Our Immersive CodeCamp is a 17-week, full-time course taking a deep dive into in-demand technologies and skills.

What is an apprenticeship?
A LaunchCode apprenticeship is a full time (40 hrs/week), paid position during which you work on a team of experienced developers, and are paired with a mentor that invests in your growth, to learn on the job, and prove yourself.
More than four out of five apprentices convert to permanent employment at their company in a median of 12 weeks.
How will this program prepare me for a tech career?
In addition to gaining the technical skills you’ll need to start your career, Immersive CodeCamp will include a series of career workshops designed to cover all the additional things employers will be looking for. This includes everything from panel talks by professional developers, to technical resume reviews and mock interviews. At the end of the program, you’ll also participate in a Demo Day to present your final projects to employers.
CodeCamp is currently meeting in an online format.
