Skills Bootcamps
WAES has previously offered a selection of Skills Bootcamps for Londoners. Our Full Stack Web Development with AI Bootcamp course that started on 3 November 2025 is a Skills Bootcamp.
Skills Bootcamps are free, flexible courses of up to 16 weeks, giving people the opportunity to build up sector-specific skills and fast-track to an interview with a local employer.
They are open to learners who are employed, self-employed, unemployed, or returning to work, but they must have the right to work in the UK and not currently be in full-time education.
Course information, including course requirements, expected outcomes and the application process, can be found on the Full Stack with AI Bootcamp course page.
We work with employers and other organisations that can provide jobs, work experience or volunteering opportunities to our learners when they complete their course.
Funding
Skills Bootcamps in London are funded by the Mayor of London and the Department for Education. They are free for eligible Londoners aged 19+ or co-funded for employers looking to upskill staff.
