Overview
“Learn by doing” is the best way to describe
Ironhack’s educational methodology. We aim to
have our learning experiences translate into real-
life experiences. One way we deliver this idea is
through creating learning activities and projects
that require on-the-job skills. Furthermore, we
challenge students to be problem-solvers,
collaborators, and initiators. Ironhackers leave
bootcamps experienced. Period.
