CLASSES
FAQS
Yes, currently all of our classes take place once a week 18:30 to 20.30 GMT (or BST in Summer). We are working on providing more varied class timing options for our community.
Coding Kickstarter classes run for 8-weeks, with one 2-hour session per week. These introduction classes are best for those wanting to start out their coding journey and will give you a solid introduction to Python and Apps, Web Development or Data and SQL. We also offer JavaScript classes, but we would recommend familiarising yourself with HTML and CSS first through our Web Dev classes. These sessions are taught live by instructors and certified. Once completed, you will be eligible to apply for our CFGdegree programme.
If you have not heard back within 7 working days, you have been automatically added to a waiting list. We have a large number of applicants and only around 40-45 places per class. For each class, we can receive up to 3X times as many applications per place! If you are not accepted onto the course you initially applied for, we will place you on an alternative course within 6 months of your application. Each eligible student will be given a space, so there is no need to re-apply. If you are on the waiting list and a student drops out, you will be offered a place which is reserved for a set amount of time. You can then register to confirm your space in the classes.
To align with our CFGdegree pathways, from August 2024 we will no longer be running Kickstarter Classes in Web Dev.
We’ll still have regular free online Kickstarter Classes in Python, Javascript and Data & SQL. If you’d like an intro to Web Dev, then check out our Web Dev MOOCs!
