Our goal is to provide equal access to a higher education opportunity and remove as many barriers
as possible. We invite anyone between the ages of 17 and 35, who is able to study full-time for two
years at one of our campuses in South Africa to apply. No prior education or coding experience is
required.

WeThinkCode_ is able to accept foreign applicants with permanent residency in South Africa;
asylum seeker visa status or a valid work permit for the three year period, including two years of
study and one year of work placement at a host employer.

Apply on our website by filling in your personal details and take our entrance assessment online or
book to use our campus facilities on an allocated assessment day. The assessment takes 1 hour to
complete and requires stable internet connection.

The bootcamp is a 6 day selection process. It is a practical, hands on experience where applicants are
presented with problems to solve both as individuals and in teams. The assessment is designed for
both those with prior coding experience as well as applicants that have never coded before. We
introduce applicants to new concepts and evaluate their ability to grasp the concepts and then apply
them to solve problems.

This is the process we use to source a diverse cohort of talented people without using traditional
methods such as prior education and CVs.

Applicants that have never coded before will begin with an introduction to programming basics
using an introductory programming language. Each day applicants will be required to complete a
series of exercises. At the end of each day, applicants will be required to complere a project
assessment that is used to evaluate the level of understanding and the ability to apply the concepts
learned.

Applicants with prior programming experience start with Python basics. They are required to
complete a series of exercises, projects and assessments designed to evaluate the level of technical
skills. This will be followed by a group project and exam.
