One Badge at a Time
ONE BADGE AT A TIME
Step up to a Coding Career
Earn Coding Bootcamp Badges to learn software development one skillset at a time
Businesses need software developers to achieve their technology goals. There aren’t enough skilled coders to fill all coding jobs. This is why coding bootcamps are essential to our economy. They help you quickly gain IT skills that businesses demand. Coding bootcamps put you on a fast track to a programming career. By providing immersive training on a compressed schedule, you can speed your way to project-ready skills. But not everyone can reserve three months for nonstop training. That’s why we offer Coding Bootcamp Badges, powered by The Software Guild. We help you master .NET/C# or Java one skillset at a time.
Learn on your terms
Our Coding Bootcamp Badges offer an affordable, flexible way to learn software development.
● Learn in stages
Begin with the Level 1 badge to learn programming basics in .NET/C# or Java. After earning your first badge, you’ll have a new credential for your resume and LinkedIn profile. But don’t stop there. Earn all four badges to develop full-stack skills that can launch your coding career.
● Learn when you want
You can obtain every Coding Bootcamp Badge in as fast as 10 months or take a brief break between badges. This flexible schedule helps you keep your job while you learn to code.
● Learn where you want
Training takes place online, giving you freedom to learn wherever you choose. Collaborate with instructors and classmates from home, school or anywhere you have internet access.
Pay as you go
In our budget-friendly program, we divide tuition into four stages. Pay smaller fees one badge at a time, with the option to pause the program between badges. You can earn the next badge — and develop your next set of skills — when you’re ready.
Earn discounts along the way
Take the budget-friendly route to a coding career. For each badge you earn, we provide a helpful discount for your next badge. For example, after you earn a Server-Side Web Development badge, you will qualify for $500 off a Full-Stack Development badge. Discounts total up to $1,000 as you pursue all four badges!
