Cohort 1 · Graduation
At the hybrid graduation meetup, graduates showcase their projects to employers and industry professionals, the Top 3 Graduates and internship recipients are announced, and the next cohort officially opens.
Built to translate your existing work experience into QA-ready skills, and to prove that translation to hiring managers.
Switch To Software Testing is for the professional who already has a career and does not intend to restart at the bottom. Marketers, teachers, support leads, accountants, operations staff: the experience you already carry is treated as an asset, and a large part of the work is learning to translate it into language a QA hiring manager values.
The technical spine is complete and unabridged. You cover test design, defect reporting, tooling, API testing and exploratory work to the same standard as any other foundation cohort, delivered in a rhythm designed around people who still have a job.
Choose the recorded track for maximum flexibility or the live track to add the weekly live review class with your named mentor. Both end in a defended project, a certificate and a report card.
Where you already fit. Mapping your current work to the quality function.
Project: A written experience translation map, reviewed by your mentor.

Project: A complete test plan and suite for an assigned product area.
Working inside the tools your future team already uses.
Project: A managed test run with logged and triaged defects.
The layer that separates a confident tester from a screen clicker.

Converting the programme into interviews and offers.
