What’s the purpose of our DevOps Bootcamp?

To provide the technical training, hands-on experience, and optional career-change support to help you become a professional DevOps engineer.

How is our DevOps Bootcamp delivered?

The DevOps Bootcamp is delivered part-time in the evening:

  • Time: 18:30 - 21:30 UK time

  • Days: 2 per week (Mon & Wed or Tue & Thur)

  • Homework and projects: approx 9 hours per week

  • Workplace simulator: We create an individual work environment for you with your own virtual machine and Google Cloud project, in which you'll create a simulated tech company where you're the DevOps Engineer.

    You'll learn and apply the concepts, tools, and strategies that are central to DevOps, for creating end-to-end automated processes that enable your company to deliver reliable, scalable, and secure applications to users, faster.

    This approach gives you both the knowledge and hands-on practical experience of being a DevOps Engineer and solving the challenges you'll face in an actual company.

  • 1-2-1 support: Available throughout

  • Duration: 20 weeks

Whether you're a systems administrator, a software engineer, or a total beginner looking to change careers, this programme will take you from little or no DevOps experience to a professional standard, within 20 weeks.

Is the DevOps Bootcamp on campus or remote?

The Jump is based in London, UK, but all our training is delivered remotely so that our students can learn to become software engineers, from anywhere. Students do not attend on campus.

How are we different from other schools or DevOps courses?

Small software engineering course cohorts for personalised support

Small cohorts

We keep our class sizes relatively small, so that we can give you the interactive training and personalised support you need. A lot of schools will pack 50+ students onto their cohorts.

Highly experienced instructors

Experienced Instructors

Many schools use their recent grads as instructors. We don’t. Your DevOps instructor is a Principal Software Engineer and DevOps Lead with 15+ years of experience. They intuitively know the tech and have a wealth of wisdom.

commercially relevant

Complete DevOps training

Lots of schools focus on certification. We don't. Whilst a certificate is great, it's not required, and our training covers all aspects of the role of a DevOps engineer and encompasses much more than a single certification.

Making learning as accessible as possible

As accessible as possible

We make our training as accessible as possible. Offering both part time and immersive training gives you the flexibility to choose the best training option for you; we run our training at a discount to the market; we offer the training remotely so you can learn from anywhere; we record every session in case you miss it or need to recap; we give you whatever support you need.

Making learning as accessible as possible

Workplace Simulator

Applied learning. We set you up as though you are a DevOps Engineer, and we walk you through the processes and challenges faced by teams delivering applications. You get hands on experience in solving exactly the kinds of problems you’ll face in the role of a DevOps Engineer.
