» The flexible route to job-ready

“A flexible bootcamp program for serious learners to become job-ready for a new career in tech, [...] so that even if ‘life happens’, you won't get left behind!”

“I created Kickstart Coding to have a unique approach: A boutique coding school that meets every student where they are at, with either a custom-paced subscription to boost their current career, or a flexible bootcamp program for serious learners to become job-ready for a new career in tech. Like the tech industry, coding bootcamps move at lightspeed, which means I see too many students getting left behind at other coding bootcamps. With a model centered around individual learning, we can make sure every student has the opportunity to learn, so that even if "life happens", you don't get left behind!”

    See you in class!

    Sincerely,
    Michael Bethencourt
    Founder, Lead Instructor
