Whether you’re a new student just starting out or want to revamp your resume to get a boost in your career, Flatiron School offers multiple (and affordable) options to fit everyone’s unique lifestyle. Read: You or your adult kids could learn the skills needed for a high-paying tech job at significantly less cost than a traditional college tuition.

Flatiron School offers bootcamps in software engineering, data science, product design, and cybersecurity engineering in two formats:

  • Full-Time: Learn on a fixed schedule, roughly eight hours a day, Monday to Friday, in as little as 15 weeks.
  • Part-Time: Learn on your own schedule over 40 weeks.

So, you can select which pace fits your learning style + schedule.

Bonus: Students gain real-world experience through hands-on projects that can help build their professional portfolios.

Flatiron also offers graduates up to 180 days of one-on-one career coaching to help students succeed during their job search. Career coaches review resumes, help build a student’s online presence, and can even help practice interviewing techniques. Students can take advantage of Flatiron’s employer network for active career opportunities as soon as they graduate.
