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.
