Some frequently asked questions

Physical computing devices, such as mobile phones or laptops are referred to as ‘hardware’ and the set of instructions that tells the device what to do are known as ‘software’.

Software Engineering is the process of analysing user needs and then designing, developing and maintaining systems that instruct anything from small applications to large online platforms that will satisfy these needs through the use of software programming languages.

Academy Xi has leveraged curriculum from New York based tech education provider, Flatiron School, to bring you the Software Engineering: Transform course.

Flatiron School has an impressive track record of delivering quality education since 2012. They have successfully graduated over 2,500 students and have won multiple awards for their proprietary tech education programs.

No prior coding experience is required, you can enter this course as a beginner and graduate ready for a Software Development job.

As this course is designed for beginners, you’ll learn everything from the fundamentals of computer science to actually writing code. Any coding experience you bring will be a bonus – but it’s definitely not required.

Our online courses come in three formats. No matter your learning preferences, work or life commitments, or support levels you require – we’ve got you covered.

To choose the right course format, pick your desired career outcomes:

  • Are you studying to transform your career? Our TRANSFORM courses will equip you with the latest industry skills and have you graduating job-ready, with an included Career Support Program.
  • Do you want to complement your existing skillset? Our ELEVATE courses will expand your expertise in a social and supported environment.
  • Do you just want to learn the fundamentals? Quench your curiosity, at your own pace with our FOUNDATIONS courses.

In this course you’ll experience our ‘flipped classroom’ style of learning, where students cover course content independently before coming together to discuss concepts, ask questions and collaborate with mentor support. You’ll learn through a combination of:

  • Readings
  • Pre-recorded videos
  • Regular live sessions with your mentor and peers
  • 1:1 sessions with your mentor
  • Hands-on activities and practical project work
  • Q&A via chat and discussion boards

To ensure our students secure their dream roles, we are proud to offer the Academy Xi Job Guarantee for all Transform courses.
