Our 3-day camps take place primarily during school vacations. This is in the whole of Switzerland and also in your area. At some locations we also offer camps on afternoons and Saturdays during school weeks.

Working at Code Camp is very compatible with your studies or gives you the opportunity to pursue another meaningful activity in addition to your job and family. Your workload is flexible and we plan together for the next quarter. In order to "stay on the ball" and to keep the necessary security in teaching, we expect a minimum of 5 camps per year (i.e. at least 15 working days). Additional assignments are of course possible.

• Ensures the necessary flow of information to Code Camp's back office
  

Camp Managers may also be requested by a Head-Teacher to assist, such as assisting with a child with poor behavior or caring for a sick child.
