Tuition-free cohort-based software developer training
Ada Developers Academy offers a tuition-free intensive program for women and gender-diverse people with a structured curriculum and strong industry connections. Unlike Recurse Center's open self-directed retreats, Ada follows a fixed schedule and targets specific demographics. It provides an alternative for those wanting RC's inclusive values paired with more guided technical training.
Ada Developers Academy is a nonprofit offering cohort-based software developer training that prioritizes community over competition. It runs tuition-free immersive programs designed to remove barriers and cultivate diverse talent for tech careers. The organization reports 13+ years of cohort-based learning, 1200+ graduates, a 96% graduation rate, and a 201% average post-graduation salary change.
