Why VertexSkills

A different way to break into tech

Success Stories

What the career change actually feels like

I went from a customer support role to a front-end engineering offer in five months. The mentor calls made the difference — I never felt stuck alone.

The project reviews were brutal in the best way. By the time I interviewed, I'd already defended my work a dozen times over.

Tomiwa O.

I'd tried three other bootcamps before this. The difference was the accountability — live cohorts and a mentor who actually checked in.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

No. Most applicants start with zero technical background. What matters most is your commitment to the schedule and the coursework — we handle the rest.

Most tracks run 12–20 weeks part-time, alongside a job or school, with two live sessions a week plus project work.

No. There's no self-paced dashboard or course catalog. You join a live cohort with a fixed start date, a mentor, and a group of peers moving at the same pace.

Career coaching, mock interviews and introductions to our 250+ hiring partners are built into every track, continuing after you complete the program.

Your mentor flags this early in your weekly 1:1s, and session recordings mean you can catch up without losing your place in the cohort.
