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.

Outstanding!!!
Well done to Carmel on the training. I have relearned a lot and I will definitely use school of IT again in the future. I will also recommend everyone to use them. I had done MS Projects Advanced in 2013 and I must say there are a few stuff that had changed.
Thank You - Gerrit VisserStudent • Programming courses • Cape TownFeb 10, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Quick detailed c++ course
School of IT to provide structure to your learning schedule.
I'd be lying if i told you teaching yourself is a cheaper alternative than taking a course, because if money is time you'd be waisting alot of it on just the basics alone.
Being able to go through the beginner's course in 2weeks saves alot of time whilst ensuring you understand all the important information.

Effective, Helpful, Transformative, Enjoyable

I was able to learn HTML, JavaScript, CSS etc. Before I registered I was doing some research and was thinking of returning to university and doing a 4 year course. I stumbled upon school of IT offering lessons online. I read reviews and and was overall impressed but not yet settled. I then emailed to ask to speak to any admin faculty member about the respective course catalog and within 20 minutes received a phone call by a friendly and helpful person who was able to give me the necessary guidance I needed to make an informed decision about which course to take.
The one-to-one mentor was phenomenal in the sense of teaching style. He was very accommodative always asking how he could improve for the next lesson. He was organised and was readily available when I asked questions in and outside of class-time. The team was always proactive, resources was made readily available with speed and they accommodated me according to when I was available as I am a fulltime worker. I don't think I would have been happier anywhere else. This was the best experience I've had at any institution. - Catherine RyanStudent • Programming courses • OnlineJan 31, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A

The experience was amazing
The course was well structured and practical. Every class was informative and engaging. The lecturer taught the course very well. After every session there was a practical homework to help me understand the module better. I had an amazing experience all thanks to School of IT and the lecturer Mr. James Mazivise. - ChristofStudent • AutoCad course • Cape TownDec 21, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
AutoCad Level 1 course completed from School of IT
The course was completed online with a lecturer. The material presented was presented in a competent and easy to follow manner. As it was a entry level course (Level 1), only basic principles were covered, e.g. 2D drawings, line style, document setup. Overall a good experience. - Wesley du PlessisGraduate • Full Stack Software Development course • OnlineDec 16, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Hands-on One-on-one guidance
School of IT gives a very personal experience for learners. You're assigned a personal lecturer to guide you. The ability to ask questions as you go, extra assistance for a lot of the configuration stuff that can sometimes be glossed over, and access to great digital materials for individual study make it very easy to follow. As someone who has tried the University route in the past, I can definitely recommend a bootcamp with School of IT. - Ditshaba NapeGraduate • Software Engineering course • OnlineDec 14, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
A good and educational experience
My time with the school of it Lecturer was great he had made sure my understanding of my work was solid while checking to make sure I wasn't falling into bad habits for coding and. Doing etiquette. - Andre SchutteStudent • Software Development course • OnlineNov 24, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Software Development
This course was excellent and I definitely learned a lot and gained a lot of knowledge. My lecturer described everything well in simple terms for me to understand because I am still a beginner programmer. I feel more confident about programming after I did this course and if i could rate it out of 10 I would give it a 10 out of 10. - Kario AbrahamsStudent • Software Engineering course • OnlineNov 11, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
