If you are looking to progress a career in computer programming or web development, then this training and placement programme is made for you?

Skills shortages in the IT sector are driving the need for qualified, entry-level career seekers and career changers.

All you need is a desire to work hard and invest some time and money in yourself to build the foundations for a new career.

We help you start your career journey in programming by firstly ensuring you have the necessary industry recognised certifications and skills required to build a career.

We ensure you market yourself properly through a structured career driven cv and LinkedIn profile highlighting your skills, any experience, and relevant transferable skills from other roles.

Finally, our tutors will help you create a credible portfolio to demonstrate your skills and abilities to potential new employers.

We have many years of experience in helping graduates find their first roles in top UK companies and organisations who need to employ entry-level qualified programming staff that can hit the ground running with up-to-date skills gained from this programme.

The programme is specifically designed for individuals with none or limited experience but a real desire to start a career. Therefore, please do not apply if you are already an experienced programmer.

Whether you are working full-time, part-time or are unemployed, this package has the flexibility to be completed at a pace that suits you and can be completed in as little as a few weeks or a few months (see steps 1 to 4 below). Study timings are approximate and assume you can study for a minimum 5 hours per week. *Training times will be reduced if you are able to invest more time each week.

Stage 1 – Learn HTML and CSS (*up to 12 weeks)

The first step is completing a selection of professional and industry-recognised courses. We have carefully selected these courses to give you the most out of both your learning and employment journey.

Once the HTML & CSS courses are complete, your trainer will move you forward to the next stage.

Your tutor will provide you with some exercises and guidelines to help you build your own personalised portfolio. Having a strong portfolio to which demonstrates and showcases your range of skills and ability is essential within a programming career.
