Holberton School

Holberton School is a software engineering school with campuses on 4 continents and over 20 countries that trains individuals to become Full Stack Software Engineers. All schools offer the 36-week Foundations of Computer Science program, with short- and long-term specialization courses in Fullstack Web Development, Machine Learning, AR/VR and Low Level. The school's mission is to train the next generation of software developers through 100% hands-on learning. 

The curriculum adopts a project-based, peer-learning approach. As an alternative to college and in lieu of formal classes, students solve increasingly complicated programming challenges with minimal instruction. Students will develop resourcefulness as they search for the tools they need to solve these challenges while working with their peers. Rather than focusing on tools and programming languages, students at Holberton have a framework that teaches them the mindset of "learn to learn" and develop problem-solving skills. Throughout the course of the program, students work on industry-level projects and build their own applications. Holberton School mentors ensure that the Holberton curriculum stays up to date. Holberton mentors work for rising startups and top-tier Silicon Valley companies such as Google, Apple, LinkedIn, Tesla and Airbnb.

No programming experience is required. Admission to Holberton School is based only on talent and motivation, with no consideration given to gender, nationality, ethnicity, age or social status.
