You can take a look at the upcoming webinars here. This webinar is an example, we are always launching new content - either from Web Development, UX/UI Design, or Data Analytics. At the end of the day, the objective is to discover which field that really inspires you before you start to get your career off the ground. If you want to have a more practical approach, we can also go on workshops or webinars. If you want to start out with something simple and do some of your own research on web development, we recommend you take a look at CodeAcademy or Freecodecamp. It's important to find out what really interests, motivates and inspires you. Don't limit your choice to your potential chances of finding employment. In order to make this decision, it’s a good idea to conduct an in-depth analysis. But how to decide which one is right for you? At Ironhack, we advocate the fields of study with the highest chances of employability: web development, UX/UI design and data analytics. The best thing to do would be to pick a specific area and delve in deep. Let's be honest: the tech world holds an ocean of knowledge and it's not possible (or advisable) to try and learn everything at once, especially if you're just starting out.

But, where do I start? How do I go about taking my first steps in the tech industry? Companies are increasingly recruiting their talent from bootcamps, and it's no happy coincidence. The main aim of a bootcamp is to prepare students to tackle and satisfy the real needs of the job market, allowing them to secure the job of their dreams without having to study a university degree or vocational training course.

Culminating in an individual project that you plan and write from scratch.

Packing into a few months what would traditionally takes years to learn.

Participants don't need any former qualifications.

A focus on acquiring specific practical skills.

Essentially, that's what defines a bootcamp, a training programme that's known for: It's not a question of learning for learning's sake, rather the methodology hones in on what companies are actually looking for in potential candidates. So, to tackle this shortage, the education sector has devised a methodology that seeks to teach the key skills needed to satisfy this demand. The tech market is undeniably lacking in qualified professionals. Why are bootcamps becoming such a popular way of learning? And you wouldn't be wrong, but what actually is a tech bootcamp? M aybe something to do with camping in the woods? Or perhaps outdoor military-style training? Doesn't it have something to do with learning to programme in your garage? Cold, cold. Is this a new trend or a chance to upshift your career? You've probably heard the term mentioned more than once and you'll know it's somehow related to technology, development, a career shift, innovation and even design.
