Got questions? We’ve got answers
How to start learning at Mate academy?
For the full-time course, just send in your application and take the entrance test — a design quiz for UI/UX or a logic test for other tracks. After that, you can book a quick interview with our manager. We’ll chat about your experience, your interest in tech, and whether this format works for you. There’ll also be a few English questions, and, of course, we’ll answer anything you’re curious about.
For the flexible course, it’s even simpler: submit your application, and we’ll reach out to you. On the call, we’ll walk you through all the details and help you choose the right track. Once you make the payment, you’re good to go and can start learning right away!
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.
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 do I choose a career path?
Will I get a certificate after the course?
Yes, of course! Over 5000 Mate graduates are already using their certificates to showcase their skills on LinkedIn and other social media.
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.
Can I combine full-time studies with work or university?
The honest answer — better not. Classes run on weekdays from 10 AM to 6 PM, and daily focus and attendance are key to success. Balancing it with work usually leads to burnout and missed lessons.
Our advice:
– If you’re currently working, choose the next available group when you can fully commit.
– Or consider our flexible learning format instead
