The Sparkbox Apprenticeship is loosely separated into three phases. Completing a phase provides a clear checkpoint for review, reflection, and closure.
Phase one explores the essential software toolset and uses them to establish proficiency regarding the foundations of software development through practical challenges.
During Phase two, developers work with HTML and CSS to implement a product card layout.
In Phase three, developers have the opportunity to put their newly acquired skills to good use building a working app via a fully agile process with project management, design, and even an internal "client."
Sparkbox considers our apprenticeship the pathway to hiring inexperienced developers. While there is no guarantee, our goal for the apprenticeship is to prepare individuals for a development career at Sparkbox. For those who are not a match or would like to find a position outside Sparkbox, we will make guidance and support available to all apprentices for interviews, resumes, cover letters, portfolio design, etc.
