DIGITAL SKILLS BOOTCAMP TRAINEE

GRAB A LIMITED, FREE PLACE ON OUR VIRTUAL 10-WEEK DIGITAL SKILLS BOOTCAMP.

This is a unique chance to kickstart an exciting new career in an increasingly diverse and in-demand sector. You just need to bring an open mind, a thirst for learning, and leave any pre-conceptions at the door. 

The Digital Skills Bootcamps

Ask most people what they’d associate with tech specialists and it’s likely you’d hear ‘Geeks, nerds, computer boffins’ . But this is 2022, and these stereotypes don’t stack up. There’s no one type of ‘tech person’. In fact, it’s an increasingly vibrant and in-demand sector, being entered by people like you. 

The Digital Skills Bootcamps, part of the Government’s Lifetime Skills Guarantee and Plan for Jobs, have one shared goal: to give people - no matter their background or level of knowledge - the opportunity to develop or build up sector specific skills and fast track to suitable, sustainable employment. It’s that simple. 

With four engaging pathways to choose from, Software, Data, Cyber Security and DevOps/Cloud, there’s something to suit everyone.

How do Digital Bootcamps work?

• They’re absolutely free for you to attend.
• They’re delivered virtually via QA Virtual Classroom over 10 weeks of full-time learning. That’s 9-5:30, Monday to Friday – with self-paced assignments to work through in your own time.
• They put you through your paces, equipping you with the key technical skills the world’s leading organisations covet so highly. Through continual assessment, you’ll even get industry-recognised accreditation to prove them.
• Together with a QA Cloud Academy pre-learning pathway, covering Python fundamentals and Cloud literacy, you’ll also learn the soft skills and work-ready know-how to hit the ground running. So from presenting with confidence and preparing a high-quality CV, to readying yourself for technical interviews – our leading trainers have your back.
• Masses of employer participation introducing you to opportunities within their business.

When you complete the Digital Skills Bootcamp, you’ll get: 

• Industry-recognised accreditation – depending on your pathway, you’ll earn certification from Microsoft Azure, AWS, GCP, PeopleCert and/or SFIA to seriously boost your employability prospects.
• Your own recruitment support manager, who’ll work straight away to secure job interviews for local technical roles.
