Line 17: Speaking at the launch event in [[Cardiff Central Library]] Hub’s new digital floor, the Deputy Minister for Culture, Sport and Tourism, [[Ken Skates]], said “Learning new skills such as coding can open new doors to people. We are increasingly moving into an online world and it is important that people do not miss out on opportunities to develop these skills, which have the potential to create employment opportunities. I’m delighted to launch the National Coding Week in Wales and am pleased this is taking place in a library, which is the ideal place to get support to learn new skills. It’s particularly good to launch it in the new digital floor of Cardiff Central Library, which received a grant from the Welsh Government towards its modernisation.”<ref>{{cite news\|title='Developing Wales as a nation of Coders'\|url=http://www.weacymru.org.uk/en/news/109/0/developing-wales-as-a-nation-of-coders\|accessdate=7 February 2016\|work=WEA YMCA CC Cymru\|publisher=WEA YMCA CC Cymru\|date=28 August 2015\|ref=14}}</ref> In Scotland [http://www.scotlandis.com/about-scotlandis/our-board/ Polly Purvis] head of [http://www.scotlandis.com/ ScotlandIS] outlined Scottish plans for future tech growth and how National Coding Week fitted in.<ref>{{cite news\|title='ScotlandIS chief Polly Purvis on what lies in store for the tech industry'\|url=https://www.holyrood.com/articles/feature/scotlandis-chief-polly-purvis-what-lies-store-tech-industry\|accessdate=7 February 2016\|work=Hollyrood Magazine\|publisher=Dods Parliamentary Communications Ltd.\|date=24 September 2015\|ref=15}}</ref> Free coding lessons for adults were also offered all over [[Scotland]].<ref>{{cite news\|last1=Mackie\|first1=Gareth\|title='Free web coding session on offer by Yard'\|url=http://www.scotsman.com/business/companies/tech/free-web-coding-session-on-offer-by-yard-1-3888241\|accessdate=7 February 2016\|work=The Scotsman\|publisher=Johnston Publishing Ltd.\|date=16 September 2015\|ref=16}}</ref> In [[England]], Schools, Hubs, Businesses and libraries supported the week.<ref>{{cite web\|last1=Rolfe\|first1=Richard\|title='Libraries - how they can improve our digital literacy'\|url=http://www.cilip.org.uk/blog/libraries-how-they-can-improve-our-digital-literacy\|website=CILIP\|publisher=15 June 2015\|accessdate=7 February 2016\|ref=17}}</ref> In November 2015 Richard and Jordan won the CIPD Award for Diversity and Inclusion Strategy for their efforts in inspiring adults from all backgrounds to gain digital skills.<ref>{{cite news\|title='Industry recognition for digital training business'\|url=http://www.bailiwickexpress.com/jsy/business/industry-recognition-digital-training-business/#.Vrc1V_mLTIV\|accessdate=7 February 2016\|work=Bailiwick Express\|publisher=Bailiwick Publishing\|date=23 December 2015\|ref=18}}</ref> National Coding Week 2016 will run from 19 September to 25 September in the ~~[[USA]]~~United States, [[UK]] and [[Australia]]. ==References==
