DigitalCrafts Courses

DigitalCrafts looked to industry partners to create its web development and UX design curricula. Core coursework helps students develop critical skills in their field. DigitalCrafts coding bootcamps also offer elective workshops for students and alumni. These sessions cover specific skills to address new technology or advanced skills not explored in the core curriculum.

Full-time students must dedicate 40 or more hours each week to their course, while part-time students attend lectures on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. The DigitalCrafts Demo Day offers graduates the chance to show off their projects to family, friends, and prospective employers.

DigitalCrafts Admissions Process

DigitalCrafts coding bootcamp curricula allow participants with various experience levels to learn new technical skills and enter a new career. However, students need a baseline level of technical knowledge before starting their immersive program. DigitalCrafts uses a coding assessment to make sure students understand basic JavaScript and HTML principles.

The 15-question assessment allows applicants to use books or other resources to complete the quiz. About half of all applicants have little or no coding experience, according to DigitalCrafts. To help them succeed, the company provides beginner resources. Once accepted, learners can expect to complete 40-60 hours of prep work before the first day of class.

DigitalCrafts Payment Options

The DigitalCrafts coding bootcamp price varies by program and whether students attend on a full-time or part-time basis. The bootcamp offers multiple payment options.
