What type of skills do students need to have, if any?

Everyone with the passion and commitment is welcome to apply. We deliver a pre-work platform, before the program begins, in order to level up our students into the basics of Coding. No previous experience is mandatory.

What is unique about  your program compared to your peers?

We are a part-time program. We only teach Coding in a part-time methodology, based on a Flipped Classroom plus a Mastery learning approach (MIT papers supporting this method). Our graduates get an education similar to a full-time education but without quitting their jobs.
