UPSCALE learn today, build tomorrow

Upscale Cohort V1.0

Virtual training for people changing direction — into design, into code, or further along the path they already started.

  • Live virtual classrooms
  • 4 career tracks
  • 12–16 weeks per cohort
  • 8h guided each week

Ways in

Switching path

Leave the job that no longer fits. The tracks assume you can show up twice a week and do the studio hours — not that you already have a title in design or engineering.

New to IT

If the vocabulary is new, start on Graphic Design or Front-End. We teach the craft in public: live sessions, recorded catch-up, critique on your actual work.

Upscaling

You already ship bits of this at work and want a cohort, a syllabus, and a capstone with standards. Backend and Full Stack are built for that stretch.
