The traditional university system does not guarantee success or even employment. There are a number of reasons. The 21st-century job market values skills over degrees. The universities are excellent at preparing people for a career in academia. Unfortunately, in the ‘real world’, employers are looking out for candidates that can do a particular thing well. They employ for skill sets rather than qualifications. The size of the average university is too large to foster effec- tive learning. Every student is part of a teeming crowd of people. We've found that creating a strong, close-knit com- munity does wonders for our trainees. The teaching fellows are constantly rooting for the students and peer-to-peer learning boosts their confidence. It gives them the boldness they need to succeed in their careers. 90% of graduates from public universities are aimlessly job hunting with no real hope of getting full-time, well-paying em- ployment anytime soon. What we have done is curate a com- munity of employers that we partner with. This partnership keeps our program at par with industry demands and also gives our graduates a network of potential employers. oe. , +233 54 579 2397 Codetrain https://www.codetrain.africaThis is how the Codetrain Experience compares with a public university degree.
