Software training for Malayalees in the UK, with the Skilled Worker route in mind

Who this is for
UK Malayalees we coach are roughly split: NHS-IT and care-sector workers wanting their first dev role, current developers on a Skilled Worker visa wanting to switch sponsors, and family-route arrivals starting from scratch. The curriculum supports all three.
What gets in the way today
- Most India-based bootcamps cannot run a live class at a UK-friendly hour
- Skilled Worker visa sponsorship is brutal; you cannot afford a thin portfolio
- IR35 changed the contractor landscape and most bootcamps have not caught up
How our programme is built for you
- Saturday live cohort at 10 AM IST (4:30 AM UK in winter, 5:30 AM in summer), no, just kidding
- Saturday live cohort at 3 PM IST (9:30 AM UK GMT / 10:30 AM BST), perfect for the UK weekend
- Skilled Worker visa context: which sponsors are open, what to ask, what to avoid
- Placement help focused on London fintech, Manchester product teams and NHS-IT

7 to 9 hours a week, weekends plus one evening review
Saturday live class at 3 PM IST (9:30 AM GMT / 10:30 AM BST) and Sunday at the same slot, plus one Wednesday evening UK-time mentor review.
Programmes we usually recommend for this track
What success looks like in this track
- Move from NHS-IT or care-sector work into your first paid developer role
- Switch your Skilled Worker visa to a new sponsor without breaking continuity
- Position yourself for an inside-IR35 contracting move once your visa allows it
