We Got Coders

Course Description:

Completely immerse yourself in to learning how to code in 12 weeks at our luxury code retreat.

Tomorrow’s web developers will be able to learn how to code in a unique, waterside residence just 30 minutes from London, eliminating the daily rat race that London’s commuters face. With over 8,500 square feet of indoor space there are multiple break out rooms for trainees to relax and work in. On the edge of the Lea Valley with protected wildlife preserves and stunning landscaped gardens trainees will have the space and tranquility to completely immerse themselves without distraction. Trainees will stay in a property renovated to a pristine standard with state of the art facilities including programmable lighting, a home cinema with surround sound system, and games room. The accommodation enjoys views over the gardens.

Dan Garland of We Got Coders, said: “We wanted to create an environment that is more conducive to learning without the stress and potential burnout associated with intensive learn to code programmes. We chose this location because it is strategically located between London’s Silicon Roundabout and Cambridge’s Silicon Fen and hope to leverage this to our trainees’ advantage. The tranquil and beautiful setting means trainees can truly immerse themselves in to learning to code and find their creative flow.”
