Frequently asked questions

Questions people actually ask

Is there a certificate?

No certificate is issued for time served. You finish with a portfolio of four real projects, at least two for actual clients sourced through the programme, plus a documented reference.

How is progress assessed?

Every module ends in a real deliverable, assessed against a published rubric by a practitioner. Progression requires demonstrated competence rather than attendance.

What is free?

A skills assessment and the first project, completed and assessed by a real practitioner with written feedback.

What if this work is not right for me?

The assessment gives an honest evaluation of whether you can do this work, including when the answer is that it is not for you.

What does it cost?

2,400 dollars for a twelve-week cohort, or 290 dollars a month over twelve months.

Is there an income share option?

Yes, for those who qualify. It is capped at a multiple, and the cap and terms are published plainly.

Does it help with finding work?

Yes. Job search support is structural: portfolio review, outreach coaching and introductions to hiring partners.

Why should I trust the skill payback calculator?

The income you are aiming for is your own estimate, and nothing here predicts it. The rest is arithmetic on the cost and time you enter.
