Part-Time/Hybrid Coding Bootcamp
A hybrid coding bootcamp model that makes learning easier, more convenient and more flexible!
Hybrid Coding Bootcamp
- Learn foundational concepts with dynamic, online “blended learning” modules and interactive videos – designed to save you time and expenses, like transportation and childcare.
- Weekly one-on-one sessions with instructors and career specialists!
- Get in-person support from mentors and peers – and do “pair-programming” with expert instructors.
- Stay engaged and accountable – your key to success.
The onsite portion of this coding bootcamp program is offered at our Columbus location.
Results-Oriented Progressive Tech Education
Our Part-Time/Hybrid program offers the same modern educational experience as our in-person program which includes collaborative learning, capstone projects and a strong focus on career services; all while giving you the flexibility of a primarily remote environment.
Why combine online learning with in-person?
This hybrid or “blended learning” model actually improves learning outcomes! A study by Ohio State University’s Academic Learning Lab showed that students using a hybrid instructional model combining web-based and classroom components achieved the highest GPAs, relative to past performance. The hybrid model “seemed to provide students both structure and opportunity for involvement in the learning process.”

Do I still get a supportive bootcamp community?
Yes! We’ve built-in the same support you’ve come to expect from We Can Code IT into a new flexible model to fit your busy life!
You’ll meet with instructors and your student success coach weekly (your choice of web meeting or in-person) and take part in group coding weekends twice a month. You’ll also work with your peers on a weekly basis, joining together remotely using collaboration software for pair-programming sessions or projects.
What do I learn in Part-time/Hybrid?
You get Full Stack development training – giving you in-demand front-end and back-end skills for way more job opportunities. You get the same high-quality bootcamp training We Can Code IT offers in the classroom – plus career services to help you land the high-paying job you want.
Even though new languages arise frequently, it’s most important for developers to master core, legacy languages. By and large, employers’ most common requirement today are JavaScript and Java. Nearly 50% of employers in all industries are looking for developers who know these core languages.

“I attended We Can Code IT’s Part-time/Hybrid program after trying to teach myself to code and then being unsatisfied with my progress. The program let me learn at my own pace with modules done on my own time online and meet with classmates and the Instructor every other weekend. It really was the best of both worlds!
The Instructor was patient and available for questions and problems pretty much all the time. He clearly loves teaching and helping students. The Student Success Team had great advice and were so supportive, even after I graduated. The program helped me with my resume, interviewing, portfolio, and even set up some visits from local employers. This personal attention and mentorship really helped me succeed.
Working on a team for our final project taught me teamwork and reinforced good source control practices, too. I studied and worked on projects while taking care of my kids, without any big changes to their routines, which was a big plus for me.
I landed a great job about a month after I graduated, as a direct result of networking organized by the school. We Can Code IT helped me move from stay-at-home-mom to developer! I highly recommend it.”
