Code for All_
Founded in Portugal in 2015, Code for All_ is a social impact startup that offers 14-week intensive and immersive Full Stack Programming Bootcamps. Students are guided through the course by a team of instructors who are graduates of the bootcamp. Code for All_ describes their teaching methods as "peculiar" and aimed at training students to write clean code.
Code for All_'s immersive programming bootcamps welcome beginners of all ages (over 18) and backgrounds (degree not needed) as long as they are willing to fully and passionately commit to becoming professional junior software developers within a short period of time. To apply to the bootcamps, prospective students must complete an online computer science 101 course, submit an online form, complete an online JavaScript tutorial, excel in a JavaScript code challenge, and attend online a workshop day that will be similar to the student experience during the bootcamp.
At each campus, different financing/sponsorship solutions are available to help candidates finance the bootcamp. Terms and conditions are listed on the Code for All_ website.
Code for All_ was formerly known as <Academia de Código_>.

Become a full stack
The best 14 weeks where you live and breathe code. They help you earn softskils and put you in touch with companies to find work. It was spectacular one of my best experiences.

Apply your new learned skills in small projects every week, and then learn to work as a team with bigger creative projects and a final 24 hour hackathon, which will be unforgettable.
Fourteen weeks that will change your life!

A Life-Changing Experience
For those interested in programming and looking for a change in their lives, this is the right opportunity. It will be tough and challenging, but hey, nothing that's easy in life would be really worth it in the end.
You'll learn more than you think, make friendships for life and get a new perspective about the future.
Even after the end of the bootcamp, the given support until you get a job is amazing. You'll never be alone. - Miguel PiedadeGraduate • 14-Week Intensive && Immersive Full-Stack Programming Bootcamp • PortoVerified by LinkedInAug 10, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Extremely rewarding for those willing to put in the work
The bootcamp provides an extremely well-thought out and focused curriculum, as well as a fostering community (staff and colleagues). The intense work rhythm, allied with the "learn to learn" mentality, was the perfect way to fully dive into the programming world, with the true reward being becoming confident to face any future challenges with positivity, resilience and resourcefulness. - Tomás TenreiroGraduate • 14-Week Intensive && Immersive Full-Stack Programming Bootcamp • LisbonVerified by LinkedInJul 21, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
A unique experience to learn coding while loving it, without any particular IT background
I've attended this bootcamp in the start of 2021 in the midst of the pandemic, which for me resulted in a full remote experience.
Even with that handicap I had a great experience.
This is because Academia de Código adapts in each iteration to the group and current technologies.

A unique and incredible experience.
