Why our training format is fast and effective

Plus
02

The concept of micro learning

Micro Learning offers the opportunity to learn large amounts of information in small, discrete elements. This format makes it easy to immerse yourself in complex topics without consuming a lot of energy and time: watching a five-minute training video does not require long periods of concentration and engages the individual most effectively.
02

95% of training time is practical

To become a professional you need a theoretical basis, which we give in the first 2 weeks, and a maximum of practice. At our academy you will code every day from week 2 on wards and see the first results.
03

Scrum methodology

The flexible Scrum methodology is designed for rapid development and delivery of complex, groundbreaking IT products.
Scrum is essential for work planning, systematic workflow organisation, responsibility development and team self-organisation. The methodology allows for easy adaptation to the changing environment and continuous learning.
