FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Check out answers to some of the most commonly asked questions about the Pursuit Fellowship.

What kind of certificate do I get from Pursuit?

One of the major benefits to the tech industry is that you do not need certifications to get hired. Instead of working towards getting a certificate, you’ll be working towards getting a job. The goal of the Pursuit Fellowship is to help you gain a job and build your career. That’s why the Pursuit Fellowship is skills-based and project-focused. By the time you’re ready to start applying to jobs, you’ll have a personal website and a project portfolio that highlight your technical skills.

Is the Pursuit Fellowship free until I get a job?

There are no upfront costs to the Pursuit Fellowship. You pay nothing into the Pursuit Bond until you get a job making $50k/year or more. We call that the Pursuit Bond Income Share Agreement.

What is the time commitment for the Pursuit Core Program?

The in-class schedule is as follows:

  • Daytime Program: Mon–Wed from 10 AM – 1 PM, and Thu-Fri from 10 AM – 6 PM
  • Nights & Weekends Program: Mon–Wed from 7 PM – 10 PM, and Sat-Sun from 10 AM – 6 PM

In addition, all Fellows are expected to commit 20 additional hours of self-study outside of the classroom. While class is 25 hours / week, the full commitment is closer to 45+ to take into account homework, review, self-study, and external networking.
