Student stories

What finishing it was worth

The cohort was the thing I did not expect. Four of us still review each other’s work every month, two years after the course finished.

Rosa Lindqvist

Product designer, Helsinki

I came in able to write a little JavaScript and left able to ship. The assessment was harder than the interview I passed a month later.

Michael Chen

Front-end developer, Toronto

Sixteen people means you cannot hide, which is exactly why it worked. My tutor knew which bit I was stuck on before I said so.

Amara Diallo

Data analyst, Dakar

Questions

Before you enrol

Do I need experience to start?

For the beginner courses, none at all. Anything marked intermediate lists what it assumes at the top of the syllabus, and the fifteen-minute conversation before you enrol exists to check that honestly.

How much time does a course take?

One live session a week, ninety minutes, plus about three hours of coursework. Sessions are recorded, so missing one is recoverable.

What happens if I have to stop?

You keep your place in the next run of the same course at no extra cost, once. Beyond that we refund the remaining weeks.

Is the certificate worth anything?

It is assessed and verifiable, which is more than most online certificates. It is not a degree, and we do not pretend otherwise.

Can my employer pay?

Yes — we invoice directly and can provide the paperwork most training budgets need. Ask for it when you enrol.
