Once you\u2019ve decided that a Bootcamp is the right path for you to take, you\u2019ve got to decide on how<\/em> exactly you want to study. Different methods of learning work better for different people, as we all learn in varying ways. It\u2019s important to be honest with yourself when making this choice, especially with regards to your self-motivation when working independently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Online Digital Skills Bootcamps<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The majority of digital skills bootcamps that you will come across will be delivered online. This means you\u2019ll be working from your home, or wherever else you might choose to study, and completing the work and assignments (mostly) in your own time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To be successful on these courses, you\u2019ll need to be able to motivate yourself, and find time to learn and complete assessments on your own. You will of course have the guidance of a tutor, but much of what you do will need to come from your own ability to self-motivate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the main benefits of online bootcamps though is the flexibility that they offer to learners. You don\u2019t necessarily need to be in a specific place, at a specific time. This also means that a wider set of courses are potentially available, from providers further away. Though it\u2019s important to bear in mind that there may still be catchment areas for particular courses, so you\u2019ll need to make sure you\u2019re eligible before applying for any.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In-Person Digital Skills Bootcamps<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There are also some in-person digital skills bootcamps, though there are fewer than those that are delivered online. You\u2019d need to go into a learning centre at given times for lessons, where you would meet with peers and a tutor, and complete work and various tasks alongside them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These courses rely less on self-directed time management and motivation, though you will need of course to still to apply some of this yourself. But some people may feel more comfortable with the regular in-person support of a tutor and\/or other students, and if so, these courses would be a better fit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To attend an in-person course, you\u2019ll need to live relatively close to the centre where it is delivered. This limits options, so you\u2019ll need to look into what providers you have available to you locally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other Bootcamp Courses<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There are bootcamps, both online and in-person, which offer skills other than those in the digital sector. There are courses provided in Health and Social Care, Engineering, Business and Administration skills, and HGV driving certifications of various levels, as well as some other, less represented sectors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, there are fewer of these than there are for digital skills, and so places on the courses are often more competitive. Additionally, many are only delivered in-person \u2013 such as the HGV driving \u2013 and so you\u2019d potentially need to live somewhat locally to a centre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Conclusions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Whether you\u2019re looking to apply for an in-person, or an online, skills bootcamp course, it\u2019s essential to really research and consider your options before applying. Bootcamp courses can cost a lot of money, and will take up a significant portion of your time, so you want to get this right. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
