Proven training program

Our training program is designed to fit seamlessly into even the busiest of schedules, with a combination of weekly live sessions and self-learning tasks. We integrate learner autonomy with a supportive environment, to ensure that our students stay on track toward success.

We’ve placed hundreds of graduates in the world’s biggest tech companies, so we know exactly what you need to do to become the candidate every company wants to hire.

You will acquire hands-on experience that makes you job-ready, and you’ll graduate with an industry-relevant portfolio that will impress potential employers.

Learn from industry experts

Because you are learning from accomplished experts who work in the industry today and because our curriculum is constantly being updated in response to the latest trends and patterns in the workforce, our programs teach you what you really need to know to get a job in tech – and leave out what you don’t.

Online, flexible schedule

Our programs are online and designed to accommodate busy schedules, and even the occasional missed week. The programs are flexible, yet with our minimum 15 hours/week requirement, they are intensive enough to prepare students well for their new career and get them job-ready in a relatively short amount of time.

We offer extra help and private sessions with academic instructors for students who need a bit more support.

Live classes

Aside from self-paced learning, coding exercises or labs, quizzes, and projects, each program offers weekly live lectures with today’s experts. Live lectures allow students to learn interactively, ask questions in real time, and study with a real class. Live sessions are always recorded and available for those who prefer learning alone or are unable to attend the session live.

24/7 support

Masterschool is designed with layers of support so that you never feel alone or overwhelmed. Each program offers live sessions, study halls, and active chatrooms so that you are always able to ask academic questions in real time. Whether it’s your peers, instructors, or your Mentor, there is always someone to turn to for help.

1:1 mentoring

Throughout your time at Masterschool, you will be mentored by experienced industry experts, with regular 1:1 meetings. These industry professionals have years of experience and will be able to guide you both academically and professionally. During the Career Accelerator, you will share your interview experiences and get personalized feedback and tips from your mentor.

Mock interviews

As a candidate, you will be interviewing with both professionals who will evaluate your technical skills and HR personnel who will gauge your general fit for the company. We prepare you for both types of interviews with mock questions and interview simulations, so you feel comfortable and confident wowing them with your skills.

Career coaching and advice

FAQ: Career support

Will you help me find a job?

We do everything necessary to help you find a job. While we will help you find job opportunities and network, we will not place you in a job.

The career support includes workshops, personal mentorship, global hiring partners, which include the world’s best tech companies, and much more.

Even after you’re hired, we will continue to support you. If you need help with finding a new job, a salary negotiation, asking for a promotion or anything else, we are here to help you. Our ultimate goal is that you continue to succeed beyond your first job in tech, and we see ourselves as long term partners.

What if I don’t immediately want to start working after the program?

Our programs are designed for people who want to start looking for a new job immediately after they graduate. However, students who may need some more time after graduation before they start looking for a job, can reach out to our team. We will consider your unique situation and try to help.

How long does it usually take to find a job?

It depends on the determination and efforts each student dedicates to his or her job search, but most of our students generally secure jobs within weeks or months after they begin their job search. We will support you in your job search no matter how long it takes and are happy to assist you in the future if you are looking to change jobs.

In our experience, students who put their efforts in continuing to develop professionally during the Career Accelerator program tend to shine brighter during the job-hunting process.

How can you be so sure graduates will find a job?

We have already helped hundreds of talented, motivated graduates find new careers in leading tech companies all over the world. However, finding your first job in tech is hard, and you will need to work hard to make it happen. If you are ready to dedicate the time and effort and build a new career in tech, we truly believe Masterschool is the best way to get you there, and get you there quickly.

Although we cannot place you in a job ourselves, we’re dedicated to helping you succeed and finding a new role you love no matter how long it takes, as long as you are committed to putting in the hard work.

Choose a payment plan that suits your needs
Everyone has different financial obligations, and we believe they should never stand in the way of your career growth. Investing in your education is an important step to take, that is why we offer flexible payment options to finance your journey to your dream career. Whichever plan you choose, you will not be charged until 30 days after the program starts. You can always cancel within the first 30 days, no questions asked.

Pay once you’re hired

How it works: Pay tuition only after you finish the program and find a job. From that point forward, you’ll begin paying monthly, up to 36 installments, until your tuition is fully paid, or after 5 years have passed from when you have finished your core training – whichever comes first. No additional costs or hidden fees.

Tuition costs vary based on your country of residence:

United States: $20,000
Canada: $27,000
UK: £16,000
Europe: €20,000
Rest of the world: $20,000

The only upfront payment we do require is a one time nominal Commitment Fee of $250 USD/ $300 CAD/ £175 GBP/ €250 EUR. Based on our experience, students who make this pledge are more likely to face the challenges ahead, stay committed, graduate, and get hired.

Why choose deferred? A worry-free plan – your success is literally our success. You only start paying once you get hired.

 

Pay as you go

How it works: Pay tuition in 36 monthly installments and save 46% of the full amount. This plan allows you to divide tuition into smaller payments, which you will begin paying during your studies, once a month. No additional costs or hidden fees.

Why choose monthly? This is the most popular payment option our students choose – pay small monthly payments as you learn, and save 46% of tuition.

 

Pay early, pay less

How it works: Pay upfront in a one lump sum payment and save 56% of tuition. No additional costs or hidden fees.

Why choose upfront? This payment plan is the most cost-effective –  save 56% of tuition.

 

Whichever plan you choose, if you decide the program is not the right fit for you, you can cancel within the first 30 days and get a full refund – no questions asked.
