FAQ

No, it is not possible to take the program part-time at our existing campuses. The CodeBoxx program is far too demanding to hope for success by not being 100% dedicated to the program for 16 weeks. The candidates who didn’t believe us and tried the experiment all failed. In addition, it is strongly recommended not to hold a job during the training, otherwise failure awaits you. It is not impossible to pass the training and have a job at the same time, but under very specific conditions: a handful of hours, on weekends only.
In addition, an online “at your own pace” type program will be launched in 2021. Stay tuned!

For all our active campuses, we start cohorts in January, May and September of every year. In campuses for which registrations are open, we cannot have a start date before we reach a certain level of registrations.

Upon graduation, you get CodeBoxx’s very own diploma and, most importantly, you get a job! Our program is not recognized by Education Ministries, it is recognized by the market and the employers that hire our grads and that’s what matters to us. We want our graduates to get jobs, period. One of our mottos is “Skills over Education” and most tech companies have the same approach to solve the critical labor shortage that is affecting the industry. Actually, signs that times are changing, even the US Government has committed to favor Skills over Education for its federal hirings going forward.

None! At CodeBoxx, we accept everyone! A registration reserves you a seat in the cohort and the enrollment process, although mandatory, is not disqualifying. The Genesis program, lasting 2 weeks, acts as the selection test. More details in the following article: https://codeboxx.biz/pages/CodeBoxx-Comment-ca-marche

At CodeBoxx, the days follow each other but are not alike! The immersive context of the program combined to its heavy workload makes every day, and every week different. Certainly, the majority of participants need at least 50 hours to submit a quality deliverable each week. More details in the following article: https://codeboxx.biz/article/1155

We have campuses in Montreal, Quebec, Canada and Quebec City, Quebec, Canada. We have a very ambitious expansion plan for the upcoming months and years.
Registrations for a new campus in Tampa Bay, FL are currently open!

We have announced recently the launch of an online “campus” so people outside the cities in which we have physical campuses can have access to our program and our training. We have had tons of questions regarding this new online campus and we are therefore taking some time to give you all the details about it.
Here are the most common questions we get about the online campus:

Is the program different from the physical cohorts?

The program, the support offered to participants by our team and the coaches and the concept is exactly the same. Moreover, for the first edition in September, we will keep the same deadlines as well. Another version of the program to be released in 2021 will allow candidates to perform it at their own rhythm.

The physical cohorts allow participants to pay only when they get their job, does this still apply?

Unfortunately, we cannot apply the same promises that we make to graduates of our physical cohorts, namely “pay only when you get a job” and “job guaranteed”. The online program is a pay upfront pricing model. In cities in which we have a campus, we are working with our partners to hire our graduates, plus we have our digital workshop as well to fulfill our promise, but since participants to the online program are going to be everywhere, we cannot give the same guarantees. That being said, if you are living in a city in which we have a physical campus, you should register for that campus first and not for the online campus.

How much does it cost?

The cost is $10,000, payable before the start of the program.

Is financing available?

Financing is available through our partner Desjardins. You can get access to a loan quickly.

What is the refund policy?

The refund policy may take place only if there has been a written proof by a doctor that justifies the impossibility of continuing the training. If that criteria is checked, here’s the refund policy:

• • If you have completed Genesis and 2 weeks or less of the Odyssey program, you are eligible for a full refund.
  • If you have completed the Genesis program and up to 6 weeks of the Odyssey program, you are eligible for a refund of 50% of the tuition fees.
  • If you have completed the Genesis program and have completed more than 6 weeks of the Odyssey program, you are not eligible for a refund.

May I still borrow a laptop?

No. We do not offer the device loan program to the online program participants.

Am I still part of the CodeBoxx Community and can enjoy all the perks and benefits associated?

Yes, absolutely! You get perpetual access to the CodeBoxx community to properly manage your career’s success!
