Approach
How we work
We are a Software Engineering Academy focused on quality tech education. Our aim is to transform tech education and make it into a more modular, customised and immersive experience guided by the needs and trends of the industry.
This program is created by tech experts for talented people who want to become software engineering leaders, whether they are experienced developers, complete beginners switching careers, or entrepreneurs seeking a better understanding of the field.
What makes this program different
See how our program stands unique in front of others:
1:5 Mentor / Student Ratio
Small groups guarantee personalized attention with abundant attention from the mentors and support that you need, when you need it.
Constant mentorship
We mentor each person individually, tailoring guidance based on their background and goals - no one-size-fits-all approach.
Real projects with real impact
The capstone group project is built with a stakeholder, a real company, giving true stength to your portfolio and experience.
Continuous industry alignment
Our syllabus is shaped by corporate trainings at top companies running in parallel and is constantly updated through this feedback loop.
Soft skills and job ready dynamics
Master skills and processes to become fully prepared for team collaboration and fast professional growth.
AI
AI and this Program
By 2030, nearly 50% of today’s work activities could be automated with current technology, according to a McKinsey Global Institute study.
Sounds scary? Don’t worry, AI is not here to replace you - it’s here to enhance your skills and create new opportunities. That is of course if you know how to leverage it.
Being a very junior "coder" will continue losing relevance. But being a software engineer capable of seeing the big picture, making complex decisions, working in a team, designing systems that integrate different technologies, leveraging AI tools to become an augmented software engineer - that is what will be in massive demand.
So what does this mean for you as an aspiring software engineer?
The industry is evolving, but engineers are more needed than ever. AI tools will complement your skills, not replace them.
Our program is designed to equip you for the future of software engineering.
We call it
future-proof.
When & Where
Barcelona or Remote
We offer both options - you can study in person on our campus in sunny Barcelona, Spain, or remotely from anywhere in the world within 6 hour time difference. All our classes follow a hybrid system, similarly to tech teams in companies, where nowadays some employees go to the office and others join from a remote location. If you prefer you can also join in-person for half of the program.
Both in-person and remote options have their pros and cons - in person you have more social contact (while grabbing a coffee with a teammate), while studying remotely you acquire very valuable skills and practice remote work, which is in high demand in tech companies today.
In terms of educational experience and benefits there is no difference as we make sure to provide the same exceptional experience to all our students. So the choice is yours!
Upcoming Start Dates
Syllabus
Program Structure
Our program is designed to be an immersive experience that allows you to focus on building the skills needed for a successful career as soon as possible.
The program is 12-weeks long, with a resting week after the 6th week (13 weeks in total). That adds up to 730 hours mixed between different activities (excluding the pre-course, that’s at your own pace).
It is a full-time and intensive schedule program - that is why we ask of you an investment of 3 month to completely focus on this path. We choose full-time over part-time option to conserve the maximum efficiency of the learning and make the most out of the learning curve.
We work with different time zones and coordinate team work with the same process as it is done in tech teams with overlap windows.

Pre-Course
Before you dive into the program itself we have a preparation course in store for you. The goal of this preparation course is for you to learn and understand well the fundamental logic of Javascript and go become more familiar with HTML and CSS. This way, once you are done with the preparation course you will be ready to start the program not from the ground up, but from a solid basis. In this process you will have instructor support and will be able to complete it on your own schedule. Depending on your dedication it is meant to take around 3 weeks to go over.
Includes: Exercise on JavaScript | Exercise on HTML and CSS | Reading Eloquent Javascript | Machine Setup
Weeks 1-6
Junior Part
During the Junior Part you will be learning the “building blocks” and the fundamentals of the different tools and technologies you will be using. Specifically you will learn about Computer Science Fundamentals (including data structures, algorithms, OOP, Testing), Front-end Fundamentals (including DOM, React, Webpack), Back-end Fundamentals (including Node, Express, Databases, Authentication), and Infrastructure and other more advanced topics.

If your objective for some reason is to study these we will give you the necessary resources to do it after the program and will make sure you become a pro in them, but our decision is not to go through them in the core part and focus on the most in-demand and future-forward technologies instead.
Schedule
Main Program Schedule:
Monday to Friday: 9h – 20h
Saturday: 9h – 16h
What will your day look like?
8:30 Breakfast
If you are on campus, get together with your peers, pour yourself some coffee or tea (you’ll need that energy boost), and share insights and challenges.
9:00 Coding Warm-Up
Time to start, the first task of the day is to complete a small exercise to get the energy flowing. These challenges increase in difficulty and are related to the topic of the day.
10:00 Lecture
A new lecture is available to you. Here we introduce a new topic or we go deeper in a concept thought the previous day. These lectures are recorded so you can access them whenever you want.
10:45 Live Coding or Q&A
Time to check in with a mentor. Let’s have a conversation about the lecture. Do you have any questions? We’ll sort them out. You don’t know where to start? Ok, let’s grab the computer and do a live coding session so you see how it’s done step by step.
12:00 Exercise
You’re ready to start the exercise. Read the instructions, grab your peer, and start following the steps. Sometimes the steps are not going to be obvious and you’ll have to think the solution through. Sometimes you’re going to get really stuck, don’t worry, it’s part of the process, but do give your instructor a shout for help. They are always available and ready to guide you through the exercise.
13:30 Lunch
Time for lunch, mind your resting time or socialize with your peers. Talk about your last trip or the TV show you watched last night... not everything is coding.
14:30 Exercise
Resume your work. Take advantage of these quiet afternoons to get some things done.
16:00 Break + Wisdom Pills
Why don’t you take a break? Grab a herbal tea and some fruit. When you come back there will be a wisdom pill on a relevant not-so-technical topic, or a small task to keep working on your essential soft skills.
16:30 Exercise
Keep working hard, you’re starting to get it! Maybe it will be cool to go help some of your peers, they're really struggling with this one.
18:00 Review with an instructor
Time to join your instructor again, let’s review the day. We have checked your progress and detected some common pitfalls so let’s go through them. Now you have more questions - it’s a good sign, that means you’re getting it!
19:00 Special event
Here the extra special stuff happens - alumni meet-ups, presentations of projects, visits from special guest, soft skill practice and more. Enjoy a more fun and relaxed setting, while still gaining critical skills for your future.
20:00 Day end
You did it, it was a great day!

Admission
Enrollment process
The admission process consists of 3 steps:
Intro Chat & Behavioral Interview
In order to get to know each other, you will be chatting with a member of our team in a video call. During these 30 minutes, we want to learn about your motivation, check your English level, and ensure that we are a good fit for each other. Also, this is a good time to solve any questions you may have. And if you’d like to speak with someone in particular from our team, just let us know!
Technical Interview
This step is a call with one of our instructors where you are required to solve a couple of entry-level exercises. Here we are going to evaluate your ability to solve logical problems. This step is vital for us to make sure that every student gets the most out of the course. Before this stage, we will provide learning materials and support if necessary.
Technical Challenge
In this final stage, you will have to complete a small programming project in one week. We're interested to see how you overcome challenges and find ways to persevere on your path. Before this stage, we will provide learning materials and support if necessary.
The best place to start is below. If you have additional questions - book a call with one of our mentors, and if you are ready to join us - apply. You can also attempt completing the admission process, use it as a learning experience with our guided materials (no commitment or payment), and make your final decision at the end of the process after seeing how we work and making sure it is the place for you - for that please book a call with us and we can take it from there.

After a little rest after my graduation I realized how much my life has changed in these 5 months. It’s not just a mentorship program (which itself is worth a lot). With a wide range of tech stack from the basics of programming to deployment. The instructors relay to you their wide knowledge and experience - hard skills and soft skills. The atmosphere is very important and here you are a part of family and you feel it. To sum it up, the course worth it all (both your money and your time) as you will get much more than you invested

Common Questions
Why do you teach JavaScript as main language?
We don't teach you JavaScript because it's the best language (if there's such a thing), but because it lets you go through the entire path of an application without changing the language. By becoming an expert on JS it becomes easier for you to jump to other languages, as you're going to look for advanced features in the language you learn next. For example, things like functional programming (that is shared with Python and some others) or pointers (that exist in almost all languages). Understanding them on JS gives you more flexibility as a developer. We know a lot of good companies that hire senior devs that don't know the language they work on, but instead have a great engineering mind and expertise in another language. Then they give them a tutorial on that language or framework (we are not exaggerating).

As a complete beginner, can I complete this 3-month program
Yes, around half of our students are people who never touched code before joining us. If you are starting from scratch the preparation process will be paramount to get you to a certain level prior to starting the program itself. Specifically there is the admission process, where we will be giving you materials and guiding you to complete the first exercises and challenges, and once you pass there is a 3-week preparation course guided by the mentors. This way you will be joining the program with strong fundamentals and build on top of them at the program in a good pace.

Is the program useful for an experienced developer?
We teach a lot of more experienced developers in our software engineering mentorship program, and we hear that the options for advanced education are quite limited, most schools focus mainly on beginners. We focus on the emerging industry needs, teach best practices, prioritise quality and work with each student individually, which is why around half of all our students are usually people with prior experience and a solid basis. We would recommend you to enrol in a program if you need a boost - whether it is technical (learning specific industry-relevant technologies, improving fluency, acquiring best practices, etc.) or non-technical (practicing team work dynamics, soft skills, network etc.). In that case, when you look at schools of course make sure that the quality of the curriculum, the services and most importantly the level of mentors is very strong. Otherwise it might be a good idea to join a company and follow the lead of a more senior engineer and grow within the company. Even if it is a smaller company it can be a stepping stone to the next bigger challenge.

Can I work while I do the program?
No, unfortunately that is not possible. It is fine if you work during preparation, but during the program itself we need your full focus. We work intensive hours, Mo-Fri from 9AM to 8PM and Sat from 9AM to 4PM. We understand it can be hard, but we require this time investment to guarantee the most effective learning curve - dedicating 12 weeks full-time to this is the only way to come out of this as an independent software engineering professional. The hours and the dynamics are the same whether you attend on-campus or remotely. It is an investment of 3 months, and it can be difficult to take the time off, but it is worth the professional stability you can gain in that time.
