THE FUTURE:

Qwasar: A Modern World of Learning

Welcome to a new world of learning, completely different from the last 200 years. We’ve redesigned the learning experience, aligned it to what you need to succeed today, and have created a learning community.

Learning skills is tough, but it’s what we need in today’s world. Check out the science behind our platform and what it’s like to learn at Qwasar.

Join a Great Learning Community

Our learning community is focused on growth, personal development, accountability, and meaningful contributions. We are made up of learners from a wide variety of backgrounds and places, unified by code and online education. We are hackers, developers, engineers and thinkers. We laugh, learn, and grow with one another through mentorship and support. Within the community, there are small cohorts, guardians to lead and guide students, and meetings to keep you accountable for your progress.

“I have attended programs previously built by the Qwasar founders. There is no doubt they will train you to the Silicon Valley standard.”

I know Kwame and Gaëtan well and attended a program they built in California. They know how to design a program to Silicon Valley standards and it has been an important step that helped me get to where I am today.

“I have a career in the Tech Industry thanks to the educational model that Qwasar's leadership team has built. They have created an inclusive and accessible software engineering program making it possible for anyone to enter the tech industry and succeed without the burden of college loan debt. That to me is creating social equity.”

"I interviewed today a lady who is a teacher in primary/elementary, she has to manage her family, her work, and she’s doing Qwasar. She just finished Qwasar’s blockchain project after starting in April (so in 3 months she’s coded printf, LS, tar, and readline). She answered perfectly about linked lists, pointers - she’s impressive."

"All the projects are easy once you finish them. At the beginning you think omg how am I going to do this. But once you’re done you look back and say easy I can do that. You just have to keep pushing."

"I think my googling skills got better; what keywords to search and get the answers. I’m bored at home, so I learned going to Qwasar makes my stress go away. It’s really helped me a lot."

"You guys do an amazing job developing and maintaining the platform. Projects in Season 1 are really fun (thumbs up)"
