The courses that make up our core programming can take you from no previous coding experience to rocking the skills needed to land your first tech job in tech.
View Core ProgramsWhether you are looking for a short intro or looking for a broader tech skills curriculum, our self-paced programs are designed to fit your schedule.
View Self-Paced ProgramsPlease note: You may only submit one application per enrollment period.
Core Programs: One application covers all core programs (Full-time, Part-time, W+ Part-time Software Development, and Part-time Data Analysis). Within the application, you can select your class preference. Submitting this single application does not count as multiple applications.
Self-Paced Programs: Foundations and FlexPath each have their own application.
If multiple applications are submitted, we will only consider the first one received.

LaunchCode’s unique model relies on three sources: donations from community members, public and private grants to support education and job preparedness, and the revenue we earn from employers after paying wages and benefits to our apprentices. Because we’re a nonprofit organization, all the money goes to support the next cohort of classes and apprenticeship jobs, and the cycle sustains itself.
