The UNB Coding Boot Camp

In partnership with McKenna Institute and the University of New Brunswick, TechImpact is launching the first in a series of skilling boot camps. These boot camps directly address our province's tech industry labour shortage and will provide students with a direct path to get hired in the New Brunswick tech workforce. 

The UNB Coding Boot Camp is a 24-week, part-time program, with the next boot camp starting on July 17th, 2023. The tuition cost is $10,955 per student, with multiple tuition support application opportunities available. 

The UNB Coding Boot Camp curriculum will feature the following skills:

  • Browser-based technologies (HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript and jQuery)

  • Databases (MySQL, MongoDB)

  • Server-side development (Express.js, React.js and Node.js)

  • Quality assurance and deployment (unit testing, linting, continuous integration)

 

In addition, students will benefit from a wide range of career services to position you for success through post-program completion and beyond.

TechImpact is also looking for employers who will consider meeting with approved students for the program and who would consider providing a job offer to one of these candidates. TechImpact will facilitate meetings with the approved students so employers can determine if they want to proceed and present a job offer.

Graduates of this Boot Camp will be best suited for the following positions:

  • Full Stack Developer

  • Back End Web Developer

  • Software Developer

  • QA and Test Engineer

  • Front End Web Developer
