It was founded by Rob Johnson and Evgeny Shadchnev in December 2012 [1] and is designed to turn people with no knowledge of web development into job-ready junior developers in 12 weeks. ProgrammeMakers Academy claims to take students with little or no experience in computer programming[2] and teach them the fundamentals of web development. The stated aim is to help students develop the necessary skills to secure a role as a junior developer upon graduation. The course covers professional web development technologies such as Ruby on Rails, HTML5, CSS, Javascript, jQuery, SQL, Ajax and softer skills including Object-oriented design, Test Driven Development, Agile Methodology and version control with Git. The main course is preceded by a 4-week, part-time, online 'pre-course' which students have to complete first. The program adopts a "learn by doing" approach, achieved largely through self-directed, project-based work. Students are encouraged to work in pairs on practical coding challenges, with weekly tests, culminating in a final project which is presented to hiring partners on "Graduation Day".[3] Makers Academy claims a 100% success rate in getting graduates into jobs as junior developers. CurriculumThe course is split into 16 weekly sections (12 weeks of intensive learning, preceded by a 4-week, part-time, 'pre-course'):[4]
At the end of each week students are given a test to gauge their progress, with merit stickers given to those who pass the test.[5] Women in techMakers Academy claim to be attempting to tackle the issue of the lack of women in the IT Industry.[6][7] They offer a £500 scholarship to any woman attending their course,.[8] ReceptionMakers Academy has been featured on Sky,[9] in The Guardian,[10] The Independent,[11] Tech City News,[12] Forbes,[13] MadeInShoreditch,[14] ComputerWeekly,[15] StartupBook,[16] TechWeekEurope.[17] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.crunchbase.com/company/makers-academy|title=Makers Academy|publisher=Crunchbase.com|accessdate=2 December 2014}} 2. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.independent.co.uk/student/career-planning/cracking-the-code-what-is-makers-academy-8883921.html|title=Cracking the code: What is Makers Academy?|work=The Independent|accessdate=2 December 2014}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://shoreditchworks.com/women-in-tech-makers-academy-graduation|title=Women in Tech & Makers Academy Graduation - Shoreditch Works|publisher=Shoreditchworks.com|accessdate=2 December 2014}} 4. ^ 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://blog.hamchapman.com/getting-to-grips-with-git|title=Getting to Grips With Git|author=Hamilton Chapman|work=Hamilton Chapman|accessdate=2 December 2014}} 6. ^{{cite web|url=http://blog.makersacademy.com/ibm-women-scholarship-august-cohort-graduation/|title=IBM Women Scholarship & August Cohort Graduation|work=Makers Academy Blog|accessdate=2 December 2014}} 7. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.computerweekly.com/blogs/witsend/2013/08/changing-perceptions-for-female-developers.html|title=Changing perceptions for female developers|publisher=Computerweekly.com|accessdate=2 December 2014}} 8. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.makersacademy.com/info/payment-plans |accessdate=January 16, 2014 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20130831010514/http://www.makersacademy.com/info/payment-plans|title=Payment Plans|archivedate=August 31, 2013 }} 9. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EXOtISO0RBQ|title=Swipe News}} 10. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2013/oct/14/learn-how-to-code|title=10 places in Britain where you can learn how to write computer code|work=the Guardian|accessdate=2 December 2014}} 11. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.independent.co.uk/student/career-planning/cracking-the-code-what-is-makers-academy-8883921.html|title=Cracking the code: What is Makers Academy?|work=The Independent|accessdate=2 December 2014}} 12. ^{{cite web|url=http://techcitynews.com/2013/06/10/learn-to-code-for-free-with-makers-academy-enternships-scholarship/|title=Learn to code for free with Makers Academy & Enternships scholarship|publisher=Techcitynews.com|accessdate=2 December 2014}} 13. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.forbes.com/sites/rogertrapp/2014/01/31/technology-needs-new-role-models|title=Technology Needs New Role Models|author=Roger Trapp|date=31 January 2014|work=Forbes|accessdate=2 December 2014}} 14. ^{{cite web|url=http://madeinshoreditch.co.uk/2013/10/25/web-developers-bootcamp-makers-academy/|title=Web Developers Bootcamp: Makers Academy|publisher=Madeinshoreditch.co.uk|accessdate=2 December 2014}} 15. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.computerweekly.com/blogs/cwdn/2013/04/the-ten-week-developer-career-switch.html|title=The ten-week developer career switch|publisher=Computerweekly.com|accessdate=2 December 2014}} 16. ^{{cite web|url=http://startupbook.co/2013/11/20/heres-how-the-makers-academy-boot-camp-is-helping-tech-talent-thrive-in-london/#!sn0PJ|title=StartupBook » Curated News and Advice for Entrepreneurs » OXBRIDGE MEETS THE ROYAL MARINES: How Makers Academy’s Bootcamp Helps Tech Talent Thrive In London|work=StartupBook|accessdate=2 December 2014}} 17. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.techweekeurope.co.uk/news/makers-academy-universities-wont-help-solve-it-skills-crisis-113181|title=Makers Academy: Universities Won’t Help Solve IT Skills Crisis|work=TechWeekEurope UK|accessdate=2 December 2014}} External links
