Tech Elevator offers both full-time and part-time coding bootcamps that prepare students for a career as a software developer, starting with an Aptitude Test. Throughout the bootcamp, students learn Java, HTML, CSS, SQL, API, and JavaScript. The full-time bootcamp runs for 14 weeks, Monday through Friday, 9-4:30 pm, and the part-time bootcamp runs for 30-weeks with a mix of independent study, live lectures and small-group programming. Both programs have a low student-to-instructor ratio to ensure the best supportive environment for participants. Tech Elevator’s instruction is delivered in-person at campuses located in Cincinnati, Cleveland, Columbus and Pittsburgh. Tech Elevator offers students beyond its core markets, and throughout the U.S., class options through its National Live Remote program.
Tech Elevator’s career-readiness Pathway Program is responsible for high placement outcomes and includes personalized coaching sessions, interview practice, 12 months of placement support post-graduation, and alumni and mentor networking. Tech Elevator also offers its students and alumni direct connections to employers through employer showcases and interviewing events.
I quit my high school teaching job of nine years at the end of last school year to pursue a career in technology. I was enrolled at Ohio State part-time but was not looking forward to a 2+ year process. My mother heard the Tech Elevator ad on the radio and encouraged me to apply. They had run several cohorts in Cleveland but this was the first one in Columbus. I checked them out online and everything seemed legit - lots of positive reviews and students who landed real jobs.

I quit my high school teaching job of nine years at the end of last school year to pursue a career in technology. I was enrolled at Ohio State part-time but was not looking forward to a 2+ year process. My mother heard the Tech Elevator ad on the radio and encouraged me to apply. They had run several cohorts in Cleveland but this was the first one in Columbus. I checked them out online and everything seemed legit - lots of positive reviews and students who landed real jobs. I completed the online assessment and was invited in for an interview and second assessment. I liked the staff members I met during the interview (on a Thursday), and was excited to find out I was accepted the following Tuesday.
The program is intense. I have multiple graduate-level degrees and this was as challenging if not more than all of those programs (including law school). The good news is that it's over quickly. The bad news is that it's over quickly. I loved everyone I met there - both staffers and fellow students, and once we got into the groove and got to know each other the 14 weeks flew by. The Java instructor, Casey Borders, is amazing. Patient and knowledgeable. A true coding wizard! You will be there from 9-4:30 most days. If you're like me and aren't always the best about getting things done at home, you should probably stay until you get all of your homework finished. Try not to fall behind as things can pile on quickly. The reading may not seem as exciting as the coding but it will help you be a better programmer and pick up the language and vocabulary to be an effective communicator.
Around week 10 is the Matchmaking Event and this is where the job-hunting really picked up for me. Before the event, we worked on our resumes, LinkedIn profiles, and interviewing skills through the Pathways component of the program. Each student has 8-10 interviews back-to-back. I was so nervous, but it was so helpful to be forced to get over the nervousness. After the event, I received 5ish follow-ups from employers who attended and tons of promising feedback. One of my second interviews was about 10-days after the event and I received a job offer about 3-4 days after that (a full 2 weeks before graduation). It is at a large national bank and the pay was at the top end of my anticipated salary range. Today was my first day of work and I'm excited for everything in store for the future. And so thankful to Tech Elevator for their expertise and assistance getting my foot in the door.
