Adalab is a 12-week coding bootcamp for women in front-end programming located in Madrid, Spain. The program teaches women coding tools like HTML5, CSS3, Flexbox, JavaScript, Git, React, Trello, GitHub, VS Code, Gulp, Terminal Linter, and Zeplin. Adalab’s goal is to increase the amount of women in the male-dominated field of computer programming, by helping students land jobs as programmers. The course is set up to resemble a real work situation so students can get a glimpse into a career in programming. Attendance to class is mandatory and students are expected to spend an additional 4 hours studying on their own each day. 

To apply to Adalab, students must be women between the ages of 18 and 37. Applicants must have graduated from high school, be unemployed or job insecure, and have a Spanish work permit. Students must be available to start working as a programmer as soon as they finish the 12-week course. Students who are full-time working are not permitted to join the intensive program.

Adalab aims to help every student come out of the program with a job in programming. During the course, mentorship, networking, an employment exchange, and online training are provided to help support post-program employment. Adalab collaborates with companies and has created a corporate volunteer program that allows students to meet with employees from the partnered companies.
