Are you interested in technology and software development and looking for a training programme with hands-on experience? The Digital Talents Programme combines learning with real-world work experience and offers a direct pathway into IT.
Bootcamp: Building the fundamentals
You will begin with a six-week bootcamp, where you will build a solid foundation in IT. During this phase, you will acquire the technical knowledge needed for the next stage of the programme and prepare for your practical assignments.
First practical phase: Putting your skills into practice
Following the bootcamp, you will complete your first six-month placement with a partner company. Working on real-world projects, you will gain valuable practical experience and discover how your knowledge is applied in day-to-day business.
Second practical phase: Expanding your expertise
In your second six-month placement, you will gain experience in a different business environment and further strengthen your skills. This phase allows you to deepen your technical knowledge while broadening your understanding of different working methods and the varied demands of the IT industry.
