Part-time. Flexible. Affordable.
Most bootcamps run a Full Stack Software Developer program, but we found that it’s better to specialize in either Front End or Back End. Because of this, we offer two separate, full-length programs – one for each stack. This way, students spend more time mastering their selected track and becoming strong candidates for a role in development. Students meet for class once a week at a set time in a virtual environment. In addition to the weekly class meeting, students meet once a week for a remote, 30-minute one-on-one with a mentor.

Front End Software Engineering
Front End Software Engineers build the pieces of applications and websites that users see and interact with. This involves creating components that look good and provide functionality when a user interacts with them. It also involves interacting with Back End applications and displaying data in an aesthetically pleasing manner.
26 Week Course
Data Engineering
The Big Data Engineering Program is designed to introduce the technically inclined student to the technologies and methodologies requested by hiring companies and used by real world data engineers. This program is fast paced and will cover a breadth of technologies, including Python programming, Hadoop and cloud-based services in Amazon Web Services (AWS). The student will also be introduced to such methods as data wrangling, munging, ingesting and modeling for analytics. By the end of the program the successful student will be prepared for an entry-level position as a data engineer, Python programmer or business intelligence developer.
18 Week Course
Back End Software Engineering
Back End Software Engineers are in charge of building applications that do the behind-the-scenes work. This typically involves receiving requests from a Front End application, processing the request, reading and writing to a database, and responding back to requests from other applications.
16 Week Course
Digital Marketing
The Digital Marketing program is designed to help students with an interest in marketing create a portfolio and begin an entry level position in the digital marketing field. The curriculum is a project-based course that blends marketing theory, critical thinking skills, and practical experience to prepare students for an entry-level position in a growth industry. Students will become proficient in advertising platforms such as Facebook, Google, Instagram, Twitter, and LinkedIn. Our program provides a fast-paced, detailed curriculum with a full-breadth of digital marketing knowledge in order to be a competitive applicant in an ever-growing job market. Digital Marketing jobs are growing 112% faster than the U.S. national average job growth*.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the course instructor-led? What is the background and experience of your instructors?
Yes, the course is instructor led by experienced industry professionals who have teaching and training experience.
What is the structure of program?
Students meet virtually for class once a week for one and a half hours. In addition to the virtual weekly class meeting, students meet once a week for a remote, 30-minute one-on-one with a mentor.
The academic week starts 3 days before class; at that time students review curriculum and start working on the week’s assignments. When we meet for class, the instructor answers student questions, asks questions to ensure understanding of concepts, and then assigns and assists with hands-on projects for the students to complete in class.
For example, if class is on Thursday, students get their curriculum and assignments on Monday and should go through the curriculum and start working on the assignments before class on Thursday. This way students are already familiar with the concepts before coming to class.
