Graduate Feedbacks
Georgi Suikanen (29) (1st batch)
“I realised that what I was doing was not what I wanted to do for the next 40 years. I considered various routes until an acquaintance with 20 years of experience in IT said that kood/Jõhvi is the best option. I am very satisfied because I moved to a developer role within the company I worked after just two months of studies.”
Previous education: MA in Business Information Technology
Previous job: Data Analyst at SEB
Kerli Zirk (28) (1st batch)
“kood/Jõhvi was the best decision for continuing my education because, thanks to the skills acquired in the program, I quickly got a job as a software developer. Without kood/Jõhvi, I would probably still be selling car parts.”
Prior education: Vocational degree (car mechanic)
Previous job: Sales Representative for car parts
Viktor Veertee (30) (2nd batch)
“Two years ago I was working on ships and had never programmed in my life. After completing the kood/Jõhvi programme, I started working in the fields of cyber security and DevOps. kood/Jõhvi gave me a strong foundation, with which I could apply the knowledge I learned and take on new challenges with confidence.
Today I am developing kood/Jõhvi’s curriculum. My experiences working in the IT sector have shown that the skills of kood/Jõhvi alumni are highly sought after and welcomed in the field.”
Prior education: Vocational degree (maritime)
Previous job: Officer on Yachts and Specialized Vessels

Emil Värnomasing (26) (1st batch)
“kood/Jõhvi was the best experience in my life. First of all, the school taught me not to be afraid of the unknown and to learn independently, which is extremely necessary in programming.
Thanks to kood/Jõhvi, I got a job at Proekspert as a programmer. Thanks to the cyber security hackathon organised at the school, I started my own start-up and hired developers from kood/Jõhvi”
Prior education: Vocational degree (software development)
