START YOUR CAREER AS A SOFTWARE DEVELOPER

Our online courses teach a tried-and-tested curriculum tailored to assure students graduate as well-rounded software developers. Using real-world tools, students learn from some of the country’s top instructors.

Industry Led

Our course is designed with industry and constantly updated to match the skills employers tell us they want.

Career-first approach

Throughout the course, you will build a portfolio of projects to showcase your skills to potential employers, with seven specialist career sessions led by our Student Engagement team.

Support

You will speak regularly with Student Engagement Executives to ensure you are progressing, to work through any issues and arrange 1-2-1's should you need them.

Not Just Coding

We don't just teach you to code, we teach the fundamentals and how you can problem solve, work better in a team, working remotely, what it's like working in tech and how to shine a light on the soft skills that make you stand out.

RETRAIN AROUND YOUR JOB

Transition from a beginner – with no prior coding experience – to a job-ready Software Engineer in 24 weeks on our Software Engineer programme.

We spend a lot of time asking companies what specific skills they look for and design our live, remote curriculum to include learning activities that help you master each key skill.

In this course, we will cover:

Prework

To make sure they can dedicate the required 20 hours a week to complete the course, we ask potential students to complete some prework on our platform before starting the bootcamp.

Phase 1

Students start with front end development learning about the DOM and how to make websites with HTML, CSS, JavaScript and Bootstrap, a front-end framework.

Our students also learn about UX, peripheral technologies, TDD, OOP and testing front-end applications.

Phase 2

Students learn React and how to use Redux, Express and Node.js to run code for the back end, and focus on ways of dealing with asynchronous programming.

Students also learn APIs and Databases.

Phase 3

Phase 3 is where students learn technologies outside the curriculum, such as PHP, Laravel, AWS and Azure.

Students then work together on a final project of their choosing using Agile principles to get hands on with a real, green-field team project. There’s no better way to consolidate and extend your knowledge and prove what you can do.

I joined as their first data science cohort in March 2021 and finished in August 2021 over the course of 24 weeks. I like how the bootcamp is open to all regardless of your educational background, and I feel supported throughout the programme as there is a dedicated Slack channel for all students and instructors. The class size was small, about 4-5 people which keeps it easy to ask questions to your instructors. The instructors were also experienced in their industries so you can be sure you're getting a quality education. I would recommend this to anyone interested in pursuing a profession in software engineering or data science, whether you're looking to upskill or change career.

I joined their part-time bootcamp in June and just finished it last week. Amazing how far I've come. The curriculum does a good job of developing a working knowledge of Html, JavaScript, CSS, React, etc as well as backend stuffs. Their positive and inclusive learning environment and dedication to help you post-bootcamp is worth recommending. I feel prepared to get a job in the software industry.

I started with the Developer Academy to learn basic coding skills and to understand more about the different languages used. I was made to feel really welcome, supported and encouraged. It was a nice, relaxed environment but with structure supplied by their online learning platform. I now have a much better understanding of things like HTML, CSS and Javascript
