The structure and enthusiasm of Co.Lab was extremely helpful in keeping motivated after my bootcamp. Working in sprints with our entire team helped me to understand the true realities of development that my bootcamp didn't teach.

Questions? We have answers.
We do not teach you how to code, so we ask that you at least have some coding experience under your belt. Previous Co.Laborators have included recent bootcamp grads, self-taught career pivoters, and junior developers looking to build new projects.
We have a suggested minimum time commitment of at least 20 hours per week. We do have a mixture of both live and video courses, though ultimately, you get to choose your own schedule with your team.
You tell us! Teams decide for themselves what they build, and work collaboratively to find actual users, and determine actual customer pain points. You can find some ideas on our project page.
The product managers, designers and developers you’ll be working with are also like-minded, motivated techies looking to grow in their careers. You’ll be navigating the Co.Lab journey together. Our matching is determined based on teamwork styles, experiences, interests, and other logistics.
Don't think of Co.Lab as a class or a bootcamp. Think of it as a real-world project that simulates the work environment as closely as can be. That means it can sometimes be stressful. However, if you want to do product, you have to build product. We want you to try it out for yourself, in the low-stakes and supportive environment that is Co.Lab.
If you’re looking for a challenge and to truly stand out from the crowd with cross-functional product experience, join Co.Lab.
