Who it is for

Vantage is for adults aged 18 to 50 who want to move into tech or go further in it. Groups are kept small so everyone gets time, and you don't need a coding background.

Jobseekers and recent graduates

Find the work, and give employers clear evidence of what you can do.

A CV tells an employer what you've studied or where you've worked. A project that's live online shows what you can do, and it gives an interviewer something concrete to ask you about.

You leave the workshop with one, and with your CV, portfolio and LinkedIn profile rewritten around it, so a recruiter can see what you're capable of in the first few seconds.

Career developers and switchers

Go further in tech, or move into it, without going back to university for another three years.

If you're changing career you already have the part that takes longest to learn: years of knowing how a sector works and what the people in it need. The workshop starts there, finding where those skills fit in tech.

Then it puts the AI tools in your hands to develop an idea from them. For a longer route, the one to one intensive and the three month apprenticeship pick up where the workshop stops.

Business people and founders

Get on top of the tech side of what you run, and meet people doing the same thing.

The useful question for a business is what these tools can do for it: a website that takes orders, a booking app, a desk that drafts replies to enquiries from your own price list. Those are the kind of projects people develop over the two days.

We also cover the UK funding routes open to a new idea, and the room is full of people working out the same questions for their own work.
