We challenge our graduates to a 6-weeks final project sprint, where
they build open source projects with a social impact. During the
final project spring, the students get acquainted with new skills,
discover new ways to collaborate, processes and learn about the
industry best practices that are expected in the local labor market.

Towards a job: Mentorship Program
Career guidance is an essential part of our program, as the real
challenge for our graduates is finding an internship or job as a
junior web developer.
Thanks to our voluntary mentors, we offer our students a career
guiding journey when graduating from our program. Each student has
its own mentor, who helps with updating their CV and LinkedIn
profile, writing a motivation letter, doing a mock interview, and
leading them through the job-hunting jungle in the IT sector
BECOME A MENTOR
Career Skills Sessions
On Sunday mornings, before class starts, we regularly organize Career Skills Sessions. These are inspirational sessions by experts, within and outside the IT and HR sector, to share their knowledge with our community. It can be about how to organize a healthy work environment, it may as well be about how to constantly keep updated as a junior web developer. In other words, highly valuable mornings!
