Course: Coding Traineeship
Placement Date: April 2024

Why did you start the Traineeship?
I started the Coding Traineeship because I was determined to get a job in software development without the cost of university and because of the money-back guarantee which gave me confidence in my decision.
What did you enjoy most about the Traineeship?

I enjoyed pretty much every aspect of the Coding Traineeship, from learning with Codecademy to developing the portfolio projects and website. It is a great experience for those who have the self-motivation to learn without too much oversight and turn what you have learned into full-stack projects.

What's your current role like?
My current role as a junior developer with Light & Wonder is a great introductory role to software development, with good pay, benefits and, most importantly, opportunities to gain more experience in front end development.
