Frequently asked questions

  • Which IT course should a beginner pick?
    If you enjoy building services and working with data, choose Backend Developer Python. If you want to build AI products and work with LLMs, choose AI Engineer. If you'd rather drive product decisions and write requirements, choose Product Management. All three programs are designed for Beginner level.
  • Can I learn without prior coding experience?
    Yes. Programs start with the basics: Python, Git, dev environment. The pace is intense — plan for 15–20 hours a week and a willingness to practise a lot.
  • How long is the course?
    6 months / 26 weeks. Each week is a new module with lectures, hands-on practice and mentor feedback.
  • What does a Backend Developer do?
    A Backend Developer designs and builds the server side of applications: APIs, databases, business logic, authentication, integrations and deployment. We use Python, FastAPI, PostgreSQL, Docker and Redis on the course.
