Testimonials

Hi my name is Katlego and i matriculated in 2017 – since then I have been looking for work. I am very interested in technology and coding and have applied online to the CodeX and Codespace school to get training. In January, I really needed a laptop and was sent an HP by an anonymous donor from WantedTech. This changed my life. Now I can code and attend the Codespace school online and I am hoping to attend CodeX in the future. Thank you so much to WantedTech and God Bless everyone involved in this.

My experience with Wanted Tech was awesome. It was so easy and user friendly. I really enjoyed reading through peoples stories and motivations. It was difficult to choose someone but by the end of the process I was really happy with my choice.
