SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 19, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Holberton School, a project-based college alternative educating the next generation of software engineers today announced the opening of a new campus in Ecuador. This opening brings Holberton School\u2019s total campus count to 15 worldwide, spanning five continents and eight countries.<\/p>\n

Holberton School comes to Ecuador in alliance with BuenTrip Hub, the local incubator for technology startups. According to BuenTrip\u2019s Radar Tech Startup study<\/a>, 250 Ecuadorian startups are increasingly looking for highly trained software engineers to guarantee their business growth. The International Labor Organization (ILO) recently reported<\/a> that e-commerce, software development, and IoT were the top industries for Ecuador\u2019s job creation.<\/p>\n

Carmen de la Cerda, director of BuenTrip Hub, says, “Holberton will provide Ecuador students with world-class training. Access to this knowledge and skillset is indispensable because it will empower our local talent, opening doors for them to become technologists and innovators.”<\/p>\n

Holberton School provides Silicon Valley-grade full-stack software engineering training through its full-time one and two-year programs. Students acquire practical skills and an understanding of theory through project-based and peer-based learning. Students from all backgrounds have secured software engineering jobs at top-tier employers, including MercadoLibre, Google, Rappi, and Apple.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe number of Ecuador tech startups tripled in the last two years, but the lack of tech talent could drastically slow their growth,\u201d says Holberton Co-founder and President Sylvain Kalache. \u201cWe are excited to be part of the solution by bringing our Silicon Valley-grade education to Ecuador.\u201d<\/p>\n

To help make Holberton\u2019s Silicon Valley-grade education financially accessible, tuition can be paid either upfront or in monthly payments.<\/p>\n

Holberton School Ecuador\u2019s first cohort will begin in January 2021, synchronizing with the school\u2019s network of campuses located in North and South America, Europe, Africa, and Asia. The virtual campus will provide its education entirely online. Applications are open to individuals over the age of 18 coming from any educational background.
