42, much more than programming
42 breaks with all the paradigms of education because, in 42, students are the protagonists of their own learning (step by step and free of charge).
What makes the 42 method differentIt is a learning model that completely breaks with the traditional educational model
- They are programming campuses that open the door to peer-to-peer training, without teachers, books or classes.
- It is a free method open to people over 18 years of age, with no prior technical knowledge or requirements.
- It is a model aimed at training both in digital skills, the most in-demand skills in today’s job market, and in ‘transversal skills’ such as resilience and adaptation to change, frustration tolerance, creativity and, above all, teamwork, among many others.
- It ensures 100% employability for all students who pass the so-called ‘common core’, the first seven levels of the practical training itinerary of 42.
- Our 42 campuses in Madrid, Barcelona, Malaga and Urduliz offer the necessary tools to face all the technological changes that any person faces throughout their career. At 42 you ‘learn to learn’ by developing the ability to adapt and find solutions to problems based on current knowledge and tools.
- Not only do you learn programming, cybersecurity, design, blockchain, etc., but also communication, leadership, frustration tolerance, teamwork…
