. They are actively making a difference to the city and surrounding areas and we want to shout about it. We have worked alongside these groups over the years and have seen the impact their work and support has on our community.

Our goal is to enable underrepresented people to learn programming in a safe and collaborative environment and expand their career opportunities. To achieve this we run free regular workshops, regular one-off events and try to create opportunities for our students making technology and coding more accessible.

School of Code
School of Code offers a free 16 week online coding course open to applicants of all backgrounds. You don’t need to have any previous technical experience, or any qualifications. All you need is motivation, and to like solving problems! The purpose of the School of Code is to give everyone a route into technology, and teach them the skills they need to leap into the industry. With rising automation, the job landscape will change dramatically. We aim to prepare people with the tech skills and soft skills to become collaborative, creative coders. So far, we’ve achieved 90% employment from our previous cohorts. But, more important than stats, we’ve helped people completely change their lives for the better.
