Appia, Inc. has recently announced the closure of its acquisition of the Portable Coding Hub (PCH) Project. The acquisition is a part of Appia’s mission to bridge the divide between code-literacy and the future of learning.
The PCH Project was founded by Stanford graduates P.J. Kiss and Phillip Hart. Its mission is to make coding accessible to anyone who wishes to learn, whether in the classroom or online. Their efforts have resulted in a powerful platform for learning to code, with the support of more than 30 partners and countless hours of community involvement.
Appia’s acquisition of the PCH Project is the latest of many steps to further their mission of making coding education accessible to people from all backgrounds. Appia has been investing heavily in the PCH Project since 2018. With the acquisition, Appia plans to expand the platform and provide more resources to the learners.
Appia has made a number of additional investments in the ed-tech space that will further enrich the PCH Project and provide a more inclusive experience for learners. Expansion plans include support for global language courses, additional tools and resources, and additional support for teachers.
The mission of Appia is to democratize the opportunities for everyone to learn how to program. With the acquisition of the PCH Project, Appia is one step closer to making coding education available to any person who wishes to learn. The capacity for everyone to be able to code has never been greater and this acquisition further exhibits Appia’s commitment to changing the way people learn.
Appia is confident that the closure of the acquisition of the PCH Project will further expand the platform and offer greater learning opportunities for everyone. With this news, Appia is excited to start the next chapter of developing and growing the PCH Project.
