About us.
We’re Scotland’s first and only SQA accredited digital skills academy on a mission to help bridge the digital skills gap in Scotland’s growing tech industry.
What we do and how we do it.
Through our range of industry-relevant digital training courses we’re helping to transform the careers of 100’s of professionals across Scotland and delivering a steady pipeline of talent to our growing network of employer partners.
Cutting-edge and industry-relevant training.
Our courses support the needs of Scotland’s rapidly evolving digital industry. We take care to understand the skills that are sought by employers across the country and the technologies that are changing businesses every day.
Immersive, hands-on digital courses built for today.
There’s a skills shortage now and we’re not wasting any time. Through our 16-week software development course and shorter upskilling courses we’re transforming careers in days, weeks and months – not years.
Working together to build a stronger economy.
Our Professional Software Development course and employer partner programme provide job opportunities for around 300 graduates every year. They’re creating real impact and delivering immediate value to Scotland’s growing digital economy.
