Getting into engineering
The questions people actually ask before they change career, answered plainly
Get into engineering by doing the job. Six weeks inside a working software team, shipping a real product, with your work reviewed by a person every day. Here is everything you would want to know before spending that kind of time and money.
What does it cost, and what am I paying for?
A seat is €490, paid once, and €290 if you book before the early bird closes on 6 November 2026. That buys six weeks inside a working software team: the teaching, the daily review of your code by a person, the project you ship, and the platform that scores your work, which stays yours after the course ends. If a Greek training voucher covers you, write to us and we will arrange your place directly rather than through the checkout.
Can I keep my job while I do this?
Yes. The course meets three times a week: Monday and Wednesday evenings from 19:00 to 21:00 and Saturdays from 11:00 to 13:30, Athens time, from 14 November 2026 to 23 December 2026. Plan a few hours between sessions for your own work on the product. If even that is too much, private lessons move at your pace.
I am not a developer yet. Is this too advanced for me?
You need one thing: you can write a function, call it, and read an error message in JavaScript or TypeScript. You never need to have written a test, used a framework, or worked on a team. What the six weeks teach is the part most self taught developers are missing, how professional software is actually built, reviewed and shipped.
Do I have to come to Greece?
No. The whole course runs online, live over video, in a small group, so you can take it from anywhere with a laptop and a good connection.
What do I actually come out with?
A real product you helped ship, and your own fork of it with every pull request you merged, which is a record of how you work rather than a certificate saying you attended. Beside it sits your belt in the dojo, earned from those merged pull requests, your green builds and your streaks, on a page you can send to anyone. And the certificate, if you want one.
Will this get me a job?
We cannot promise that, and anyone who does is selling you something. What we can do is give you the evidence hiring teams ask for and most juniors cannot produce: real merged pull requests in a real repository, reviewed by a professional, with metrics showing how you work. We will also read your first applications with you. The market decides; we make sure it has something honest to look at.
How do I know if this is right for me?
Meet the sensei for an hour, free, before you decide anything: bring code you are stuck on and you will see exactly how the teaching feels. If you would rather write, we answer within 2 working days.
