About the Project

IT SkillSprint is a high-impact program delivered by Ironhack in collaboration with IDDA (Innovation and Digital Development Agency) and the State Agency of Azerbaijan.

This initiative is specifically designed for 3rd-year university students who have been fully released from their regular classes to dedicate themselves entirely to this bootcamp. These students come from technical backgrounds and are highly motivated, as the credits earned count directly towards their university degrees.
