The Tech Academy is a trade school headquartered in Portland, Oregon that offers full-time and part-time bootcamps online and in-person at their Portland campus.The Tech Academy offers bootcamps in computer programming, website development, cybersecurity, game development, mobile development, data science, and front-end development. The immersive experience aims to create well-rounded technology professionals, and also gives students the option to take the course at their own pace. There are also no set starts dates or rigid scheduling. Students can enroll at any time, study from home, and choose whatever study schedule they would like.
The Tech Academy’s bootcamps cover topics including computer science fundamentals, programming basics, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, SQL, C#, Python, Bootstrap, jQuery, React.js, project management, Agile, Scrum, MVC, version control, Java, and more. Each bootcamp also includes a Live Project, where students gain real-life experience to add to their resume as well as job placement assistance.
None of The Tech Academy's bootcamps require any tech background or experience. To apply, applicants need to take an IQ test with logic-based questions (to ensure applicants can read, write and perform basic math), followed by an admissions interview.
The final part of every The Tech Academy bootcamp is the Job Placement Course which covers interviewing skills, resume writing, where to find tech jobs, and gives students access to job placement staff who assist students in landing technical positions.
I am very grateful to the Tech Academy. My life is complete. I was trying to find what I wanted to
do with my life. I always enjoyed learning new things. I get that with programming. There's
always something new. It's just mindblowing. My brain feels alive solving problems and applying
my knowledge. It's just continuous growth in the world of programming. There was a time in my
life when everything seemed familiar from Biology to TV shows. There was...
I am very grateful to the Tech Academy. My life is complete. I was trying to find what I wanted to
do with my life. I always enjoyed learning new things. I get that with programming. There's
always something new. It's just mindblowing. My brain feels alive solving problems and applying
my knowledge. It's just continuous growth in the world of programming. There was a time in my
life when everything seemed familiar from Biology to TV shows. There was no more novelty.
With programming, that sense of newness and curiosity came back. I used to just watch movies
and surf the internet when using a laptop. Now, the possibilities are endless. You can do robotics,
statistics, art, etc.
Before the Tech Academy, I was looking for answers like how does a computer really work. The
answer I got from Google was lacking for me. The Computer Basics Course opened up a whole
new world for me. I think you can't find everything on the internet. Some of it is through people's
experience. Erik Gross clearly has experienced how to teach what programmers should know.
Going through the course will certainly prepare anyone for a career in programming. I would hire
anyone who graduates from the Tech Academy. I know they have put in the time and the repetition
to be able to do the job.
I am really glad I took the leap. I could still be stuck in the past and not be part of the future.
Programming is the future. Maybe we're heading towards a world like Star Wars where most of the
jobs are “Luke Skywalker” jobs, you can either fix machines or program them. To any prospect
who's reading this, be part of the future, enroll at The Tech Academy. Thank you.
