Coding Dojo
Transform lives through programming literacy. A 14 weeks full technology stack coding program.
To accomplish this, we developed a proven solution that equips low- and middle-earning individuals with the hard-skills needed to get a high-paying job in an industry growing at two times the national average. The majority of Coding Dojo applicants make less than $50,000 per year, and upon graduation the average starting salary is $72,486. Through years of refinement, we are the only coding bootcamp in the world that teaches three full technology stacks in 14 weeks. This is an important differentiator since it significantly opens up the type of roles (back-end, front-end, full-stack, mobile development) that our alumni can pursue after successful completion of the program. By learning multiple stacks they also “learn how to learn” and can easily pick up new technologies that don’t even exist today -- truly arming them for opportunities of the future.
