EPICODE

The institution provides a range of educational products, from intensive online bootcamps to fully accredited bachelor's degree programs. Its offerings cover subjects such as web development, data analysis, cybersecurity, computer engineering, and artificial intelligence. The curriculum is designed to be hands-on, featuring live online lessons, team-based projects, and practical application to build a student portfolio. For instance, bootcamps consist of core training followed by a specialization period and a final capstone project. In 2024, the company achieved accreditation as a Higher Education Institution from the Malta Further and Higher Education Authority, allowing it to launch degree programs like a BSc in Computer Engineering & AI.

EPICODE's business model targets both individuals seeking to enter or advance in the tech industry and corporate clients. It serves a network of over 600 hiring partner companies, including major names like EY, Deloitte, and Accenture, by supplying them with qualified talent. A key feature of its financial model is an income-share agreement, where students can pay a portion of the tuition upfront and the remainder once they secure employment. The company has secured significant funding to fuel its growth, raising a total of $12.2 million over three rounds from investors including Y Combinator, B Heroes, and a number of prominent angel investors. A major milestone occurred in March 2022, when the company raised €10 million, rebranded from Epicode School to EPICODE, and merged with the Berlin-based Strive School to expand its European footprint.
