Funded Bootcamps: register your interest

We are working to offer free places, funded by the government, for eligible adults. Register now: we will check your eligibility and tell you about the next start date. Funded places depend on government funding. We’ll confirm your options before you commit to anything.

Skills Bootcamps are short, intensive courses, of up to 16 weeks, for adults. They are designed with employers to help you get a new job, take on a bigger role or grow your own business. They are paid for by the government and run locally. In London, they are run by the Mayor of London (the GLA).

At Fasttrack, our planned funded bootcamps are:

• taught live by our tutors, in small groups, in Kilburn or online
• practical: you build real projects for a portfolio you can show employers
• career-focused: CV help and interview practice

• Career changers who want a first job in tech
• Jobseekers who want in-demand digital skills
• People already working who want to move into a digital or AI role
• Self-employed people who want to use the web and AI in their business
• Employers who want to train existing staff (see “Employers” below)

No coding experience is needed for the web development bootcamp. You do need basic computer skills, and the time to attend almost every session.

Each funder sets its own rules, and we will check them with you. For publicly funded bootcamps, you will usually need to:

• be aged 19 or over (the funder sets the exact age date)
• have the right to work in the UK
• meet the residency rules (usually living in the UK for the last 3 years, with some exceptions)
• live in the area of the funder
• be able to attend at least 80% of the sessions, which is the usual completion rule

Not sure where you stand? Funded places depend on the funder and your local area. You can still learn with us online. Register anyway and we will tell you your options.

You will never be charged for a funded place, its materials or its exams. If you have an extra need, such as a disability or a learning difficulty, tell us and we will talk about support.

Course titles, levels and hours are planned and may change once funding is confirmed.

Choose daytime or evening classes. Both are taught in Kilburn, London (2 Iverson Road, NW6 2HE) and live online, so you can join from anywhere.

Provisional start dates: 27 April 2027 and 14 September 2027. A shorter, more intensive daytime cohort may start on 12 January 2027 if funding is confirmed in time. See Timetables and start dates for the full list.

All classes are group classes. We do not offer one-to-one courses.
