Take a look through to see the various courses that will be taught when you specialise
in any of our certification tracks.
Whether you are looking to continue your education, transition into a career in tech or simply boost your career path, we offer certifications across three tracks in Software Programming.
At the initial stage, students who are enrolled in AltSchool Africa will spend some time exploring their interests in software engineering by learning through a unified curriculum before eventually landing on an area of focus. When this happens, learning becomes much more specialised to the selected certification track.
Cloud Engineering combines software development and IT operations to build and maintain cloud infrastructure. Cloud Engineers are in high demand, as more companies continue to move critical business processes and applications to cloud infrastructures. In this program, you will gain hands-on experience with cloud platforms, understand how cloud resources are allocated and paid for and learn how to shorten the systems development life-cycle.
These courses have been carefully curated to ensure that you not only have the best learning experience but also acquire the relevant skills required to become a sought after Cloud Engineer.
