SRND and LexisNexis Risk Solutions Introduce the CodeDay Big Data Challenge
Summary
On November 9, thousands of high school students across the country will compete to solve real-world problems in the CodeDay Big Data Challenge. SRND, a non-protfit organization that promotes STEM education for high school students and LexisNexis® Risk Solutions have partnered to offer the competition - which is a newly added twist for CodeDay, a 24-hour programming event hosted seasonally in 53 cities across the US and Canada. Increasingly, that requires working with the tremendous amount of data available," said Tyler Menezes, Executive Director at SRND. “We hope this new program helps to encourage students to build the skills and knowledge that is necessary to pursue technology careers.” To learn more about the CodeDay and the Big Data Challenge, please visit http://www.codeday.org.
