How learning works at Turing College
Turing College offers two learning models: flexible asynchronous learning for self-payers and intensive synchronous training with government funding in Germany. Both use practical sprints and real-world projects; the government-funded programme offers more 1:1 mentor support and synchronous learning supervision.

Learning 📚
The asynchronous model is flexible, on-demand learning built for busy professionals. You work through practical sprints on the online platform and schedule mentor support when you need it.
The curriculum is organised into practical sprints that combine learning, project work and feedback.
Pay for skills, not content
We cut through the noise of bootcamps by providing you with real-life skills by maximizing hours of practice and personal feedback.
The programmes use curated and custom-created material. Our content teams assemble the curriculum from carefully selected top resources on the web and update it regularly. Much of the content is not unique, but it works best.
Learn by teaching others
Our teaching prioritizes the kind of practical skills you need to solve problems as a tech professional. And to ensure that your skills are as solid as they can be, we’ll have you review the work of junior students.
Why do we do this? Because only when you know you have to teach others, do you really learn your subject inside out. This theory even has a name - the Protégé Effect.
Flexible learning around your work
Access the platform on demand and organise your weekly study time around work and other commitments. Live support happens at scheduled stand-ups, open sessions and 1:1 reviews.
Join a supportive community
Ask for help on demand through scheduled stand-ups, open sessions and 1:1 reviews. The wider learner community remains available for questions, accountability and peer exchange.
Community support complements the mentor guidance included in your selected learning model.
You will get:
Community chat
Stand-ups
Open sessions
Gain real-world work experience
Apply each sprint to a practical industry problem, then schedule project feedback and 1:1 reviews. The format mirrors how distributed tech teams ask for input, improve work and ship.
Our learning method replicates the real-world tech team experience by providing personalized feedback on projects every week from senior colleagues and managers.
On top of technical feedback and guidance, you get 1on1 coaching aimed at helping you to become a better professional. No other online tech school offers such a model.
Junior Team Leads (JTLs)
Our top learners step up as Junior Team Leads, taking on leadership roles to support others. They know exactly what it’s like to be in your shoes and are here to provide day-to-day guidance, detailed feedback, and practical advice. JTLs help you move forward faster, stay motivated and make sure you’re never stuck wondering what to do next. They also earn scholarships for taking on these responsibilities.
Senior Team Leads (STLs)
Senior Team Leads are experienced professionals from companies such as IBM, Vinted and Nord Security. They guide your learning through group meetings, personalised feedback and 1:1 project reviews, helping you build skills that matter in real work.
Our mentors bring experience from organisations and universities including:
These organisations and institutions have no institutional affiliation or official partnership with Turing College.
Career coach
Our Career Coaches help you fine-tune your job search strategy—from personalizing your resume and portfolio to sharpening your interview skills. They’re here to make sure you’re fully prepared to land your dream job in tech.
Projects 📋
Build portfolio projects as you move through your programme’s practical sprints. You can organise the work flexibly and request feedback through scheduled reviews.
Each project starts from a practical challenge rather than an isolated academic exercise. You finish with work you can explain, demonstrate and improve.

Project reviews 🔍
Schedule 1:1 reviews when your project is ready and use the feedback to strengthen the work before moving on. Reviews provide the on-demand expert checkpoint in the flexible model.
The review process mirrors professional feedback: explain your decisions, respond to questions and improve the project using specific criteria.
- 1
Complete the project
Most sprints require submitting a project. You complete practical work that simulates a real professional situation and shows you can apply theory on the job. - 2
Present your approach in a 1:1 review
You present in a live 1:1 online session with an experienced mentor — the Senior Team Lead (STL). - 3
Receive feedback against clear criteria
The STL gives detailed, personalised feedback using standardised review criteria. - 4
Apply the feedback and continue
The STL decides whether you are ready for the next sprint. This mastery-based approach ensures you can translate concepts into real working competence.
