Technology Bootcamps for University Students and Graduates

Code + Design Bootcamp was a six-month program for university students and graduates to upskill with interdisciplinary coding, design, and leadership training.

Each Bootcamp began with a four-week intensive to cover a range of topics under the instruction of professionals from leading companies in Silicon Valley, recruited by Code.X for local partner PalTel Group Foundation. Students then finished the program by completing a Udacity Nanodegree in areas such as Android Development and Data Science.

The program ran three cohorts since 2017 and graduated 100 students in Android Development and Data Science tracks. The employment rate of graduates reached 100%, with a large number of graduates securing jobs working remotely with international companies including Google. In these cases, graduate salaries were 3 times that of local salaries in the same field.
