Nine-month Program Curriculum

The code school calendar will have four phases called “program increments” (PI), which will include three, 3-week sprints. Each increment will include pair programming, team-based development, agile project management, application development, career management skills, and development of community engagement and networking.

Students will go through an immersive, hands-on program to build a foundation of both hard, technical skills and soft, communication, teamwork and leadership skills to ready them for the workforce upon graduation.

Students who complete the Code School will have competencies in the best practices and technologies that underpin dynamic web application development. Students will be prepared to succeed as entry-level full stack-web application developers.

MCC’s Workforce Innovation Division will aid individuals in building the skills to fit career needs with regular one-on-one support, and businesses are at the ready to potentially hire upon completion of the program.

The nine-month immersive Code School program is $13,950. This is a noncredit program and does not qualify for federal financial aid.

Gap funding is available to those who qualify.

• A passion for programming and delivering solutions
• A technical foundation in web development to build on
• A willingness to work in a teamwork culture
• A readiness to commit to an intensive nine-month program

Some computer coding language experience is needed to enter this specific program. We also can work with individuals who have varying skill levels to determine if there are other related programs at Metropolitan Community College that may be a better fit.

Our goal is to help students start a career at the end of our nine-month program. Sixteen students will work in groups of four, and we will employ team collaboration, communication, as well as Agile concepts and methodology to simulate a real work environment.

This is a noncredit program with the potential to apply credit toward an MCC degree program.

Any type of personal computer is acceptable or one will be provided during class hours.

The program allows for light full-time work and part-time work during the nine-month duration. At completion, MCC Workforce Innovation Division will work with students to secure and succeed in a full-time entry-level junior developer role.
