Who is this course for?
We are focused on supporting the next generation of tech talent into the knowledge workplace. You will develop transferrable mindsets and systems, which will help you utilise a powerful range of project management and digital operation tools to succeed in todays rapidly evolving space.
From building customisable AI agents to practising engaging presentation skills, from demystifying spreadsheets to wrangling data for visualisation; you'll become an indispensable asset.
Through the course you will use these tools and more in a collaborative, hands-on group setting. Over the 10 weeks you will build useful workplace related projects, work in teams and learn the skills you need to perform in the digital world and innovate in your next role.
What will you learn?
The bootcamp is split into the following modules:
Tools to get you started
Humans evolved by using tools and the digital landscape is no different. You’ll form together your personal toolkit to work towards mastery in your digital world. Your kit will adapt and evolve over time as will your approach to using these tools, supporting you on your journey through this course and beyond into your future roles. The backbone of our current toolkit starts with Notion, Figma and Canva.
Project Management & Presentations
Ideas don’t turn themselves into fully-fledged projects! You’ll learn how to be the driver of the processes which give them life. We’ll cover the many components of effective project management as well as handling tasks with Kanban boards. However, it doesn’t matter how great your project is if you can’t get peoples attention with it, so we’ll sharpen our presentation skills throughout the whole course too.
AI Elements
We will welcome you to the world of AI, one step at a time. From researching the different types and models, to building your own agent with Gemini Gems and understanding what you should and shouldn't put into it; we'll teach you the ropes and how to stay safe.
Data and Data Visualisation
We’ll level up with a 2 week foray into Data, SQL, Databases and Visualisations, giving you the skills to connect to raw data and turn it into powerful insights and show-stopping visualisations. When finished, you’ll be able to use data to empower better decision-making and craft impactful stories.
Project Work & Career Support
Each week, you'll have the chance to put everything you've learned into practice, along with the opportunity to develop those all-important skills for working in teams. We'll cover important career skills and have time to work on our career goals.
