The Baltic Institute of Technology in Lithuania, the leading IT institution in the Baltic States, now offers a special European diploma program for IT development. This program is suitable for anyone interested in a career in IT and is free.
One condition for access to the free European diploma program is to learn language and successfully complete programming training. The only language you need to be able to master is JavaScript programming language.
University education, knowledge and skills and experience in the field of IT are absolutely not necessary to apply for the European Diploma Program. Your fitness and inclination are most important here. The Baltic Institute of Technology uses a time-tested and highly reliable aptitude test for selection into the program. After completing it and collecting the correct number of points, you will receive an invitation to fill in the registration form. And everything here is really as simple as it sounds.
The European Diploma Program focuses on the delivery of talent to one of the fastest growing sectors in Europe, ICT. The duration of the special program is 14 months, the program is long and intensive, so you should be prepared to motivate yourself properly and devote enough time to it. The whole program can be divided into two separate stages:
>> For the first 7 months, specialists from leading IT companies will provide you with daily 8-hour virtual lectures and assignments.
>> The remaining 7 months are dedicated to completing your project and finding a job that meets your goals.
And finally, your personal achievements during the program are assessed - the exam. If you pass the exam with a score of at least 7, you will be awarded a diploma and a "ticket" to a traineeship in Europe.
Once you have learned the language properly and fulfilled the first condition, you can already travel to your dream country. Of course, you need to prepare properly for the trip, arrange the necessary documents, buy a ticket. This is where financial investment begins. What are they? First of all, a diploma, it is designed to prove and substantiate the competencies you have acquired. The price of the diploma can be called symbolic - it is € 250. However, this does not mean that you have to pay for the diploma immediately after graduation. Here you decide everything. If you are planning an internship in Europe or if you need and benefit from this diploma, only then do you pay for it.
The price of the internship is a bit higher - € 3,000, but again, it's up to you to decide if you can afford it and how important it is to you. There are no freedom of self-determination, no time constraints or limitations, and absolutely no pressure. You are a motivated student, you listen carefully to the course, you complete all the tasks and you get an opportunity that you manage yourself.
In summary, your financial investment after choosing the full package: diploma and internship is only € 3250. Going back to the table at the beginning of the article and comparing these numbers you will probably understand why this suggestion is really worth your attention.
