Yes, you heard it right &#8211; things took a dynamic turn as we decided to welcome not one but TWO batches of coding enthusiasts in one year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/kood.tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/DSC01980-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11519\" style=\"width:528px;height:auto\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 style=\"--ama-heading-stencil-color: var(--ama-accent-color-1)\" class=\"wp-block-heading wp-el\" id=\"h-discovering-the-new-cohort\">Discovering the new cohort<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-el\">To find out who the 4th batch brings us, let&#8217;s dive into the demographics! The average age of students is <strong>28<\/strong>, with the <strong>median age being 27<\/strong>. In terms of gender representation, 20% of the individuals are women, while 80% are men. There are students from Bangladesh, Belarus, the United States, Brazil, the United Kingdom, Latvia, Russia, Sweden, Ukraine, and of course, Estonia, making up a <strong>diverse cohort<\/strong>. We have those learning full-time on-site and residing in the Student Housing in J\u00f5hvi, and others studying remotely while occasionally using the school premises when needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 style=\"--ama-heading-stencil-color: var(--ama-accent-color-2)\" class=\"wp-block-heading wp-el\" id=\"h-day-one-insights-reunions\">Day One: Insights &amp; Reunions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-el\">The first day of studies kicked off with an insightful <strong>kood\/Talk by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swedbank.ee\/about?language=ENG\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Swedbank<\/a><\/strong>, one of the school&#8217;s esteemed partner companies. The theme, &#8220;<strong>Engineers&#8217; Life at Swedbank<\/strong>&#8220;, provided students with a glimpse into the real-world experiences of engineers. According to Mattias, a batch 4 student, it was an eye-opener: &#8220;Right from the start of my studies, I got lots of valuable insights on networking and portfolio building. Also, speakers provided me with a better understanding of the real-world aspects of the tech industry.&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/kood.tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/IMG_6250-1-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11517\" style=\"width:537px;height:auto\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>First meet-up with the mentors<\/em> <em>from Batch 2 &amp; 3<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-el\">Of course, this day was not just about studies, it was also about a reunion. Students got a chance to come together and reconnect with friends made during the <a href=\"https:\/\/kood.tech\/2022\/03\/10\/what-is-the-selection-sprint\/\"><strong>Selection Sprint<\/strong><\/a>. It was a warm get-together, which created a cozy and inviting atmosphere within the walls of kood\/J\u00f5hvi. Skye, a batch 4 student, shared: &#8220;Reconnecting with the friends I made during the Selection Sprint was a fantastic bonus of the day. Considering I&#8217;ll be participating in the program remotely, this meet-up gave me the much-needed inspiration and I believe it will fuel me for a long time.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 style=\"--ama-heading-stencil-color: var(--ama-accent-color-3)\" class=\"wp-block-heading wp-el\" id=\"h-the-coding-journey-ahead\">The Coding Journey Ahead<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-el\">Over the next 18 months, Batch 4 will immerse themselves in various projects and specialization branches, exploring a range of programming languages such as <strong>Go<\/strong>, <strong>JavaScript<\/strong>, and more. But this journey is a lot more than only technical skills. kood\/J\u00f5hvi\u2019s self-learning methodology also aims to develop students\u2019 ability to learn how to learn, solve complex problems, and collaborate creatively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-el\">Exciting isn\u2019t it?
