What is a micro:bit Champion?
A micro:bit Champion helps remove barriers to learning digital skills by using the micro:bit. They do this by building and supporting communities of educators and other micro:bit enthusiasts. A Champion works in collaboration with the Foundation, aligning with our values and joining our mission to inspire every child to create their best digital future.
