How the self-paced courses work

Step 1

Choose and enroll

A parent creates or signs in to a family account while registering, chooses the learner, and completes secure checkout. Once payment is verified, the course appears in the Student Dashboard automatically.

Step 2

Create, test, and repeat

Students open one guided Nearpod lesson at a time from the dashboard, build the project on their computer, and experiment as they learn.

Step 3

Track progress and get help

Students mark lessons complete in the dashboard, get troubleshooting help when needed, and earn a certificate after finishing the required units.

Not sure which course to choose?

Choose Roblox if your learner enjoys making interactive games and wants to begin Lua scripting. Choose Minecraft Modding if they enjoy Minecraft Java Edition and want to design their own blocks, tools, mobs, and visual-coded behaviors. Neither beginner course requires previous coding experience.

Students who benefit from live explanations and personalized projects can also explore 1-on-1 tutoring or private group classes.
