Flex Program Timeline
In the Flex Program, you will learn what you need to launch your career while working around your existing schedule. That means you learn and build on your own time while accessing our staff through online chat and regular office hours. When you work with a mentor, you get the advantage of 1-on-1 code review from an experienced engineer.
While the program is designed to be flexible, it is still a major commitment and you will be challenged. To be successful, you will need to commit at least 20 hours per week and seek support from your mentors, instructors and classmates.
Ultimately, the timeline for launching your career is entirely in your hands!
How Much Time Do You Have?
The first step towards understanding what the program might look like is understanding how much time you have to devote to it. Our students come from all sorts of different backgrounds:
The Full-Time Professional or College Student
If you are already working or studying a full-time, you can likely make time to code during the evenings and on the weekends.
Typical: 20-30 hrs/wk
The Part-Time Professional
If you are working part-time to pay the bills but can't stop coding otherwise, you're in a great position to take on Flex!
Typical: 30-40 hrs/wk
The All-In Viking
If you have cleared your calendar in preparation for diving deep into Viking and can't wait to get started, the sky is the limit!
Typical: 40-60 hrs/wk
The key with a program of this difficulty and duration is to build a sustainable routine for coding. Remember that it's a marathon, not a sprint!
