We are looking for a wide range of people. Our bootcamp program benefits anyone from a college graduate with programming experience to someone from a completely different industry with no experience. We teach you everything from the ground up, so you don’t need to worry about the details. We are simply looking for driven, determined and passionate people looking to make a change in their lives.

If you have prior experience, then that is a plus. If not, and you are willing to work hard and put in the time, you can still succeed since we teach you everything from the ground up.

Absolutely! Technology moves quickly, and the languages and methods you will learn are the latest and most sought after by employers.

We accept all US citizens and any foreign students with a valid visa.

You must be at least 18 years old to attend.

The application process typically takes about one working week as long as you are able to complete all of the required steps on time.

When we first built the Skill Distillery bootcamp program, we surveyed potential employers to determine what skills they most desire when hiring junior developers. The results pointed to HTML/CSS/JavaScript for the front end and Java for the back end. Since our ultimate responsibility to our students is to make them marketable to employers, we chose not to take the easy path of Ruby on Rails, but rather we spend the extra time to teach our students Java full stack.

Think of your Skill Distillery coursework as a full-time job with additional weekend assignments.

Prior to starting at Skill Distillery, you will be required to complete 40-60 hours of pre-class assignments to ensure that you are up to speed on some basics before the first day of class.

After years of experience, we have found that the best way to learn programming is by doing it. Therefore, while classroom-style lecture is an important part of the course, the majority of the time consists of hands-on programming, lab work and projects.

There will be no class on the following days:

• New Years Day
• Memorial Day
• Independence Day
• Labor Day
• Thanksgiving Day
• Day After Thanksgiving
• Christmas Week

We currently do not offer any online, remote, or after-hours delivery options.

We work with a lender that understands the needs of coding bootcamp students and offers attractive financing options with payment deferral while you attend class. Financing for moving expenses and a laptop can also be included.

We have a payment schedule which keeps pace with your progress in the program.

The Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) is a federally funded program to re-skill workers. We are registered in Colorado under Batky-Howell.  (WIOA was formerly known as the Workforce Investment Act (WIA).

Of course! The typical training day consists of short lectures lots of hands-on programming, individual as well as group projects, and of course plain old break time. In addition, expect study sessions, guest speakers and other activities to get away from the grind.

Tuition doesn’t include meals, but we will provide snacks and beverages. We are conveniently located near many restaurants, and there is a cafe in the building.

Yes, all students are responsible for securing a MacBook Pro to use in class for the duration of the program. Your MacBook Pro should be dual-core, 2.3 GHz with hardware virtualization with 8 GB RAM and minimum of 128 GB. 256 GB of storage is recommended. Generally, a MacBook Pro that is a 2012 or later will work.

We have a limited number of loaner laptops available.  Please call or email for details.

Creating a uniform learning environment helps us maximize the time we have to help you become the developer you want to be. 

We don’t provide housing, but if you are in need of a place to stay, please let us know. We have a list of local rentals that offer short-term leases.

This is an intensive training program, including formal classroom training – lecture and hands-on programming. However expect to be working on exercises and projects outside of classroom hours.

We have found that smaller class sizes allow for a better learning experience. By limiting enrollments, we can provide you with the individual attention, assistance, and support you need to succeed. Our average class size is 20 students.

We do not guarantee a job. You will receive solid training in the most sought-after technologies to prepare you for a long-term career.

In the program, you will learn the skills necessary to get a job. There are several job preparation workshops held during the program. Some of the topics are: resume writing, LinkedIn, interview skills, and how to perform an effective job search. The workshops teach you the skills needed to not only get your first programming job but successive jobs down the road. While we do not offer placement services, we do have local hiring partners and work with placement companies. Our students attend from across the country, and we are here to assist with your job search whether it is local or nationwide.

All students must be physically present in order to participate in this program.
