Become a coder in six weeks

Of the first group of 90 trainees to complete the intensive, six-week program, 15 percent were refugees. Attendees were mainly selected by ADEM, Luxembourg’s national employment agency. Start&Code cares about results, so support extends beyond coding into the application & onboarding phase. This program turns the technology boom into an immediate opportunity for any motivated individual. Start&Code improves both the employability of young people who have had difficulty finding jobs & the integration of refugees in the Grand Duchy.
