Sputnik

Sputnik offers immersive tech bootcamps in UX design and software development, in central London, UK. The 1-year UX Mastery course covers UX principles, user research, and analysis frameworks. The 8-month Development Mastery course covers coding languages, product creation, strategy and teamwork. Through the classes, students are trained to learn current methods and tools, and how to adapt to ever-changing technology. Sputnik was founded to solve the disconnect between the passive teaching of traditional schools and the active learning that happens in the world of work. Their mission is not just creating top-end UX and software professionals but helping students build confidence and communication skills.

The Sputnik UX program and the software development program are for career switchers and individuals with no prior knowledge or experience in the tech industry. Applicants are required to fill out an online form, after which a Sputnik staff member will reach out. Applicants will then meet with an advisor for an assessment and interview. After approval, they begin the program.

Sputnik requires only a small deposit when students enroll. Payment for the program is only required once students begin their career in the tech industry. Employment is guaranteed for program graduates. To ensure students master UX skills or software skills, Sputnik provides an immersive training that includes working on real projects sourced from real companies. This process offers a real-world technology environment and pushes student’s performance as they learn from, and work alongside, top industry professionals. Students will graduate with a portfolio of completed work and great connections in the industry.
