Helping new talent into the tech world

Our program

Our 8-month program is divided into 12 modules. The last module is a 6-weeks intensive Final Project where students work on a real project with a real partner. Our training takes place at BeCentral (Brussels) every Sunday. During the week, students are supported online in their self-study, homework and peer learning.

Our core values

Community

We’re largely dependent on volunteers. That’s what makes us an engaged grassroots community, as our students call it ‘the HYF family’.

Diversity & inclusiveness

Our program is adapted to suit people with different backgrounds, often in vulnerable situations. We teach on Sundays to allow everyone to take control of their personal lives during the week.

Commitment

Our program is free of charge, although we ask for strong commitment during our 7 month-journey. And you know what? Many alumni stay actively involved!

Open

Sharing is caring. Our curriculum is 100% open. We believe in knowledge for the many, not the few.

Our success stories

Zeynep Hanim - Optis (Cronos)

Full-stack Developer

"HYF is a light that I saw at the bottom as well, a hope that I held onto as I was building a new life in a new country. It gave me a chance not only to improve my knowledge but to boost my confidence. Also, it gave me a chance to meet many wonderful people."

Edouardo - Capgemini

IT Consultant

"Hack your future definitely built the bridge between the unknown and the doors of my personal success, writing code is now part of my life and I will never forget the lessons learned and time spent with the fellow students and coaches. A big thank you!"

Gita - ttl.be

QA Developer

"What HYF brought to me is you should never give up and always try to find a way when you’re stuck. I’ve learned that dreaming big without big efforts will bring you nowhere. HackYourFuture was part of my journey to become who I am now."

Ramzi - AppTweak

UX/UI Designer

"Hack Your Future is one of the greatest programs that I joined. It has opened many doors for me to learn a lot about software and web development. Without this program, I wouldn't be at the current job which requires good knowledge in front-end development"
