What you'll learn
Dev Academy focuses on JavaScript and TypeScript, both essential in the current job market. Our students are also equipped with the skills to pick up other coding languages. Other languages and frameworks we explore include React, RESTful APIs, HTML and CSS.
We prepare you to be a full stack developer by giving you opportunities to work in teams, use industry tools, facilitate simple agile processes, and deliver technical and non-technical presentations just like you would in the industry.

Bootcamp
Auckland, Wellington, or Online Campus
9 weeks, 60 hours per week
The 9 week Bootcamp is a completely immersive experience. Most students commit about 60 hours per week to lectures, assignments and challenges. You will be guided by teachers who are passionate about helping you master the principles of software development, and you'll learn by solving coding challenges in pairs, solo and in group projects.
It's intense so we offer mindfulness and long lunches to combat fatigue and study from home days. In our Auckland campus, one day a week will be studying from home. In Wellington we have been offering hybrid study which is some days from home and some from the campus. If you have questions about this, get in touch.
Human Skills
Weekly deep dives and check-ins
While we train you to be a junior developer, we equally emphasise teaching collaboration and interpersonal skills. Most web development is done in teams and requires effective communication with designers, project managers, and clients.
