Learn full-time. Think of this one as the fast-track schedule with lots of accountability. You’ll attend live lectures and work on projects both solo and with others from your cohort. |
Learn at your own pace. Think of this one as working with your already-busy schedule. Flexibility is the name of the game here. It’s the same curriculum as our full-time program, but you set the pace. |

Enjoy a learning community on our Denver campus and online
*Due to the pandemic, all courses are currently offered online. With campuses around the country, we’ll soon reopen our spaces where you can connect with fellow students and alumni, find quiet studying space, and attend networking and workshop events. Programs can be completed from home, with the option to be on-campus as our locations reopen. Learn more about the campus experience.
One curriculum, no matter which pace you choose
If accountability, a set schedule, and dedicated classmates match your learning style, we suggest learning full-time. But if you have a packed schedule and flexibility is what matters most to you, we recommend choosing our Flex program.
No matter which pace you pick, you'll learn our tried-and-true coding curriculum proven to help students land coding jobs and start promising software engineering careers.
After diving into the fundamentals of programming, you'll get comfortable with creating UIs and style webpages, including JavaScript and ReactJS.
You'll learn two key Ruby frameworks, first mastering the fundamentals of web programming with Sinatra before learning how to build incredible apps with Rails.
You'll gain a thorough understanding of Ruby basics before getting comfortable with object-oriented programming and storing information in databases using SQL and Object Relational Mappers.
First, you'll learn Rails — an object-oriented, Ruby framework — before using it to create their own JSON API along with productive, scalable front-ends with React and Redux, creating slick, functional, reactive code.
After completing four curriculum modules focused on group projects, you'll work with instructors to come up with project concepts and spend dedicated time building truly sophisticated applications. You'll receive plenty of instructor feedback along the way while diving deep into various advanced technologies needed to bring your concepts to life.
Pick a start date that fits your schedule
In our full-time courses, you'll have access to a virtual classroom where you’ll interact with your instructors and fellow students on a fixed, full-time schedule: 9 hours a day, Monday through Friday, for 15 weeks.
If you select the Flex schedule, you have the option of 20, 40, or 60 weeks and can change your learning pace at any point. That way, if your schedule changes and you'd like to learn at a faster pace — or more slowly — you have the flexibility to make that change.
Once you apply, you'll work with your admissions representative to select the pace and start date that best fits your timeline, so you can start learning to become a software engineer in a way that makes sense for you.

A Denver coding bootcamp with passionate instructors and seasoned Career Coaches
Learning something new is best done with others. No matter whether you learn on campus or online, our coding bootcamp is designed to combine flexibility and community so you're never alone and support is always available.
Experienced software engineers with a passion for teaching
Since day one over seven years ago, we’ve taken teaching seriously. Great teachers inspire us to connect to topics on a profound level, but development experience alone doesn’t necessarily make someone an effective teacher. That’s why we’re passionate about finding not only great engineers, but deeply committed teachers.
Whether you learn software engineering with our full-time program or at your own flexible pace, you'll learn from the best.
Coming from a background in education, Eric Kim found his love for programming and problem-solving while studying mathematics. He enjoys working with people and bringing out their best potential. When he’s not teaching, Eric enjoys a good brain-teaser, as well as a good hike.
With a background in computer science and foreign languages, Michelle enjoys helping students develop and grow their problem solving and tech skills. When not teaching, you can find her singing her heart out or doing macro photography.
A career changer themselves, Ix started their career in tech support for a video game platform. Over time Ix found a passion for teaching and made a final move into tech education. They now help others learn the skills and tools needed to make the leap into tech for themselves.

Meet our alumni who changed their lives through our Denver coding bootcamp
Succeeding in our Denver coding bootcamp takes passion and hard work. Meet our software engineering alumni and learn how Flatiron School helped change their lives.
“Flatiron School not only opened the doorway to a life and career in tech, it lead me to Denver, where I’m working at Vertafore as a software engineer today.”
“Being able to know what the code is and explaining why it works are two very different things. I was able to talk about my code a lot at Flatiron, and that helped when I had technical interviews.”
“Flatiron School put the most effort into proving their methods worked and that was such a vote of confidence for me.”
