northpath --version 2026
Live online bootcamps in web development, data analytics and UX design. We count every graduate in our outcomes, print every payment plan's true total, and will tell you if a bootcamp is the wrong move for you. That's the pitch.

Example figures for this demo site. The method is real: every 2025 graduate counts, including those we couldn't reach. How the numbers are made
ls ~/programs
engineering
HTML to deployed product: JavaScript, TypeScript, React, Node and PostgreSQL, taught live with daily pair programming and weekly code review.
data
SQL first, then Python, statistics and dashboards: the working analyst's toolkit, taught through messy real-world datasets instead of clean textbook ones.
design
Research to shipped interface: user research, interaction design, Figma, prototyping and usability testing, with two portfolio case studies built on real briefs.

Every session is taught live by an instructor who has done the job. No pre-recorded playlists with a chat channel bolted on. You pair-program (or pair-critique) every session, your work is reviewed weekly, and a cohort of 24 means the instructor knows exactly where you're stuck by Tuesday.

This industry taught students to distrust it: placement rates with secret denominators, "guaranteed jobs" voided by fine print, deferred plans whose totals never appear on the pricing page. Northpath's rule is simple. If a number sells the program, you get the method behind it.
Our outcomes count every graduate, including the ones we couldn't reach. No survey-respondents-only math, no hand-picked cohorts, and the method is public.
Every session is taught live by an instructor who has done the job. Cohorts cap at 24 with two TAs, because nobody learns to code from a video playlist alone.
Portfolio, resume and interview prep are built into the curriculum from the first week, because the job search is a skill, not an afterthought.
Every plan's total cost is on the pricing page, including how much more deferred tuition costs. If a school hides a number, assume it's not flattering.

northpath apply --steps
01
Tell us your background and goals. No trick questions and no aptitude tests. We're checking fit and readiness, not gatekeeping.
02
A 30-minute video call with a person, within a week. We'll tell you honestly if a different program, or no bootcamp at all, fits your goal better.
03
Every admit completes a free 10 to 20 hour prep course before day 1. It doubles as a self-test: if you hate the prep, you'd hate the program, and it's better to learn that for $0.
04
Pick a payment plan and reserve your seat ($250 deposit, credited to tuition). Leave in the first 2 weeks of class for a full refund, deposit included.
git log --author=graduate
“The honest part nobody tells you: the program was the easy half. I sent about 140 applications over four months. What got me through was the weekly career-sprint structure and a portfolio I could actually defend line by line.”
grep -r "review" ~/graduates
Hard, fair, and worth it
“I kept my job in a pharmacy the whole time. Tuesday and Thursday nights were tiring, but the pairing kept me honest. Code review in week 8 was brutal in a useful way.”
Good program, wrong timing for me
“Full-time with a newborn at home was too much. I paused once and rejoined, which helped, but I wish I'd picked part-time from the start. Teaching was solid.”
The stats weeks paid off at work
“I moved from a support role into an analyst role at the same company. The A/B testing memo from week 7 was basically my internal interview.”
