What does UpNCoding do?

UpNCoding provides a 12-week course designed to prepare students for the modern software engineering workplace; with the goal of providing opportunities across multiple industries and varying sized companies. 

The class meets 3 times per week for 3-hour sessions, led by 1-2 industry experienced instructors.  The course introduces software engineering principles through instruction led projects and industry standard tools that students will interact with in their future technology careers.  While other institutions focus on a front-end app development, UpNCoding is providing a more well-rounded full-stack education that better addresses the growing needs of the software engineering industry. 

As part of completion of the course, students prepare for modern software interview processes and are educated on the various potential entry-level positions from Full-Stack Engineer to Machine Learning Engineer.  UpNCoding is in the process of creating a partner network where students would be able to interview for open positions immediately after completion of the course.
 
Total Cost: $12,500 including a computer that students keep.
