Microverse
An online school for remote software developers that costs nothing until you get a job
About Microverse
Microverse is an innovative online education platform that focuses on training individuals to become remote software engineers. The company serves a diverse and global community of students who are looking to break into the tech industry, regardless of their geographical location. Operating in the online education market, Microverse offers a Full Stack Web Development Program and an English language school called Leap, specifically designed for software developers. The business model is unique as it does not charge upfront tuition fees; instead, students pay a percentage of their future income once they secure a job, making education accessible to those who may not have the financial means to pay for traditional education. Microverse generates revenue through these income share agreements (ISAs), aligning its success with the success of its students. The company also provides personalized feedback and a collaborative learning environment, which helps students gain confidence and accelerate their learning process.
