What if to become a web developer, you go back to school for a few months? This is what O’clock offers with its telepresential web developer training. Complete, serious and particularly well supervised training.
With an average annual salary fluctuating between 34,000 to 40,000 euros for a beginner, becoming a web developer is the royal road to retraining. Not only is the sector actively recruiting, but in addition companies consider less the diploma than the skills of the candidates, via tests, during interviews. Finding the right training to become a web developer is therefore opening the doors to a promising professional future.
Web development veterans at the helm
However, training as a web developer is not easy. Agree, there are many MOOCs, video packs or sites specializing in self-study. But not everyone has the rigor or motivation to learn everything on their own. And when you come up against a difficulty, it is not easy to ask questions to specialists.
This is where O’clock comes in. O’clock is a training organization made up of former web developers passionate about teaching. They are veterans of web development who know both the business itself and the trends in the professional environment.
Above all, O’clock considers that a good training in web development requires several months of teaching, exercises and follow-up from a trainer who knows his subject well. This is the first particularity of the O’clock training method: it is a real online school.
Real courses and telepresence to motivate yourself
Once you are registered for development training, the courses are taken in the form of telepresential. They therefore take place at fixed times (between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m.) and are led by a trainer — an experienced web developer — with a group of students. These courses are not passive: students can speak, ask questions via chat or answer surveys.
No question of using Google Meet or Zoom. O’clock has developed its own broadcasting platform. It does not require you to have your camera on all the time and allows you to view replays if necessary. These collective lessons in virtual class then systematically conclude with exercises.
These are quizzes for the validation of theoretical knowledge and practical exercises (games, projects or websites to be assembled from scratch) to encourage practice but also collaboration between students. Students who can also ask teachers for help during the week or communicate with each other to help each other on weekends.
O’clock has gone even further to promote the integration and inclusiveness of all its students. Real-time subtitles accompany the talks and some classes can have a sign language interpreter. And in the case of an exercise requiring computing power, O’clock gives its students access to a virtual office to work with a powerful machine from the cloud.
From 3 to 16 months of training and work-study in addition
The quality of supervision is at the heart of the training provided by this virtual school. These are numerous and varied, but above all adapted to the demands of companies. The duration of the training varies from 3 to 16 months depending on the languages covered… Or your professional project. Because O’clock also offers work-study training.
In general, for a complete beginner, it takes 6 months of training to learn the most common languages and platforms: HTML and CSS, PHP, JavaScript, React, WordPress and many others. The training of web developer allows to tame all these notions and ends with a specialization in a technology (Symfony, React or WordPress).
A follow-up that goes as far as job search
O’clock is well aware that it is her students who will then represent her in companies. The level and skills of its students are ultimately its best advertisement. This is why O’clock organizes workshops at the end of the training to better promote your CV or build your LinkedIn page.
A follow-up that ranges from training in job search tools, advice for creating CVs, putting you in touch with a network of partner companies and up to expert advice on interviews and job negotiation. contract and salary.
Many ways to finance your training
These 6 months of training (or 798 hours of lessons) have a cost. Again, O’clock has a dedicated team to find funding for your training. Because the last peculiarity of the O’clock school is to deliver a level 5 professional title, i.e. the equivalent of a bac +2 at the end of the training.
This professional title makes it possible to benefit from several financial aid from organizations such as the (now famous) CPF, Agefiph or even the AIF. Nearly three-quarters of students now benefit from total or partial aid to pay for their training.
O’clock is a rigorous, serious training center that is sincerely interested in the future of its students. More than a MOOC or a simple training video, this is one of the most solid training courses that can be found in web development today.
To find out more about O’clock, visit the school’s official website or its YouTube channel. This includes both the students’ end-of-year projects, FAQs and the presentation of the trainers.
O’clock also regularly organizes lives. One of the last ones is devoted to current events at the school and its future projects in terms of training, but also to answer questions that potential and future students may have.
