When the world changes, education changes too. With this phrase, we will start this article to draw attention to one of the most interesting degrees that have emerged today: the Nanodegree, which is nothing more than a training directed towards the job market focused on practical skills. We can say that a nanodegree is the future of specialization courses.
The term was created by the online learning platform Udacity, a startup from Silicon Valley that started operating in Brazil in 2016, but they are not the only ones offering this possibility of online training. The so-called MOOCs – Massive Open Online Courses – are available from various platforms.
Unlike traditional education, where you spend 4 years studying useful subjects and others not so much, the proposal of the Nanodegree is that the student only learns skills that are highly valued in the market in a shorter time.
Compared to traditional education, this type of training has a better cost-benefit ratio, and most of these types of training are online, which practically allows you to attend classes according to your availability, and instead of receiving a diploma, you receive a certificate.
Does the market recognize this type of training?
In the past, companies only valued traditional qualifications, but that is a thing of the past, especially in the technology field. Nowadays, managers of large companies understand that knowledge and learning are not just confined to books or academic institutions.
In recent years, there has been significant growth in these types of short trainings, and the contractors themselves are valuing this type of experience on resumes.
Since the Nanodegree is project-based, the student ends up completing the course with a complete portfolio, representing all the skills they acquired during the program, becoming a tool to showcase all their learning to the job market.
Is Hcode Lab a Nanodegree?
Yes. Our program for developers was designed for the student to have an immersive experience in a differentiated training completely thought out for the formation of high-performance professionals.
They learn from the basics to advanced all the most required skills in the development market. The idea is that by the end of the program, the student has a solid foundation and practical knowledge that will make them a true specialist capable of developing any type of work related to the field. The learning is not just theoretical but is also applied in the everyday work.
Analyzing this from the companies' perspective, there is nothing better than a professional with a resume with this profile. A specialist who has the necessary skills to perform the function reduces the need for adaptation and training of the professional, generating lower costs for the company.
