What is European Tech School?

Does ETS have an official accreditation?

NO. We are not officially accredited by any institution or government agency. And we are proud of it. We strongly believe that accreditation constrains flexibility, leading to outdated learnings, curricular stagnation and inefficient programs.

Will I receive a certificate upon completion of the Program?

Yes. Once you complete the assignments and pass all the tests, you’ll receive your certificate. Then you can add it to your LinkedIn profile and resume. It will strengthen your professional profile.

How do I apply to ETS?

Our application process is made up of 2 steps:

How do you reconcile the knowledge gap between students with different levels?

Firstly, the goal of our admissions process is to select a cohort that will be able to move more or less at the same pace. Secondly, completing the pre-work is important to make sure that everyone has the same foundational knowledge. That being said, some people will move faster than others, but that's OK!

How many students are there usually per class?

The general idea is that students are grouped together at the beginning of their program, with each cohort usually consisting of 20-30 graduate students, and those groups will take the same classes and work together all the way through to receiving their certificate.

How much should I pay to book my spot in the program?
