Digital Career Institute (DCI) is a 12-month long coding bootcamp based in Germany with campuses in Berlin, Düsseldorf, Hamburg and Leipzig. The courses are fully immersive and cover entry-level basics in stack HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. DCI also specialize in technologies like Angular, Node.js, and Databases. DCI was launched as an initiative to integrate refugees into the growing IT industry. Today it is committed to training anyone who wants to pursue a tech career. In addition to coding languages, students will master best practices on platforms like GitHub. They will learn agile project management and development methodologies like SCRUM.
DCI is intended to help untrained individuals attain digital jobs, and so the application process assumes that candidates have no prior coding experience. The DCI application process begins by filling out an online form. Candidates will then be contacted by education consultants from DCI to discuss further details.
Job placement training is woven into DCI’s program. Career workshops help students prepare an industry-specific resume, create an online presence, and learn techniques that will make them more attractive to potential employers. DCI also sets each graduate up with a 2-month internship in the tech field.
The 12-month course focuses on self-paced learning, project work, and teacher lead discussions and lessons. In addition to standard courses, however, students will also attend specialized sessions led by DCI alumni and top professionals who offer tips to advancing in the field. Students will also partner with a buddy who they’ll meet with at least once a week. Aligned with Digital Career Institute's core belief in helping improve opportunities for refugees, they also provide German and English language courses lead by expert instructors.

Nuova Speranza
Nuova Speranza - meine Reise zum Regenbogen.
Nuova Speranza, so mein Desktop Hintergrund und DCI Mantra, in Anlehnung an einen meiner fantastischen Lehrer mit biografischer Verbindung nach Sardinien (sentimental bewundernde Grüße an Giaco und Rami, an Gaël, Anton, Nicole, Louisa, Ash, Metin, Albert, ...).

Nuova Speranza - meine Reise zum Regenbogen.
Nuova Speranza, so mein Desktop Hintergrund und DCI Mantra, in Anlehnung an einen meiner fantastischen Lehrer mit biografischer Verbindung nach Sardinien (sentimental bewundernde Grüße an Giaco und Rami, an Gaël, Anton, Nicole, Louisa, Ash, Metin, Albert, ...). Denn genau DAS beschreibt umfassend auf das Maximum reduziert in zwei Worten meine durchgehend/ausnahmslos positive Erfahrung mit diesem auf so vielfältige Weise großartigen Bildungsträger.
Nuova Speranza.
"Neue Hoffnung" also. Im Sinne von neuen, tragfähigen beruflichen Perspektiven, die vor meiner DCI experience schlicht nicht vorstellbar gewesen sind - und das war nur der Einstieg.
Mit Bewilligen der Fortbildung durch die Agentur gab es nach gefühlten Nanosekunden auch schon ein detailliertes Kursangebot per Mail gefolgt von einem Anruf meines DCI-Bildungsberaters Bogdan Cosma., der Kursdetails nicht nur leicht verständlich erklärte, sondern in beeindruckend liebenswürdiger Geduld aber auch jede Frage sofort kompetent beantwortete, gar anbot, man könne ihn jederzeit mit jedem Kursanliegen anrufen selbst an Wochenenden. Ein schönes Beispiel für "normative Kraft des Faktischen", solches Engagement setzt Standards, schafft Erwartungen, ist Referenz, die andere erstmal erreichen müssen. So war Bogdan ganz nebenbei Markenbotschafter für DCI, sein Verhalten ließ einiges erhoffen für den inhaltlich durchaus sportlich-ambitionierten Kurs.
Diese positive Ahnung wurde dann ein ganzes Jahr lang weit übertroffen in einer mir davor nicht vorstellbaren Weise.
Konkret bezogen auf DCI Staff: tatsächlich wären mir in durchaus abwechslungsreicher beruflicher Vita nie zuvor engagiertere Mitarbeiter:innen begegnet, die einen in jeder Form, jeder Funktion, in jedem denkbaren Kursaspekt, bei allen Schwierigkeiten bestmöglich unterstützt haben weit über die eigene Stellenbeschreibung hinaus. Genuin glaubwürdig authentisch mit Herzblut Lichtjahre über "Dienst nach Vorschrift" hinaus. Tatsächlich alle, denen ich das Privileg hatte, zu begegnen.
Sie wollen Deinen Erfolg.
Wenn Du also das tolle Privileg einer bewilligten Fortbildung im Digitalbereich hast, wirst Du einen qualifizierteren, philanthropischeren, engagierteren Bildungsträger kaum finden können.
Idee und Konzept meines Kurses fand ich ohnehin super, sie entsprechen meinen Idealen von einer knallbunten Welt der Gleichen, die in liebevollem Respekt einander wertschätzend unterstützen. Was auch sonst. So hat man schlicht mehr Spaß.
Von der Idee zur Tat: Die konkrete Umsetzung schöner Ideale in gelebten Kursalltag fand dann auch konsequent statt, es war angenehmer Spiritus Rector des täglichen Miteinanders und machte den Stress sehr vielen Lernens neuer, bisweilen komplizierter Inhalte deutlich einfacher.
Wenn auch nicht unbedingt einfach: Der Kurs insgesamt ist durchaus anstrengend und fordernd, konnte mich an Grenzen bringen, was Leben ja erst spannend macht. Grenzen finden, überwinden, sich entwickeln. Seriöse Ambition und Motivation sind unbedingt erforderlich für erfolgreiches Bestehen.
Eine tolle, manchmal schwierige, aber immer inspirierende Erfahrung mit wunderbar verschiedenen, klugen, anregenden Menschen, die ich nicht missen möchte.
Ob DU dafür geeignet bist im Sinne von "ist es meine Tasse Tee", lässt sich prima herausfinden im "Orientierungskurs" genannten Eingangsmodul von ca. 4 Wochen Dauer, in den einem verschiedene Aspekte des Web Developments näher gebracht werden. Das macht allen Beteiligten, also auch Dir, die Entscheidung leichter.
Hast Du Dich für den Kurs entschieden und qualifiziert, erwarten Dich außer dem Tsunami neuen Fachwissens über modernes Web Development, das täglich mit praktischen Übungen vertieft wird, weitere klug konzipierte, praxisorientierte Module, die Dir den Einstieg in Dein späteres berufliches Setting erleichtern.
Neben erwartbaren "how to" - Aspekten also (wie CD/Ci, git Workflow, Microservices vs. monolithic approach, Datenbankanbindungen ans selbst entworfene Frontend, Aufbau, Architektur, Gestaltung einer performant skalierbaren web application mit on demand rendered functionality etc.) noch die Vermittlung und das Üben sehr hilfreicher Softskills, die über Deinen späteren Erfolg entscheiden können. Alles im Team natürlich, wie es später auch wahrscheinlich im Job zu erwarten ist. Das Ganze spielerisch mit viel Lachen, dabei didaktisch klug wie inspirierend aufbereitet.
Schließlich war noch Erwerb oder Vertiefen von Sprachkompetenz Teil des Pflichtprogrammes, in unserem Fall Deutsch oder Englisch.
Schul- und Unibesuch sind bei mir nun schon einige Sommer her, aber ich kann mich nicht erinnern, je so komprimiert gelernt zu haben auf so vielfältige Weise, wie in diesem Kurs.
Was gab es alles zu lernen, wen alles kennenzulernen. Eine tolle Erfahrung.
Abschließend wünsche ich noch möglichst vielen Privilegierten nach mir diese sehr außergewöhnliche und schöne Gelegenheit zur Entwicklung eigenen Potentials, ihnen selbst und der Gesellschaft zum Gewinn.
Nuova Speranza – this phrase adorns my desktop background and serves as my personal mantra, inspired by one of my fantastic teachers with biographical ties to Sardinia (sending heartfelt, admiring regards to Giaco and Rami, to Gaël, Anton, Nicole, Louisa, Ash, Metin, Albert, ...). These two simple words perfectly encapsulate, in the most concise manner possible, my consistently positive experience with this exceptional educational institution, which is outstanding in so many ways.
Nuova Speranza.
In other words, "New Hope" – representing new, sustainable career opportunities that were simply unimaginable to me prior to my DCI experience. And that was just the beginning.
Upon approval of the training program by the agency, it felt like mere seconds before I received a detailed course offer via email, swiftly followed by a call from my DCI educational advisor, Bogdan Cosma. Not only did he explain the course details in a clear and comprehensible manner, but he also exhibited remarkable patience and kindness, promptly and competently answering every question. He even offered his availability for any course-related inquiries, including weekends. A wonderful example of the "normative power of the factual": such dedication sets a standard, creates expectations, and establishes a benchmark that others must first strive to match. In doing so, Bogdan became a brand ambassador for DCI, his conduct inspiring confidence in what was already shaping up to be an ambitious and challenging course.
This initial positive impression was not only fulfilled but consistently exceeded over the course of a year in ways I had never imagined.
Specifically, in terms of DCI staff: in my varied professional career, I have never encountered more dedicated individuals. Regardless of their role, every staff member I had the privilege of engaging with provided optimal support in every conceivable aspect of the course and every difficulty that arose – far beyond the scope of their job descriptions. They were genuinely, authentically committed, demonstrating a passion that extended light-years beyond mere "duty by the book."
They genuinely want your success.
If you have the privilege of approved training in the digital field, you will struggle to find a more qualified, philanthropic, or dedicated educational institution than DCI.
The idea and concept of my course already resonated deeply with me, aligning perfectly with my ideals of a vibrant, inclusive world of equals who support each other with loving respect. What else could one wish for? It simply makes life more enjoyable.
From theory to practice: The consistent implementation of these beautiful ideals into the daily course routine was a constant theme. This uplifting spiritus rector of our interactions made the stress of intensive learning – including occasionally complex new material – far more manageable.
That being said, it was not always easy: The course as a whole is quite demanding and challenging. It pushed me to my limits, which is precisely what makes life interesting. Finding boundaries, overcoming them, and evolving. Serious ambition and motivation are absolutely essential to succeed.
It was an extraordinary, sometimes difficult, but always inspiring experience with wonderfully diverse, intelligent, and engaging people I am grateful to have met.
Whether you are suited for this program – in the sense of “Is this my cup of tea?” – can be easily determined in the “Orientation Course,” an introductory module of approximately four weeks. This provides an overview of various aspects of web development, helping everyone involved – including you – make an informed decision.
If you decide to pursue and qualify for the course, you can expect not only a "tsunami" of new technical knowledge about modern web development, reinforced daily through practical exercises, but also additional well-designed, practice-oriented modules that will ease your transition into a professional setting.
In addition to the expected “how-to” aspects (such as CD/CI, Git workflow, microservices vs. monolithic architecture, connecting databases to self-designed frontends, building and structuring a scalable, high-performing web application with on-demand rendered functionality, etc.), you will also gain valuable soft skills. These are practiced extensively and can be critical to your success. Everything is, of course, team-based, as it is likely to be in your future workplace. All of this is presented in a playful, laughter-filled environment, with didactically clever and inspiring methods.
Finally, language skills were also part of the mandatory curriculum, in our case German or English.
It has been several years since my school and university days, but I cannot recall ever learning so much, so intensively, and in such a multifaceted way as I did in this course.
There was so much to learn, so many wonderful people to meet – a truly enriching experience.
In conclusion, I sincerely hope that many more fortunate individuals after me will have this unique and beautiful opportunity to develop their potential, for their own benefit and that of society.
They give you fake promises about job opportunities and support. Never before have I encountered such a toxic positivity environment. Only one programming teacher was capable of teaching effectively, while others struggled with basic coding problems. It was horrific to listen to some of the teachers who barely had English skills.

Only one programming teacher was capable of teaching effectively, while others struggled with basic coding problems. It was horrific to listen to some of the teachers who barely had English skills. After making some complaints, they would tell you that everything is fine and that you shouldn't be worried.I am writing this opinion to prevent people from making a wrong decision. Without my determination, I wouldn't be able to code now. All my peers, including myself, bought additional Udemy courses to follow best practices and acquire the knowledge that was supposed to be provided by DCI. If you want to study programming, choose a rare programming language and the best programming school.
For a long time I was really unhappy with the retail job I had. So I finally decided to step out of my comfort zone and do something completely new, learn how to code. I participated in the Web Development course of DCI in Berlin and finally found my true passion. Now I wake up every day and I am excited about what I do, which is the best feeling.

I came to DCI having no clue about coding but was eager to learn and take on new challenges on my career path. I felt really lucky at the time because I finally found a WebDev program in English and fully funded by the German Employment Agency.

I came to DCI having no clue about coding but was eager to learn and take on new challenges on my career path. I felt really lucky at the time because I finally found a WebDev program in English and fully funded by the German Employment Agency. DCI staff and especially teachers did work really hard to provide us not only an up-to-date and intensive curriculum but also a community of people who are willing to learn and to help each other. There were now and then some shortcomings with the schedule but I really appreciated the fact that the staff always put our priorities first and tried to solve any problem almost immediately. Due to the sudden change in my career, I wasn't familiar with the tech industry and struggled a bit building up my own network of developers and recruiters. However, right before my graduation, I already got an internship from the company pool of DCI, which was followed by a full-time job.
Losing my previous job, I was done with the industry and really frustrated. Once I started my course at DCI, everything changed for the positive for me. I got really enthusiastic because of the support and because I could see from the beginning the value of their course. Their curriculum is extremely well put together, especially the Organic Social Media Marketing and Paid Social Media Marketing is very helpful for my current job.

Hi, myself Lakshmi. I attended AWS/reStart course at DCI. The way it was planned is really appreciated with proper formats of technical, practical and interview related preparations as well.
I am grateful for the entire DCI team and our tutor Dr.Dominic Singaraj who explained all the concepts really well and in very interesting manner.
Ich wurde sehr gut von meiner Bildungsberaterin Michaela Schormair beraten. Ich brauchte mich nahezu um nichts kümmern und fühlte mich sehr gut aufgehoben. Die Struktur und der Ablauf bei DCI ist sehr gut organisiert und es hat Spaß gemacht, einen Kurs dort zu besuchen. Ich kann DCI nur empfehlen!

When I quit my job I was looking to improve myself and to learn a new skill that would help me change careers. While DCI has some room for improvement, I'm very happy with the content prepared for us and my biggest highlight is my teacher Bena Roberts.

She's one of the most dedicated, professional people I've encountered. She made this learning experience enriching and kept us motivated no matter what challenges came.
I do have to mention that the career success team has been quite disappointing (with the exception of Ulrike’s workshops), I really hope DCI can take a good look at the way things are done and make a serious improvement there.
In summary, I would definitely recommend the Salesforce course for anyone interested in an IT career, and DCI is a good way to start but you need to also have self motivation to move your career further.
At the beginning, it was difficult and like a bumpy ride. However, the teacher as well as the class manager were very helpful.

It is bad, really bad!
This review is about the 12 month Web Developer course. It was an awful and exhausting experience. The teachers could not teach. It's as simple as that. I believe they had their knowledge but they couldn't pass it to us because they knew nothing about how to be a teacher. We complained for many months about this and the school couldn't care less. The so called "class managers" couldn't do more than "it will get better, we will look into this, don't worry, thank you for your feedback". We...
This review is about the 12 month Web Developer course. It was an awful and exhausting experience. The teachers could not teach. It's as simple as that. I believe they had their knowledge but they couldn't pass it to us because they knew nothing about how to be a teacher. We complained for many months about this and the school couldn't care less. The so called "class managers" couldn't do more than "it will get better, we will look into this, don't worry, thank you for your feedback". We fell into desperation, we literally had to scream to be heard, until something in them woke up and said "oh maybe there is actually something very wrong here".
We wasted months of our lifes with a teacher that was not able in any sense to teach us something. Bad communication, lack of preparation, not even thinking of preparing a lesson before starting it. The curriculum seemed ok and interesting, but it was impossible to do something with it.
Most of my class ended up buying extra courses online or paying tutors so we could at least learn something for real.
Then, after a long battle, we arrive at the job search moment and the job coaches and managers don't help with anything. It's been disappointment after disappointment with this school.
Everything in this school feels like a cash grab and they found a gold mine in state support.
Stay away. Look for another school. And trust the bad reviews, more than anything, trust the bad reviews, please. I was a fool not to do it in the first place, because I read a few but at the same time thought "it could't be that bad, right? And there is some positive reviews too, right?". Stay away. Learn by yourself even. Anything is better than DCI.
I worked in a hotel for some years and then started a family. Since it was difficult to reconcile both, I decided against my career. After a few months of unemployment, I decided to make a further education into the digital sector. With the DCI I was able to graduate as an Online Marketing Manager and now I have a great job with home office, work-life balance and a top salary. Thank you Digital Career Institute!

Hallo, ich war im Orientierungskurs Webdevelopment und Marketing und dieser Kurs war echt herausragend und spitze. Respektvoller und freundlicher Umgang, die Lehrer/in freundlich, hilfsbereit und sehr sehr wissend im Thema.
Ich mache jetzt im Juli den Python Backend Deveoper Kurs weiter und habe durch DCI dann sehr gute Jobchancen. Wer wirklich was aus seinem Leben machen will, sollte ein Weiterbildungskurs bei DCI machen.
Den DCI ist anders, als die meisten mir bekannten Träger und Maßnahmen in Berlin, und die ich auch in den letzten 10 Jahren in Berlin selbst erlebt und absolviert habe als Träger und Maßnahmen.
Die meisten anderen Träger in Berlin sind nicht respektvoll, nicht freundlich, meist unfähig oder unwissend oder machen unterirdische und schlechte Beschäftigungsmaßnahmen ohne ein je in einen Job zu vermitteln. Leben aber gut von Steuergeldern, und die Bundesregierung in Berlin macht das mit, und unterstützt schlechte Träger auch noch.
Nicht so bei DCI, das ist der erste Träger und Weiterbildungsanbieter, der echt respektvoll und freundlich ist sei es von den Schüler/in oder Lehrer/in und wo auch die Lehrer/in umfängliches, echtes Wissen aus der Wirtschaft und Informatik haben.
Ich habe das erstemal seit langem eine reale Aussicht auf ein Job und selbstbestimmtes Leben nach Menschenrechten die oft von Seiten der Leistungsabteilungen in Jobcenter in ganz Deutschland ohne Grund einem verwehrt werden.
Diese Weiterbildungskurse können unter anderem auch für Arbeitssuchende mit einem Bildungsgutschein vom Jobcenter finanziert werden.
Meist oder oft versuchen sich Jobcenter in ganz Deutschland darum zu drücken, und euch eine Weiterbildung zu verweigern, dann solltet ihr Klagen gegen das Jobcenter vor Gericht, kostenlos. Ihr gewinnt zu 99,9%, denn Weiterbildung ist ein Recht.
Dann muss man mit einem 10 Euro Schein zum nächsten Amtsgericht der Stadt und kriegt dort ein Justizbeihilfe Schein für den besten Clananwalt der Stadt, und nach spätestens 3 Tagen ist man in jeder Weiterbildung eingeklagt. Gilt für jedes Problem mit den Jobcentern. Geht halt manchmal nicht anders.
Auf jeden Fall kriegt ihr bei DCI eine sachlich fundierte Ausbildung in Informatik und Wirtschaft und es wird euch bei der Jobsuche und Eingliederung sehr gut geholfen von DCI.
So könnt ihr mit einer sehr fundierten Ausbildung innerhalb Deutschlands oder außerhalb in den Ländern der EU oder Amerika oder Australien oder Asien sicher einen guten Job und gutes Leben finden.
In Deutschland sind 80 Mio Einwohner, davon arbeiten noch 15 Mio legal und sozialversicherungspflichtig, 65 Mio Leute arbeiten ohne sozialversichert zu sein in prekären Lowlevel Jobs, sind in Rente oder arbeiten erst gar nicht aus welchen unterschiedlichen Gründen auch immer. (Quelle: Bundesamt für Statistik, 2019)
Also echte fundierte Fachkräfte in Deutschland werden händeringend überall gesucht in Deutschland, in allen Arbeitsbranchen, und gerade besonders in der IT.
Aber achtet auf eure Work - Life - Balance, laßt euch nicht verheizen und verkauft euch nicht unter Wert, am Arbeitsplatz in der Firma.
Also Leute geht zu DCI und bekommt wieder ein Sinn im Leben. :-)
Ich bin echt rundum zufrieden mit DCI und werde es auch im Bekanntenkreis weiterempfehlen.

When we started HTML Basics and then CSS Basics, I loved the curriculum. It was easy taught. I could immediately start writing HTML and CSS. The teacher made it easy to understand and to use. It was a great experience, a good way to start a career in the digital world. I strongly recommend DCI to all who want to begin a new career or switch job.
I was able to create two websites within a month of the orientation course. So I think that's a big thing, especially when you start from zero, like I did. I can only recommend this Institute and I can't wait to start the one year course.
I'm very happy that I made the decision to start a course with the DCI. We are learning everything to start our new career in Web Development. The Teacher are very good trained and always helpful. The Düsseldorf Campus has a nice atmosphere with really nice classrooms and break rooms to connect to other students. We already had a lot of company tours to have a deeper look on the job as a web developer and to connect to potential employer. Thank you DCI for the chance to start my career ...

We already had a lot of company tours to have a deeper look on the job as a web developer and to connect to potential employer. Thank you DCI for the chance to start my career new!
I am very happy with my decision. After a long search, I am happily studying Online Marketing at Digital Career Institute to inbound my previous PR&Sales experience for getting ready for a coming new digitalized world in a short term. I like a lot the friendly and warm atmosphere among the administration, teachers and fellow students. Due to COVID-19 we study all from home. Hopefully, soon we can again network, get mentorship and practical tips at the campus.
I am thankful to DCI for teaching me the digital skills to become an expert in Online marketing. The course is as per the industry standards with live projects and challenging projects to train someone to be job ready by the end of the course. The career support is amazing with paid internships and a great entry level job opportunity. The teachers, management, career support team are very friendly and available all the time for every student to help boost our career.
