Tech training for parents and carers in London
We’re working hard to understand the barriers to participating in our boot-camps faced by parents and carers and we’re excited to be offering our first boot-camp designed specifically to support parents and carers later this year.
Launching on 26th September for London residents, our Cloud Practitioner boot-camp provides the ideal springboard for anyone looking to get into the tech industry.
Designed in collaboration with Amazon Web Services, the Cloud boot-camp is a free, part-time, 16-week programme that will teach you the industry skills required and then connect you to hiring employers for job interviews.
This part-time skills boot-camp is designed to fit around your life and commitments without the need for lots of extra independent study – for this reason, we enthusiastically encourage parents and people with dependants to apply.
