Got questions? We’ve got answers
How do full-time and flexible formats differ?
In the full-time schedule, you study online from 9 AM to 6 PM, Monday to Friday. You’ll attend webinars, do practical tasks, and get help from mentors. There are group video calls four times a week in the afternoon. This intense schedule is not good if you want to work at the same time.
The flexible schedule lets you learn at your own pace. You decide when and how many hours to study. Mentors are available to help you, and you can chat and join video calls with classmates. Plus, you get lifetime access to the course, so you can learn whenever you want.
Can I fit studying at Mate with other activities?
In the flexible format, you can balance your studies with work or school. You set your own pace and receive support from our mentors throughout the course.
In the full-time format, it’s hard to combine studies with work or school due to its intensity. You’ll need to fully commit, studying from 9 am to 6 pm, Monday to Friday.
Will I get a certificate upon completion?
Sure! After finishing our course, you'll get a certificate. More than 4,500 of our graduates use it to show their skills on LinkedIn and other social media. But our main focus is helping you find a job, and we'll do everything we can to support you in that.
How do I choose a profession?
Do I need math or tech background to enroll?
No, you don’t need math or a technical background to enroll. In fact, 9 out of 10 Mate students come from non-technical backgrounds. Our job is to teach you the skills you need and help you land a job in tech.
How do I enroll?
To enroll in the full-time course, start by filling out an application and taking a short logic test with 15 questions. If your English level is below Pre-intermediate, we'll ask you to make a short video about yourself. Once we check that your English is good enough for learning, you can move on with your enrollment and set up an interview with our manager.
For the flexible course, just send an application. Our manager will reach out to explain the course details and help you pick the best option. You’ll get access to the course right after you pay.
Are there any age limits for this course?
You can apply for the full-time course starting at age 16 with your parents' permission. For the flexible course, you can begin if you’re at least 15 years old.
The employment guarantee applies if you reach the legal working age in your country by the time you finish the course.
How are you so sure that l'll find a job?
For over 10 years, we’ve been helping people kickstart their tech careers — and we’ve gotten pretty good at it.
Our courses are built around what companies actually want, with tons of hands-on practice to get you job-ready. And you’re never on your own — we’ll guide you every step of the way, from polishing your resume to nailing your interviews.
The best part? 80% of our grads land a tech job just a few months after finishing the course.
How does money-back guarantee work?
For full-time graduates, you only start paying for your education after finding a tech job. The payment is 12% of your net salary for 36 months. If you don’t get a job, you pay nothing.
If you finish the flexible course, actively search for a job with our support for 16 weeks, and don't receive any offers, you can get a full refund.
What's the schedule on full-time?
The full-time schedule combines theory lessons, practice, and Q&A sessions:
9:00 AM - 10:00 AM — Algorithms 10:00 AM - 11:30 AM — Theory 11:30 AM - 12:30 PM — Break 12:30 PM - 2:00 PM — Practice 2:00 PM - 2:30 PM — Q&A session 2:30 PM - 5:00 PM — Practice 5:00 PM - 6:00 PM — Q&A session
What jobs can I get after finishing the course?
Graduates of the Fullstack developer course often land their first jobs in positions such as Frontend developer, Frontend (Angular) developer, Frontend (HTML, CSS, JS) developer, Vue developer, React developer, or React Native developer.
Beyond that, you can also become a Fullstack developer, Fullstack (Vue) developer, Fullstack (Angular) developer, Fullstack (React) developer, or a Node.js developer.
What will I be able to do after completing the Fullstack developer courses?
The easiest way to the profession of Full-stack developer is courses where you can create full-fledged web applications from scratch. Our graduates know how to develop a user interface, configure the server part, work with databases, create and connect APIs, write understandable and structured code.
Why is it better to learn Full-stack with mentors and not on your own?
Studying with mentors will significantly speed up your progress. There is tons of information online, but it's easier than you think to get lost in it. That is why we offer a clear program, support and explanations of complex topics. Mentors will help you avoid mistakes, provide feedback and prepare you for real work in a team.
How to master the profession of Full-Stack Developer from scratch?
Our Fullstack course helps you learn a new industry from scratch. The program starts with the basics — learning JavaScript, HTML, CSS, terminals, frameworks, and databases. We built the Full-Stack course in such a way that you move step by step to more complex topics. Practice on real projects is another advantage offered by our Fullstack courses. You consolidate knowledge, form a portfolio, and with this you are already preparing for employment. The final stage is preparation for the interview and receiving an offer.
What should a computer be for studying Full-Stack online courses?
To complete the Full-Stack Developer course, you need a computer with a processor no lower than Intel i5, 8 GB of RAM and an SSD drive. It is recommended to use Windows 10/11, macOS or any modern Linux distribution.
Advantages of the Full-stack developer profession
Full-stack courses are an opportunity to master a universal role in the world of development, which opens a maximum of ways. You can work remotely - all you need is a laptop and Internet access. The demand for specialists is consistently high: startups, product companies and outsourcers are looking for them. Already at the start, you can apply for a salary of $800-1,200, and with experience, you can go to $2,000+. The acquired skills are universal: you can work with both frontend and backend — this is valuable for any team. In addition, the knowledge provided by the Full-stack course allows you to launch your own projects.
Career prospects after the Full-stack developer course
Full-stack courses open the way to all areas of development. After training, you will be able to start as a Junior and participate in the development of functional products: design the interface, implement logic on the front end, create the server part and much more. Thanks to the ownership of the full stack, you will quickly become an indispensable member of the team, who can be involved in both the frontend and the backend. And later there will be an opportunity to choose a specialization — for example, delve into React or Node.js and become a strong specialist in a specific area. In addition, Full-stack courses will allow you to work for foreign companies.
Who are the Full-stack developer online courses suitable for?
This is a profession for those who want to fully understand how websites and applications work. The Fullstack course will be useful if you want to enter IT from scratch. In Mate you will find a clear full-stack course with practice from the first weeks. This path is suitable for people with analytical thinking who like logic, structure and want to see the result of their work in action. If you have been interested in technology for a long time, but could not find an entry point, it is here. Also, the Full-stack developer course is an opportunity to take on a sought-after role with the ability to work remotely or in the office. It is not a narrow specialization - the training provides a deep understanding of the frontend, backend and architecture of the product.
How is training at the Full-Stack Developer course?
You can take the Full-Stack course in two formats: free with a full training day or paid with the opportunity to study at a convenient time. Training involves the study of Front-end and Back-end technologies and practical cases. How do Full-Stack courses work for you: you have access to educational modules and platform functionality; master the theory at webinars; practice on real cases; you receive regular feedback from the mentor. Also, our Fullstack course helps to create a resume, form a portfolio and prepare for an interview. Ultimately, our Full-Stack Developer courses will help you get a Junior position in this field.
