Code College bootcamps – The best way to become a coder
Code College is a coding bootcamp provider that focuses on the most in-demand programming languages and practical skills.
Its bootcamps specialise in key coding concepts like database design, user interface design, and team collaboration skills like code reviews and change control.
These skills, as well as the platform-specific skills its different bootcamps offer, will equip you to begin a professional career as a coder.
Why complete a coding bootcamp
Coding bootcamps equip you to become a professional coder without needing to invest excessive time and money into a traditional degree.
They take a more practical approach to coding than many theory-focused university courses, too.
This makes you more attractive to prospective employers, as you can work on projects immediately after completing a bootcamp with Code College.
As an industry leader in designing and running coding bootcamps, Code College revises its courses consistently based on employer feedback and with a focus on helping its graduates crack the job market.
Its bootcamps are available as full-time and part-time courses, too, and can be completed either in-person or online.
The Code College campus for in-person learning is located in Woodmead, Johannesburg – while remote learning takes the form of interactive, screen-sharing webinars.
This makes Code College an excellent choice for anyone looking to switch careers and become a coder – no matter where they live in South Africa.

You must have a laptop and Internet connection that meet these minimum requirements:
- Intel Core i5 9th-gen processor
- 8GB RAM
- Windows
- A stable 10Mbps Internet connection
If you meet these criteria, you can sign up for a Code College course at the following prices:
Web Developer Bootcamp – R50,000, 3-6 month duration, also payable by 12 monthly payments of R4,500.
Java Developer Bootcamp – R90,000, 6-12 month duration, also payable by 12 monthly payments of R8,000.
Good news is that you can take a student loan to cover these costs, and there is also an Income Share Agreement available that lets you pay for your bootcamp once you are employed.
