Applications open for new coding programme

42 Abu Dhabi

42 Abu Dhabi leverages its lucrative partner network to offer internships and job opportunities to students

42 Abu Dhabi, the UAE capital’s innovative and disruptive coding school that provides a unique peer-to-peer, gamified learning methodology, has opened applications for candidates to register and join its upcoming intense coding boot camp called ‘Piscine’, which will be held on the 23 October.

Students who succeed in the Piscine will join the school and become part of Generation 42 Abu Dhabi, to play a key role in driving the Emirate’s digital transformation and shaping its tech landscape.

The Piscine, derived from the French word for “swimming pool,” is an intense and immersive 25-day boot camp that tests candidates’ computer programming skills as well as their drive, perseverance, and devotion towards it. It is the final stage in the application process to 42 Abu Dhabi’s program.

Potential applicants who are interested in joining the upcoming ‘Piscine’ may visit 42 Abu Dhabi’s official website, where they will have to complete 42 Abu Dhabi’s pre-selection ‘Game’ – an online assessment which evaluates cognitive capacity via logic and memory tests.

They will also have to attend an in-person check-in discovery session to be briefed on the Piscine and the learning methodology. Once the candidates successfully pass the Piscine, they will be able to join 42 Abu Dhabi’s coding program and start their exceptional learning journey.
