_nology is a global tech training and talent provider offering a 12-week, full-time, online Cloud Engineer. The course covers HTML, CSS, JavaScript, TDD, Google Cloud, Docker & Kubernetes, Terraform, Ansible, and Networking. _nology aims to tackle the skills shortage and lack of diversity within the tech sector by breaking down the barriers to entry and making space for everyone, regardless of their background.
No previous coding experience is required to apply for the Software Developer Training Course. _nology assesses applicants based on their potential, not whether they have experience in tech. Applicants should be passionate about technology, creative problem-solvers, self-starters, hardworking, and ready to learn.
Upon successful completion of the training cohort, _nologists receive a conditional job placement. Graduates are deployed as Junior Cloud Engineers or a Junior Software Developers (dependent on the training cohort joined) on an 18-month placement with one of _nology’s UK clients in an office-based, hybrid, or remote role. The starting salary is £26,000 with pay rises every 6 months. During this 18-month client placement, _nologists gain practical experience working on a variety of exciting projects as part of a real tech team. The Talent Team will be on hand throughout the placement to support and provide further coaching, with check-ins at week 1 and week 2, and monthly thereafter.
Having done this course after completing a 3 year Computer Science degree it's interesting to see the differences.
Pros:
- This course teaches right from the beginning, no previous experience necessary
- You will come out of this course with a greater knowledge (within the specific areas you study) than a Computer Science graduate (again, just those areas not overall)
- In a degree you would have a couple of hours a week contact time for each module ...
Having done this course after completing a 3 year Computer Science degree it's interesting to see the differences.
Pros:
- This course teaches right from the beginning, no previous experience necessary
- You will come out of this course with a greater knowledge (within the specific areas you study) than a Computer Science graduate (again, just those areas not overall)
- In a degree you would have a couple of hours a week contact time for each module so the content you learn is limited, here you'll be working 9-5 on it
- You will get to work on real world projects that have an impact on the clients who pitch them
- You chose the projects you work on so you're in control and can have a greater sense of pride of what you achieve
- Nology doesn't teach software, they create developers. There's a big difference between the two, you learn in a simulated work environment and they focus on the useful skills you need to easily join a team.
Cons:
- This is a relatively new course so of course there is some risk and hesitation, I hope this review has put that (to some extent) to rest
- When I attended there was just the one trainer and a lot of work for them to do to manage the course overall (remember this is very different to a traditional educaitonal course) with that in mind there was plenty of support for the group but not as much 1-1 as you might hope for, so code reviews weren't frequent. Had this been more often I would have gotten more from it. Keep in mind this was the first time the course was run and credit to them they did a fantastic job, I'm sure this isn't a problem you would face.
- The office (In Bristol incase Nology grows into more than one) is primarily a recruitment office. There is a lot of ambient noise which can be a real pain.
To summarise:
- If you decide to give it a go you'll have an amazing time.
- The team are very driven towards developing you and they do genuinely care about your success.
- You will meet like minded young people interested in pursuing a career in tech.
- You don't need any prior experience.
- You will get out of it what you put into it. Be aware that this will push you and you'll have to work for it (if it were easy everyone would do it).
