kood\/Fellowship <\/span>our curriculum advisory board<\/span><\/h1>\n\n\n

Technology moves faster than any curriculum. So we regularly ask the people building Estonia’s tech companies what they’ll expect from a new engineer over the next year, and we build their answers into how you learn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why we have an advisory board<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

AI is changing how software gets built, and with it, who companies hire. People who only write code are no longer needed. The value comes from knowing what to build, framing the problem and directing AI until the result actually works.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\/\/kood’s curriculum has been rebuilt three times in five years. kood\/Fellowship started in autumn 2025 so that every next update starts from what people who build products and hire developers see every day. Members share how they use AI in their own work, what they expect from a new colleague, and which skills give a junior engineer an edge. All Fellowship members meet \/\/kood at least twice a year.<\/p>\n\n\n
