Overview
What's included
In this introductory module, you’ll meet with your mentor for this Virtual Taster Course, Martin Abberly, Cloud Platforming Degree Apprentice at Barclays! Your mentor will provide an introduction to who they are and their background, and they’ll also give you some valuable tips for a career in web development - so stay switched on and listen carefully.
Now that you’ve been introduced to your mentor and have some context for the activity, it’s time to unlock the project brief! Your mentor will brief you on your project and give you all the information you need to complete the task.
Once you’re happy and have submitted your answers, it’s time to assess how you’ve done! Your mentor will go over their recommendations, and you’ll also be able to download their model answer to compare the work to your own work. By the end of this Virtual Taster Course, you’ll have had a real glimpse into the world of web development!
Yes, you can sign up to multiple programmes with us. The live talks will be available as recordings, so you can catch up on any potential clashes.
Most of our programmes require students to be in school/college. Some programmes require students to be based in specific regions of the UK, this is stipulated by the organisations themselves, and is not defined by Springpod.
However, the ages mentioned on our programmes are more of a guideline than a strict limit. As such, we more than welcome older students to apply as well!
You will receive a certificate on completion of your programme. It will be made available to download whenever your programme is marked as complete.
