Tech Apprenticeship Programs for Bootcamp Grads & Non-Traditional Candidates

I’ve assembled this list of apprenticeships and internships that are open to folks from non-traditional tech backgrounds, including bootcamp graduates and self-taught developers. Whether you’re fresh out of school, changing careers, or trying to turn your personal passion into a professional reality, these programs are designed to provide hands-on experience, mentorship, and growth opportunities for candidates who took alternative routes to tech.

All of these programs have different candidacy requirements, so be sure to check out a few! Non-traditional apprenticeships also tend to attract a lot of applicants and have fairly intense interviews, so be prepared that landing one of these positions can be a pretty tough process–but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t try. Some of these programs have multiple enrollment periods per year, so check on them every so often and follow the companies on social media to know when to apply.
