School of IT
School of IT offers both online and in person bootcamps from its campuses in Cape Town and Somerset West, South Africa. Bootcamps include Full Stack Software Development, Mobile App Development, Digital Marketing, CyberSecurity, and Data Science. Students may choose to complete the bootcamps in 12-weeks (full time) or 24-weeks (part time). All bootcamps come with courseware, including ebooks, certain software programs, and additional resources.
No prior coding or educational experience is required. Anyone with a passion for IT is welcome to apply. The bootcamps are also open to current high school students. Start times are flexible, and students may begin courses as soon as they have registered. Students can choose the days and times they want to complete coursework and interact with their mentor.
All School of IT bootcamp students will be assigned a personal mentor with whom they will work 1:1 throughout the duration of the program. Mentors will teach via interactive software and will be able to interact with students’ computer screens and assist with coding and software challenges as though they were in the same room with the student.
School of IT offers job placement assistance for all bootcamps that are between 12 and 24 weeks long. School of IT recommends that students pass international qualification exams before applying for employment.
Payment plans allow bootcamp students the option to pay in 20 hour intervals rather than paying the full cost of tuition upfront. School of IT graduates will receive a certificate of achievement upon bootcamp completion. Students may choose to take internationally recognized Microsoft, Oracle, CompTia++, and/or Adobe certification exams, but these are not required as part of the bootcamp.

Amazing experience, Just Fantastic
I recently completed an SQL course, and I can confidently say it was a fantastic experience.

The course was well-structured, starting with the basics of SQL and gradually moving into more advanced topics like joins, subqueries, and database normalization. Each module built on the previous one, making it easy to follow and absorb.What stood out the most was the hands-on approach—working on real-world queries and datasets helped me truly understand how SQL is used in practical scenarios. The instructor BRIGHT CHAVALALA explained concepts clearly and were always available to answer questions, which made the learning environment very supportive, he is truly a professionalBy the end of the course, I felt confident writing complex queries, analyzing data, and even optimizing database performance. It’s a skill I now use regularly, and it’s opened doors to new opportunities in my professional life.I’d highly recommend this course to anyone looking to build or strengthen their SQL skills. Whether you're a beginner or someone looking to polish your knowledge, this course delivers value every step of the way. - Christian BooysenStudent • Software Development course • OnlineVerified by LinkedInDec 29, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
The overall learning experience has been extremely rewarding for me.
This course took me on an exhilarating coding journey, where learning became a thrilling adventure through hands-on, real-world projects that made programming both engaging and enjoyable. Through this course i learned how to adequately program applications with the use of C#, SQL databases and ASP.NET Frameworks. - Tumelo MfihloStudent • OnlineVerified by LinkedInNov 18, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

And for those with busy schedules this course fits right in because I did mine while at work and few hours a day for a few weeks is definitely a small price to pay to be able to better yourself the only drawback I would say it the loadsheding issues that might postpone your learning time but if you can get over that then this course is definitely for you - Luthando MchunuGraduate • Cyber Security (Online) • OnlineVerified by LinkedInSep 06, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
