Coders Lab launches coding courses in Kosovo

The last few years have been very promising regarding the global expansion of Coders Lab IT Academy. After successfully starting franchised operations in countries such as Romania and Austria, the Poland-based bootcamp is now heading towards Kosovo. The new partnership will allow Kosovars to expand their digital skills due to vocational training in front-end and back-end programming and software testing. 

ICT is considered one of Kosovo's most important and attractive sectors for economic growth. The country has the highest internet penetration rate in the region (over 95%), a young and highly tech-literate population and, ultimately, youth labour (over 50% below 25). Coders Lab poses an outstanding opportunity to help bridge the labour market gap by preparing more people for this service export-dominated sector.

- The goals of Coders Lab Kosova include professional training certifications for people 19-34 in several IT programs, including Javascript, Python, Manual Testing and Automation Testing, and increasing the employability of young people in an environment in which unemployment among people below 25 is almost 50%. As the local Franchisee, we are very excited and happy to have been given this opportunity and are confident that we will exceed your expectations - says Adrian Hoxha, an experienced Kosovian entrepreneur who decided to implement the brand into his market together with his business associates. 

- We are excited about the opportunity to kickstart the Coders Lab brand in Kosovo. In our opinion, the entire Balkan region has great potential in the IT labour force. We will do our best to support local programmers in gaining new skills which will help them land lucrative jobs in the IT industry - says Grzegorz Morawski, responsible for the franchise development at Coders Lab. - I am sure that our new Partners have excellent managerial skills and experience that will allow them to achieve success in the bootcamp business. At all times, they can count on our support and advice. 

Coders Lab continues international expansion by partnering with established companies and experienced entrepreneurs willing to expand their business portfolios. As a franchisor, Coder Lab provides complete know-how and tools needed to open and develop an IT academy. The Franchisee is responsible for marketing, sales, and the organisation of courses. Coders Lab provides constantly updated learning materials, thus assuring that its Partners can focus solely on their business operations.
