Get hired as a software developer with our comprehensive coding curriculum.

Coding is an in-demand skill with extensive job opportunities globally. Careers in tech offer you the opportunity to exponentially increase your salary as a young person if you are willing to work hard and continually learn.

Programmers are employed in a wide variety of different types of companies -- from start-ups to big corporates -- which gives you flexibility in where you want to be employed. Programmers are needed in almost every industry so if you don’t yet know what field you are interested in working in, or if you want to work in a variety of fields in the future, you will have this flexibility. Learning how to code improves your problem-solving abilities by fostering your ability to tackle complex problems.

There are three different ways to access financial support to study at CodeSpace.

Fund your studies through an extended payment plan. By paying for your studies over 12 or 20 months, you can decrease your monthly payments, making it easier to afford.

You can also apply for a loan through CodeSpace’s trusted loan providers. There are two types of loans: bank loans and aggregated loans. Bank loans are the traditional loans you receive from a financial institution. However, if you don’t qualify for a bank loan, you can apply for an aggregated loan through alternative funding providers.

Our scholarship program is designed to be fair and accessible. We offer a limited number of scholarships each year, based on both merit and financial need. You can apply for a scholarship through our application form.

CodeSpace exists to provide access to high-growth employment opportunities in the tech industry. Training graduates to be employable is every team member's central focus. We are proud of our 91% graduate employment rate. Our graduates are employed in some of the most exciting tech companies in the industry.

As a student, we help you create a code portfolio to demonstrate your skills to future employers and empower you to excel in your first interviews through our career coaching program. Once you have graduated, we add you to our employment database shared with top tech companies in South Africa. Every CodeSpace graduate receives continued support over the first 1000 days of their tech career.

CodeSpace provides an alternative to getting a degree or an accredited qualification.

CodeSpace is one of many global coding institutions that directly address the skills shortage in the tech industry by providing unaccredited, industry-focused training.

Traditional accreditations have not kept up with the requirements of the tech industry. As a result, global tech companies favour candidates with demonstrable development skills, rather than formal qualifications. Tech giants like Apple, Google, and IBM, no longer require a degree for a candidate to land a job, proving that accreditation no longer equals employability.

Computer Science degrees require 3 to 4 years of studies and hundreds of thousands of rands. But with a CodeSpace course, students can go from having zero coding skills to entering the tech industry as a junior developer in as little as six months. By lowering the time and cost spent on learning to code while ensuring we teach exactly what the industry requires, CodeSpace offers a better value coding education.

Our cutting-edge coding education directly provides what the tech industry is actually looking for: Software Developers. We ensure that we teach the most up-to-date coding curriculum, give you a way to display your skills through a code portfolio, and teach you how to continue learning new coding languages and technologies once you start working.

All learning happens on our world-class online learning portal, which guides you through videos, code snippets, code walkthroughs, challenges, and projects. Each completed project forms part of your ever-growing code portfolios. As a CodeSpace student, you have access to a personal code coach who will support you through our challenging coursework. You interact with your coaches in live, interactive coaching sessions, which happen online or at a CodeSpace campus.

At CodeSpace, it's not only what we teach but HOW we teach that prepares you to enter the tech industry seamlessly. Our online teaching format simulates an online work environment, while our co-learning space emulates a tech startup and teaches you how to work alongside your future colleagues.

You’ll spend about 25 - 40 hours a week studying as a full-time student. This includes lectures and 2 coaching sessions during the day each week.

You’ll spend approximately 10 - 15 hours a week studying as a part-time student. This includes pre-recorded lectures and a coaching session in the evening each week.

Whenever you get stuck, you can message your code coach and classmates with your coding questions on a dedicated instant messaging platform. You’ll be assigned a program coordinator who is available to help you daily with any queries.
