HOW LONG DOES BOOTCAMP LAST?
Sessions are up to 16 weeks long and cohort time is from 9 a.m. to 3p.m. on Saturdays. However, our apprentices are driven and love what they do. Most of our apprentices also work on projects on their own during evenings in order to better develop their portfolio.
HOW WILL YOU HELP ME FIND A JOB?
Employers are invited to connect with our students near the conclusions of the program. In a speed dating format, apprentices and employers get the opportunity to connect about current career opportunities. Our masters and mentors also assist you in your job search.

Then you’re like most of our apprentices! The most important thing is that you remain committed to learning and becoming the best developer that you can be. If you bring an open mind, motivation and a passion for technology, our experts will teach you what you need to know to become proficient as a developer.
WHAT IF I HAVE PRIOR PROGRAMMING EXPERIENCE?
Not a problem. We have plenty of apprentices who have had exposure to programming enroll in our program. We do a deep dive into the latest techniques so we’ll make sure your skills are up to date. Plus, with small cohort sizes we can personalize our instruction based on your current skill level.
HOW DOES THIS COMPARE TO LEARNING VIA ONLINE RESOURCES?
There are several online resources available to help you learn how to code. In fact, we encourage you to explore the different coding tools at your disposal because they can provide you with good exposure to basic skills and techniques. However, if you’re really serious about becoming a web developer, nothing compares to the expertise, rigor and personalized attention you’ll receive in our program. Lean on our industry veterans to help you learn the skills you need to get the job you want. Masters are available during class to answer all questions, and your guildies encourage and support you along the way.
HOW DOES THIS COMPARE TO TRADITIONAL CLASSROOM LEARNING?
The difference is that we will help you master real-world, end-to-end development as opposed to simply introducing you to basic concepts. While traditional classrooms focus on lectures followed by take-home exercises, we spend the majority of the time collaborating on projects and coding in pairs and small groups. Instead of just learning something, you’ll actually build something that will give you the development experience you need to perform on the job.
