We provide our graduates-to-be with a personal mentor, with whom they do a mentorship journey. During 6 weeks, our voluntary mentors guide our students towards finding a first internship or job experience, helping them with their CV and LinkedIn profile, giving them feedback on their motivational letters and doing mock interviews. Please reach out to us so we can discuss it in a call. We’re happy to see your face while explaining how you can become part of our mission.

During the week, students work on their group assignments. If stuck, students ask questions on their class channel. On Fridays, students submit their group homework, which is then reviewed by one of the coaches.

After the 8-months program, our students will be looking to do an internship between 1 and 3 months. On top of having a degree from the home country, the students have learned the basics of web development. If you’d like to find out more about how we teach and our curriculum, click here. They usually have the basics of French and/or Dutch and are incredibly eager to learn!

We are most happy to share our graduates’ profiles with you. Please contact us on info@hyfbe.be! Currently, our alumni are working on an alumni platform, where you will be able to consult the freshly graduated students who are currently looking for an internship or job. It will be online soon. In the meantime, don’t hesitate to reach out to us.

Students can only develop their full potential if they have access to qualitative material to learn. Because not every student has the resources to buy a computer, we collect used computers from companies to borrow them for the duration of our program. If your company has unused computers in stock, we would be incredibly grateful to make them useful again! Contact us via info@hyfbe.be
