Most junior developer applications fail on the same three things: no evidence of working in a team codebase, no tests, and nothing deployed. This program is built around those three gaps. You work in a shared repository with pull requests and code review from week one, you build front end and back end against a real schema, and you finish with an application running in a cloud environment that you can walk an interviewer through.
Every week has its modules, a learning outcome, and an assessed submission with a deadline.
Week 1
TypeScript essentials for application code; HTTP, REST semantics, and status codes; Git branching, pull requests, and reviewing someone else's change; reading an unfamiliar repository and finding where a bug lives; local tooling, linting, and formatting; how a sprint actually runs.
By the end of this week you can
Clone an unfamiliar codebase, run it, locate the code responsible for a described behaviour, and land a reviewed change through a pull request.
Assessed this week
Bug-fix pull request against the cohort repository, including a written description of the cause. Quiz on HTTP semantics and Git workflow. Due end of week 1.
Week 2
React component design and composition; state that does not sprawl; controlled forms and validation; client-side routing; responsive layout; accessibility to WCAG 2.2 AA — keyboard operation, focus management, labels, contrast; loading, empty, and error states as first-class cases.
By the end of this week you can
Build a multi-screen interface from a supplied design that is keyboard-operable, handles failure states, and does not break at any viewport.
Assessed this week
Front-end build task with a written accessibility self-audit naming what you checked and what you found. Peer review of one other submission. Due end of week 2.
Week 3
Designing a REST API someone else can consume; normalised relational modelling and migrations; SQL beyond the basics; authentication and authorisation, and the difference; server-side validation of everything; the OWASP Top 10 as it applies to the code you are writing; unit and integration tests that are worth running.
By the end of this week you can
Model a domain, expose it through a secured API with server-side validation, and prove it works with tests rather than by clicking through it.
Assessed this week
API and schema submission with a passing test suite, marked on data model quality and on authorisation correctness. Due end of week 3.
Week 4
Wiring the front end to your own API; environment configuration and keeping secrets out of the bundle; a CI pipeline that runs tests before it deploys; deploying to a cloud environment; reading production logs; technical interview practice on your own code; writing the project up for someone who has not seen it.
By the end of this week you can
Deploy a working full-stack application and explain, under questioning, why you built it the way you did.
Assessed this week
Capstone: a deployed application demonstrated live to a tutor panel, with a technical question round. Portfolio write-up and resume artefact. Due end of week 4.

Yes — all modules, live sessions, and assessments are online. Where a program has a supervised practical component, that part is arranged with a partner provider and is explained in the curriculum for the week it falls in.
It depends on the program, and the consultation is where that gets checked properly. Some pathways assume an existing qualification or trade background; others are entry points. We would rather turn you away than take a fee for a program you cannot complete.
You can enrol from anywhere. Employment, internship, and any supervised practical component depend on your work rights and location, which your advisor will go through with you before you commit.

Consultation-led — not instant enrolment
Programs listed here are delivered through partner providers and advisor-led consulting pathways. Certification outcomes depend on program completion and assessment requirements. Genutive does not guarantee employment or visa approval.
Four weeks, online, with the same rhythm every week so you can plan around it.
Two scheduled live sessions each week with the program tutor — one teaching session and one working session for questions, code or case review, and feedback. Sessions are recorded. Tutor time is deliberately limited: it is there for the parts that need a person, not to re-read the modules to you.
Each week releases a set of modules with readings, walkthroughs, and practice tasks. Expect eight to twelve hours of self-paced work a week on top of the live sessions.
A short knowledge check closes each week's modules. You see your result immediately, and you can retake it until you pass — but only the first attempt counts toward your Merit Matrix quiz score.
Every week has a submitted piece of work with a deadline. Tutors mark it and return written feedback. Late submissions are accepted and marked, but on-time submission is what the Merit Matrix rewards.
The final week is a capstone reviewed by a tutor panel. It becomes the centrepiece of your project showcase, which is visible on your Genutive profile.
You are placed in a small peer group for the four weeks. Some tasks are collaborative and peer-reviewed, and collaboration is a scored component of the Merit Matrix — because it is the part of the work employers complain is missing.
Your Merit Score is calculated from four components. It is not a participation award, and it follows you into the job marketplace where employers can see it.
Tutor-marked weekly tasks and the capstone. The largest component, because it is the closest thing to the actual job.
Attendance at the scheduled live sessions. Recordings help you catch up on content, but they do not earn attendance.
First-attempt results on the weekly knowledge checks.
Peer review you give and receive, and contribution to group tasks.
A Merit Score of 70 or above moves your enrolment to Career Ready. That is the point at which the employer network, internship consideration, and marketplace visibility open up. Below 70 you keep the certificate of completion and can be reassessed, but Career Ready is a threshold, not a formality.
Internship placement is offered to successful candidates only. "Successful" means you complete the program and reach the Career Ready threshold of 70 on the Merit Matrix. Even then, a placement depends on a partner or employer having a suitable position open at the time, in a location where you hold the right to work. Genutive does not guarantee an internship, and does not guarantee a job. What we do guarantee is that you will be visible to the employers in our network with real, assessed evidence attached to your name rather than a claim on a resume.
A Genutive Industry Ready Certificate naming the program, the assessed components, and your Merit Score. It records what you actually did, which is why we can put the score on it.
Your capstone is published to your Genutive profile with the tutor panel's review, so an employer can look at the work rather than take your word for it.
A resume rebuilt around what you can now evidence, plus interview practice for the specific roles the program targets.
Career Ready candidates become visible to employers in the Genutive network and can be matched to roles in the job marketplace.
Program fees are set during your consultation. They depend on the program, your starting point, and whether a partner provider is delivering a regulated component alongside it — so a single advertised price would be misleading more often than it was accurate. The consultation is where you find out the fee, and there is no obligation attached to it.
