School of IT
School of IT offers both online and in person bootcamps from its campuses in Cape Town and Somerset West, South Africa. Bootcamps include Full Stack Software Development, Mobile App Development, Digital Marketing, CyberSecurity, and Data Science. Students may choose to complete the bootcamps in 12-weeks (full time) or 24-weeks (part time). All bootcamps come with courseware, including ebooks, certain software programs, and additional resources.
No prior coding or educational experience is required. Anyone with a passion for IT is welcome to apply. The bootcamps are also open to current high school students. Start times are flexible, and students may begin courses as soon as they have registered. Students can choose the days and times they want to complete coursework and interact with their mentor.
All School of IT bootcamp students will be assigned a personal mentor with whom they will work 1:1 throughout the duration of the program. Mentors will teach via interactive software and will be able to interact with students’ computer screens and assist with coding and software challenges as though they were in the same room with the student.
School of IT offers job placement assistance for all bootcamps that are between 12 and 24 weeks long. School of IT recommends that students pass international qualification exams before applying for employment.
Payment plans allow bootcamp students the option to pay in 20 hour intervals rather than paying the full cost of tuition upfront. School of IT graduates will receive a certificate of achievement upon bootcamp completion. Students may choose to take internationally recognized Microsoft, Oracle, CompTia++, and/or Adobe certification exams, but these are not required as part of the bootcamp.

I chose to do the Software Development course through School of IT because I felt it was the best choice for me, as you can choose your coding language. I chose java and learnt it over 3 months. We covered intro, intermediate and advanced concepts of software development. The pros about School of IT and the course was the flexibility.

We worked through examples all the time. I would highly recommend School of IT to all my friends as it would be the perfect platform of success for them in IT.

Great and professional.
Great and professional. The lecturers and team are willing to assist you in promptly to any questions. The material given also is good for general understanding. The only thing about online courses is the need for self-responsibility but other than that the team will help you reach your goals. - ChristanIntern • Graduate • Full Stack Software Development course • OnlineJun 04, 2024Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
informative and easier than expected
I did the full stack software development course. It proved to be very informative and easier than expected. My instructor, Nokuthula, went out of her way to keep me engaged in the lessons. The time scheduling was quite flexible, which allowed me to travel and still continue learning . - Robert MathotStudent • Programming courses • Cape TownApr 25, 2024Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A

The course was great I will highly recommend it to others.
The pros for soing a course through School of IT is that you can do it basically on your own time via online with a personal tutor.
You can ask questions anytime you want and they send extra work (homework) dor you to practice.
