Makers Academy

Earn £30k after 12 weeks. Looking for the fast and flexible route into software engineering? We run a new course every 4 weeks for those looking to learn to code and change their life now.

Together with job support from our career coaches and connections to leading tech companies provided by our Partnerships team, we’ll help you find a job you love.

Makers Apprenticeships

Earn £25k from day one. Our apprenticeships are the equivalent of foundation software engineering degrees. We don’t just teach you how to code. We teach you to think like problem-solvers, and give you the coding tools to construct solutions to almost any problem. You don’t need a maths degree, we don’t care about A-levels, you don’t need to have built your first computer before you could walk.
