Preparing for courses
Our training is designed for beginners, but we ask that you have a strong foundation in computer literacy and be comfortable using a computer and the programs it contains.
Please take and pass the test when a candidate applies to study in advanced programs.
The easiest training direction depends on your existing knowledge and interests. If you have no experience in the IT field, you can start with testing – this field does not require programming knowledge and provides a good understanding of IT processes.
Also a popular direction for beginners is Front-end programmingbecause it allows you to see the results of your work (e.g., a created website) quite quickly and has a lot of visual content.
If you like analytics and numbers, you might consider Data analyst – it does not require deep programming knowledge, but provides strong data processing skills using SQL and Python programming languages.
The best direction depends on your interests, so if you have more questions, we will be happy to help you find the most suitable option!
If you decide to join a specific course, we will share a pre-course that will introduce you to the necessary information and software that will be needed during the course. You only need to provide a personal computer, and if you only have a work computer, you need to ensure that administrator restrictions do not affect the installation of the necessary programs.
No, a high level of English knowledge is not necessary, but basic knowledge will be very useful when studying and later working in the IT field.

A successful career change depends on the ability to learn, adapt to changes, and take the time to learn new things. Previous work experience and existing skills can be valuable in a new field. The most important thing is motivation and determination to pursue a career in the IT sector.
During the course, you will gain a strong foundation of technical knowledge, but it is important to demonstrate your motivation and desire to continue learning and your desire to establish yourself in the IT sector. If you continue to deepen your knowledge and strengthen your skills after the training, this will be a great advantage for you when looking for a job.
