New job or new expertise? What if you could choose both?

Code Academy combines new work and expert training into one package in a convenient way. In addition to the job you're aiming for, you’ll also invest in your own expertise in the long run and boost your skills on topics that are very sought after in the IT industry.

The main goal of the Academy is to employ you with a partnering company at the end of a 5-month program. During the five-month period, you will also get to know the work community and final work assignments in advance, so you’ll have all the right tools to succeed in your future role.

You can apply to the recruiting training program if you are currently unemployed or facing the prospect of unemployment, and your job search is active at Labor Exchange (TE-palvelut). The program is conducted in close cooperation with Saranen, TE-palvelut, ELY-keskus, Ohjelmisto- ja e-business ry and the partnering companies.

The program is free of charge for participants.

The Academy gives you the opportunity to influence on your career development and what your next role might look like. Curiosity about new topics and technologies, as well as your enthusiasm for developing your own professional skills, are your greatest strengths, whether you are in the early stages of your career or an already more experienced expert. We value diversity so come as you are!
