QA offers a range of software engineering training products that put practical project delivery at the heart of our learning. We do this by combining practical, project-focused learning with bursts of theory, so engineers can build real-world solutions to solve modern business problems.
Our QA Talent Academy has operated in the software industry for a number of years, offering bootcamp-style training lasting up to 14 weeks in a range of different technologies, tools and practices. This approach equips our software engineers with all of the skills required to develop scalable, enterprise, end-to-end applications, while also appreciating and interacting with all other aspects of the software development lifecycle.
Alongside our Academy, we also offer Level 3 Software Development Technician and Level 4 Software Developer apprenticeship programmes.
Finally, QA's Software practice runs 70 software engineering training courses. Our front-end programmes prepare engineers with the understanding of modern technologies, patterns and paradigms to build front-end applications with leading technologies such as ReactJS and Angular. Our back-end programmes equip software engineers with key technical skills, languages, patterns and development techniques to build robust, concurrent and secure server-side solutions using languages such as Python, Java, C#, Scala and JavaScript.

Our tech bootcamps offer up to 14 weeks of training in a range of modern software tools and technologies that spans across the entirety of the software development lifecycle. Whether you need a front-end developer, a back-end engineer or a combination of both, our QA bootcamp will equip learners with all of the skills they need to start contributing towards the management of enterprise-level applications.
We recognise that there are times when retaining talent and business expertise is preferable to hiring or upskilling from scratch; we've listed, and this is why we've developed QA tech bootcamps to help you achieve this.
