Aspiring App Developers Get Real World Training at Mobile Makers Academy

Headquartered in Chicago, USA, the Mobile Makers Academy attracts individuals who are interested in careers as mobile developers. The full-time, eight-week iOS bootcamp simulates a real work environment with independent and team-based hands on coding as opposed to a traditional learning environment that emphasizes lectures.

The academy provides small class sizes and each student creates a mobile app and submits it to Apple’s iTunes App store as their capstone project. The current graduating class has just released its apps including app offering an airborne allergy forecaster, a retail app for a socially minded online clothing store, an animated GIF finder, a competitive photo-sharing app and several social-networking apps.

“Every lesson at Mobile Makers builds on things we already learned, creating a fast-paced, ongoing level of learning that would be impossible to maintain by myself,” said Kabir Mahal, a recent Mobile Maker alum and the co-developer of the app JustMovd. Mahal is currently an iOS developer at Wislr, a youth media company. “In addition to the iOS-specific learning, Mobile Makers had the perfect environment to nurture team building and collaboration. After I graduated, I felt I had the tools needed to succeed professionally, and was able to jump into an Agile work team and write quality code within a matter of days.”

Mobile Makers is now accepting applications for its 2014 class schedule and offers personal, on-site instruction, practice technical interviews, a private job board and resources for alumni to continue enhancing their skills and portfolio.
