Let's answer some frequently asked questions we get from students just like you!
We offer both full-time and part-time options bootcamps.
The full-time, immersive program runs Monday – Friday for 14 weeks. Your days will run from 9 a.m. – 4:30 p.m. and will include lectures, working sessions, workshops and breakout group work. Some afternoons we’ll offer the option to for career talks after hours and mentoring opportunities.
The part-time program is 30 weeks long and includes a mix of self-study, small-group programming projects and lecture from expert instructors.
Typically, we have around 15-18 students per class. With additional instructors on staff, we have a ratio of 1 instructor to 12 students which means a lot of personal attention.
Coding bootcamps are a unique form of education, and there’s a reason that we call them “bootcamps”: they’re intense periods of hard work designed to yield breakthrough progress and big payoffs on the other side. To be successful you have to be focused and dedicated. We ask that all applicants for Tech Elevator’s full-time program be prepared to either take time off or step away fully from their jobs. Alternatively, we also offer a Part-Time Program that allows for students to learn at a more flexible pace.
For many it’s not hard to say goodbye to their current, unfulfilling job knowing that Tech Elevator will be their onramp to a new, satisfying career. If you love your company (but maybe not your role), consider talking to your employer about the program and how it can enhance your skill set for the job, or help them in other areas. Rather than lose you completely they may be willing to support you, sometimes with tuition support, sometimes with a leave of absence. It never hurts to ask!
No, you don’t! But it doesn’t hurt if you’ve made some strides toward learning the craft on your own. A lot of our incoming students start learning online through free resources before the start of their program. But what we really care about is your natural aptitude, because when you have all the right raw materials, you’ll make a great programmer. During the application process, you’ll take the Criteria Cognitive Aptitude Test, also referred to as the CCAT. It will test your ability to problem-solve and think critically, which are important foundations for learning software development. Read through our blog post on how to prepare for the test.
Every student who enrolls will need to ensure they have access to a laptop and internet for the duration of the program.
The bootcamp tuition is $16,500.
You have a few payment options including credit card and ACH banking information. Some students save up and pay all in one sum, while others break out payments. We’re happy to work with you on payment options that work for you.
