What our graduates say
FAQ
Which programs are fully funded by the German government (100% free)?
All of our programs are fully funded by the German government, and certified by the Arbeitsagentur. You can use an AVGS voucher to cover the cost of the Orientation course or a Bildungsgutschein to participate in any of our full programs.
What does career support look like after completing the course?
Do I need an academic degree or prior knowledge to apply?
No. No prior knowledge in a particular field of study is required to apply. We’ve learned that this is not necessarily the best indicator of success and instead we look for candidates who are motivated, with grit, determination, and aptitude, regardless of previous knowledge or experience. However, in order to excel in Masterschool’s programs, you will need basic computer literacy skills, and at least a high school level of mathematics, be comfortable learning in English and be comfortable working in a digital environment with technical tools and with numbers.
Are the studies in English or German?
We offer courses both in English and in German, whichever you prefer.
During our full program, we offer language course in addition to your technical training, at no extra charge – 200 hours of language instruction, in English or German. This is a great way to improve your employability!

You will acquire hands-on experience that makes you job-ready, and you’ll graduate with an industry-relevant portfolio that will impress potential employers.
Learn from industry experts
Because you are learning from accomplished experts who work in the industry today and because our curriculum is constantly being updated in response to the latest trends and patterns in the workforce, our programs teach you what you really need to know to get a job in tech – and leave out what you don’t.
Online, flexible schedule
Our programs are online and flexible, allowing students to study at their preferred time. Although flexible, they are intensive enough to prepare students well for their new career and get them job-ready in a relatively short amount of time.
We offer extra help and private sessions with academic instructors for students who need a bit more support.
Live classes
Aside from self-paced learning, coding exercises or labs, quizzes, and projects, each program offers weekly live lectures with today’s experts. Live lectures allow students to learn interactively, ask questions in real time, and study with a real class. Live sessions are always recorded and available for those who prefer learning alone or are unable to attend the session live.
24/7 support
Masterschool is designed with layers of support so that you never feel alone or overwhelmed. Each program offers live sessions, study halls, and active chatrooms so that you are always able to ask academic questions in real time. Whether it’s your peers, instructors, or your Mentor, there is always someone to turn to for help.
1:1 mentoring
Throughout your time at Masterschool, you will be mentored by experienced industry experts, with regular 1:1 meetings. These industry professionals have years of experience and will be able to guide you both academically and professionally. During the Career Accelerator, you will share your interview experiences and get personalized feedback and tips from your mentor.

We prepare you for both types of interviews with mock questions and interview simulations, so you feel comfortable and confident wowing them with your skills.

FAQ: Career support
We do everything necessary to help you find a job. While we will help you find job opportunities and network, we will not place you in a job.
Our career support includes workshops, personal mentorship, global hiring partners, which include the world’s best tech companies, and much more.
Even after you’re hired, we will continue to support you. If you need help with finding a new job, a salary negotiation, asking for a promotion or anything else, we are here to help you. Our ultimate goal is that you continue to succeed beyond your first job in tech, and we see ourselves as long term partners.
It depends on the determination and efforts each student dedicates to his or her job search, but most of our students generally secure jobs within weeks or months after they begin their job search. We will support you in your job search no matter how long it takes and are happy to assist you in the future if you are looking to change jobs.
In our experience, students who put their efforts in continuing to develop professionally during the Career Accelerator program tend to shine brighter during the job-hunting process.
We have already helped hundreds of talented, motivated graduates find new careers in leading tech companies all over the world. However, finding your first job in tech is hard, and you will need to work hard to make it happen. If you are ready to dedicate the time and effort and build a new career in tech, we truly believe Masterschool is the best way to get you there, and get you there quickly.
Although we cannot place you in a job ourselves, we’re dedicated to helping you succeed and finding a new role you love no matter how long it takes, as long as you are committed to putting in the hard work.
