You build your portfolio of projects on a GITHUB repository that you can show to future employers. You add international certificates to your CV. We will assist and coach you on a personal level and introduce you to IT companies in our network.
THE SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT CURRICULUM
The software development training has the goal of getting newbies (aspiring software developers) and intermediate developers to get started well with their journey and hopefully be prepared for the job market after completing all modules successfully.
Software development is a relatively green field in Africa and has a lot of opportunities for young graduates to apply their creative knowledge to solve world problems. There are a lot of different specializations in the software world such as Mobile Application development, Web development, Desktop Applications development, etc.
In our module, we focus more on web development and give brief introductions to the other different specialization areas which helps trainees to have a broader view of the field and decide for themselves where they want to focus in their career life. In the final month of the programme, we brainstorm ideas on a potential product that can be developed by the team and we work on it in groups of developers.
- The programme will include the following modules:
- General Introduction to software Development
- Setting up development environment
- Software Engineering collaboration tools
- Technologies and concepts in web development
- Databases
- Web application frameworks
- Web development with Laravel framework (A php web application framework)
- Servers and Hosting
- Real life web application project
During the programme practical assignments will constantly be executed and in the final month a real life project will be introduced to work on by the team, preferably a project that can be continued to benefit the world after completion.
