About
About
School16 is a 16-week, live online Technology Career Acceleration bootcamp. In the first 8 weeks of the bootcamp, students learn foundational tech skills, and then select an Advanced Learning Concentration (ALC) program for the next 8 weeks. In the ALC portion of the bootcamp, students focus solely on building skills and a portfolio in one of our four core subject matter offerings: Sales and Customer Success, Digital Marketing, Project Management and Operations, or Product Management.
For most School16 students, the initial 8-week foundations program will be a prerequisite to placing into the ALC portion of the bootcamp, unless an applicant can demonstrate to the School16 admissions team some background/familiarity with tech as a career. In those cases, students may be placed directly into an Advanced Learning Concentration of their choice.
School16 offers partial, need-based scholarships of 10-50% toward tuition, with flexible installment payment options.

- Interactive and engaging program!- 11/20/2021Jin Lee • Student • Course: Technology Career Accelerator • Campus: Online • Verified via LinkedInThrough School16, I learned that there were so many non-coding jobs available at tech companies. Coming from a non-tech background, I also learned new terms and tools that tech companies use. I got an intro of what the 4 major business roles do - marketing, sales, operations, and product management. I appreciated the assignments and in-class break-out sessions because those helped me put into practice what we learned during each session. The career-oriented assignments, such as pre-program analysis and the list of 10's, got me out of my comfort zone and pushed me to think strategically about my career goals and the target companies that I want to work for in the future.

- Reason for my confidence boost- 5/13/2022Daihany Mejia • Course: Technology Career Accelerator • Campus: OnlineThe instructors, students, and career coaches have all helped me in my journey. So many tips not even college provided. I am forever grateful!
- School16- 4/21/2022Leslie • Student • Course: Technology Career Accelerator • Campus: OnlineI had a great experience with School16. The instructors, fellow students, and advisors alone made it well worth it. Everyone is an industry expert and can provide real-world scenarios and are always willing to help. It is hard to find this sort of guidance and advice outside of a traditional college. You get what you put in. Be present, attentive, ask questions, utilize office hours (I wish I utilized office hours more) and it will all be well worth it. The classes are not too large nor too small and the instructors keep you engaged.
- Design your future- 2/4/2022Jolie RadunichAs a college student facing the impending insecurity and anxiety that comes with finding their first full-time job, School16 empowered me with language and resources to begin the application process. With a clear idea of how to translate my writing skills and education interests into tech positions, I’ve abandoned the misconception that all tech jobs equal coding. The mixture of lectures, group activities, and take-home assignments kept the program engaging and I felt like I was working towards achieving one of my most important goals, creating my own success. School16 is made up of a professional team with the truest of motivations to help students - in different life stages, time zones, and backgrounds - succeed.
- Tech Program- 12/23/2021Adriana Brown • Student • Course: Technology Career Accelerator • Campus: OnlineFirstly, I would like to say this program was amazingly executed, and I would recommend anyone that is interested in switching careers to give it a shot. For the past 3 years I was employed in the Customer Service Industry and felt for a change in career. As someone that doesn’t have a degree this program was a perfect fit and the quality of information was exceeded my expectations for sure, you will have support on your journey. The instructors were amazing and made sure that you are heard and seen. 10/10 recommendation! I just wish it was a bit longer than 8 weeks 😊
- Most Chill- 12/23/2021Anne-Marcelle • Career Coach • Graduate • Course: Technology Career Accelerator • Campus: OnlineBefore school16, I was looking for ways to create tangible results for UX Research in form of projects. I also wanted to partner with people to create those projects. Being at School16 allowed me to do exactly that. The program had by the most diverse crew I had ever seen in Bootcamp and that's saying something because I've participated in a few, from coding Bootcamp to non-coding, college-alternative programs. I remember thinking on the call, "now this is what the tech industry ought to look like!" I love that the curriculum helped me understand the various moving pieces of a start-up -- operations, sales, customer service, marketing, product management with some design thinking attached. The group projects allowed me to get to know my peers and their strengths, and in the end, I found a co-founder with whom I am going to create a company! I would recommend School16 to those looking to break into tech with purpose and passion.
- Tech is Here: Great Experience!- 11/20/2021Heaibert Diamond • Licensing Associate • Graduate • Course: Technology Career Accelerator • Campus: OnlineSchool16 is a great short program that allows you to get your feet wet in several different fields that are growing rapidly right now. Technology is here and not goin anywhere. Instructors provide you with in-depth information within the sectors of product management, sales, marketing and operations. These sectors are significant in the development of any company. The information is valuable and is in conjunction with any field from medical, business, law, entertainment, sports, finance and etc. Great investment for the knowledge and resources given. I recommend given it a try and using every opportunity to soak in the information, complete the tasks and for those looking to secure a job, use the tips given to speak update resumes, LinkedIn and ways to contact recruiters and catch their eyes.
- Technology Business Strategy and Development- 11/16/2021Amanda Arroyo Cabezas • Program Manager at Nosotras Women Connecting • Student • Course: Technology Career Accelerator • Campus: OnlineA couple of months ago, I got to know about School16's Technology Career Acceleration Program, and it was wonderful. It has been the most challenging process, academically speaking, that I took this year. Without a doubt, it is the best way to understand the world of technology and how to enter.
My base career is communication and I have always worked on the social sciences side, so having the opportunity to go through an 8-week process to learn more about sales, marketing (From a Tech point of view), operations and the product was amazing. In addition, during this process, they provide 1: 1 mentorship for professional growth, the instructors are from magnificent organizations and the diversity that exists in the group is incredible to be able to grow.
