### ReDI Students

Our student community brings together people from over 138 countries. Your course won't be different. Your students will come from a wide range of countries. They also come from diverse professional backgrounds - some are currently unemployed or underemployed, while others are students looking to prepare for their careers. With an average age of 32, many of our students hold a university degree and have several years of work experience. What unites all students is their passion for technology and their aim to build a career in the tech industry.&#x20;

### Curriculum

The Full Stack Bootcamp is an 18-week intensive program that combines 14 weeks of technical training with a 4-week career project. Each cohort consists of 25 students who progress through the program together, meeting three times per week in the evenings (Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday from 19:00-21:00). The program follows a project-based learning approach where students work through two projects: First learning React basics by building an E-Commerce Store and then exploring full stack development by working on a Next.js based Twitter Clone. Each project includes weekly milestones and a recap week for review.

### Structure

The weekly schedule includes two distinct session types:

Monday/Thursday: Theory/practical session where new concepts are introduced and practiced.

Wednesday: Coaching Session where students present their progress in small groups.

The teaching team consists of various roles including Session Owners who lead regular classes, Coaches who guide small groups, and Practice Session Owners who run exercise sessions. Volunteers typically commit to one role for the entire semester, investing 3-4 hours per week in direct teaching plus preparation time.

While the program is primarily conducted online via Zoom, it maintains a hybrid format with four on-site community events throughout the semester. The bootcamp is available in three locations (Berlin, NRW, and Hamburg), with local events specific to each city. Students are expected to dedicate approximately 14 hours per week to self-study in addition to attending the scheduled sessions.
