Maya Tudor

Global Apprenticeships Specialist

“Code Institute has been supporting our apprenticeship programs to

develop new coders and have been a great partner and a
particularly good source of a more diverse technical talent pool.”

Alicja Malinowska

Software Apprentice Code Institute Graduate

“I recommend this course to everyone who would like to make their

first step towards a career in programming. My background is
psychology, and I had nothing to do with coding, or anything
technical for that matter, before I started the Full-Stack Software
Developer course part-time in August 2019. In April 2020, I was offered
a 2-year apprenticeship at one of the tech giants! I knew about this
opportunity from Jane, the Director of Employer Engagement at Code
Institute. If it was not for her, I probably would not feel confident
enough to even apply.”

Liga Baikova

Software Apprentice Code Institute Graduate

“I recently moved to the Netherlands for the job that I got less than
three weeks ago as a technical support engineer for Adyen. The
course has so much career support. I went to all of the webinars, and
they were so helpful – that’s where I met my current employers. I
would recommend Code Institute’s course – it’s exactly what I wanted
and needed.”

Oliver Perry

Associate Director Code Institute Graduate

“Our team is constantly looking for Full-Stack Developers with a knowledge

of e-Commerce, Advanced Front-End, and Predictive Analytics. These are
seriously in-demand skills right now. Employers are crying out for these
skills. Code Institute’s curriculum is the most advanced we've seen - giving
their students not only the tools to change their career but also to excel
and progress quickly in their chosen field.”

“Nothing would ever make me prouder of myself for putting in the

work every day, and how far I have come since I started this diploma
last September. Thank you to Code Institute for their fantastic course,
the mentors, tutors, community and all staff involved.”

Shubham
Code Institute Graduate 2023

“When I started this course, so many people asked me, 'Why are you
doing it now? Because AI is coming, you have ChatGPT, and
everything is perfect. You don't need coders'. But to be truthful, if there
are no coders, there's no ChatGPT. The basic for each and every job is
what is being taught in the Code Institute, which is amazing.”

Ulrike

Code Institute Graduate

Code Institute Graduate 2023

“I’m still a little bit new to the whole world of machine learning and AI, and
the Predictive Analytics specialism, as well as the foundations and machine
learning, Python, and so on. All those important technologies, it’s a really
good foundation. It’s a starting point.”

demand subjects. We update content regularly.
