WeThinkCode_ Student Experience
Fellows work together in teams, solving real-world problems through a blend of pair programming, continuous integration, and project cycles. As learner Kori Sefeane (Cohort 2019) puts it: “One month at WeThinkCode_ teaches you more than two years at a traditional university.” That’s the difference between theory and practice.
Program Curriculum
The program is split into two phases:
Phase 1 (Months 1–8): Foundations
- Learn coding fundamentals using Python, then transitioning into Object-Oriented Programming (Java) and software design patterns.
Phase 2 (Months 9–16): Specialization & Projects
- Engage in brownfield development—working with existing codebases.
- Choose a specialization such as Automation QA, Mobile Development, or Systems Integration.
- Develop a final group project that mirrors industry workflows.
