The Most Valuable Programming Languages You Can Learn In 14 Weeks

“Be valuable… not available.”

The only reason Coding Dojo exists is that we believe that there is always going to be a better, more strategic path to the best opportunities in technology.

It’s this belief that shapes our curriculum: We only teach the programming languages that companies value now and will value even more in the future.

There are plenty of variables that inform which programming languages we teach in our bootcamp, such as wider technological developments, job requirements from real employers, advice from business owners, industry decision-makers, to name a few.

But what often matters most to our students is a cold, hard fact: How much is knowing a skill actually worth in terms of dollars?

Every year, Dice performs an audit of all things income-related in the field of tech. One of our favorite sets of information is the salaries associated with each of the programming languages and tech skills we teach.

Why? It lets us know that our grads enter the job hunt with the most in-demand, valuable skills under their belts. Let’s have a look.

Over 5,000 people used our 14-week bootcamp to learn the developmental skills above. They were in the exact same spot you’re in now, but they did one thing differently: They took two minutes and applied to Coding Dojo.
