Looking to grow your skills and move your career forward without committing to months of study? Starting this January, we’re launching a series of short, practical courses across West Yorkshire designed for busy professionals who want to upskill quickly and effectively.

AI is everywhere in the job search process - and it's not just candidates who are using it. Recruiters, too, rely heavily on AI to screen resumes, filter candidates, and streamline hiring. In fact, over 90% of large companies use AI for these purposes (Jobscan). But here’s the challenge - they also see a lot of AI-generated content. That means it's crucial to use AI wisely - not as a crutch, but as a tool to refine and enhance your materials, helping you stand out rather than blend in.

Running a small or medium-sized enterprise (SME) is all about making the most of what you have. At The Coders Guild, we recognize that resources are often stretched, and every investment you make in your team needs to count.

Discover why upskilling as a tester is crucial for developers. Learn how this strategic move enhances team efficiency and software quality, and how you can fast-track your learning with our apprenticeship program.

Working with The Coders Guild, I often find myself in rooms filled with the future of tech, surrounded by buzzing potential. But there's something really special about the Leeds Testing Atelier. This grassroots, self-organised conference embodies a spirit that resonates deeply with my values and, I believe, is fundamental to the ethos of our tech community.

Explore government-funded training in UX, Agile, Testing, CI, and more to boost team efficiency, retention, and well-being. Discover how The Coders Guild's tailored solutions can transform your tech team.

We asked Aiden Vaines, one of our technical Trainers, and also Principal Technologist & Platform & Engineering Lead to provide industry relevant top tips for internet safety in 2024 as part of our promotion to our learners, employers, partners and staff on how to be safe on the internet in 2024.

In an era where digital proficiency is not just an asset but a necessity, The Coders Guild is proud to introduce the Women's Leadership Course – a beacon of empowerment and advancement for women in leadership roles. This course is specially crafted for women and non-binary individuals, with a keen focus on those identifying as neurodiverse, and aims to equip them with tools to thrive in the ever-evolving digital landscape.

To truly thrive and advance in your career, you need a robust set of leadership and project management skills. These two pillars of professional growth go hand in hand, shaping not only your trajectory within an organisation but also your overall success in the tech world. In this blog post, we will explore the significance of leadership and project management skills and how they can propel your career to new heights.
