From Codetrain fellow to Senior Developer in Canada

Five years after joining Codetrain, Awal made the leap into the international tech scene — a remote role with Big Viking Games, a Canadian gaming company, where he rose to Senior Developer in less than a year. He works from his home in Ghana, or anywhere he chooses.

The high demand for tech professionals makes it one of the best-paying industries globally — on average, our graduates move from little or no income to $800–1,000/month after placement.

Success Stories

Real people. Real transformations.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Have questions about our programs, fees, or anything else? Find answers here.

Do I need any tech background to join?

No. You don't need a degree, a computer science certificate, or previous tech experience. Most of our graduates started from zero — including a medical doctor, a finance executive, and a former farm worker. You need computer literacy, teachability, willingness to put in the work — and to pass our intake assessment.

How long are the programmes?

The Full Stack AI Developer and Product Design programmes are 18 months. The AI Program (Talent Accelerator) is 16 weeks, with a 12-week accelerated track by assessment. The AI Advantage Programme runs over 3 Saturdays.

Can I join while working or still in school?

Yes — that's exactly what our weekend class is for. Both delivery modes (in-person and online) offer weekday or weekend schedules, so you can train without leaving your current job or studies.

I'm not in Accra. Can I still join?

Yes. Our online classes are live and interactive — same sessions, same instructors, same milestones as in-person. Students have joined from Kumasi, Cape Coast, Tamale, and from Nigeria, Cameroon, Liberia, and The Gambia.

Are you sure people get jobs after?

89% of our graduates are employed after the programme — a number that is independently audited, not a claim we made up. Our graduates work at Microsoft, Andela, mPharma, Hubtel, and companies in Germany, the UK, the US, and Canada.

Can I really start with zero deposit?

Yes. Through our Income Share Agreement with Chancen International, eligible students start with no deposit and pay tuition only after landing a job. Scholarships of up to 50% and payment plans are also available.

Does Codetrain provide laptops?

Not currently — you'll need your own laptop for training.
