Why people do this
This is what our graduates earn.
Let's be honest. Nobody enrols in a bootcamp just for the coursework. If that were it, you could watch YouTube. People come here for what happens after: not just a job, but a career that pays six figures. Our graduates work as QA Analysts, Test Automation Engineers, Business Analysts and Product Owners.

Senior QA Test Automation Engineer
From zero experience to a six-figure tech job
I absolutely love this school. Enrolling in Chroma Tech Academy was one of the best decisions I've ever made. I came in with zero IT background, and now I'm working as a senior QA test automation engineer at a major company with a salary of 125,000 dollars a year. It still feels unreal sometimes. The program is structured to make even the most complex topics easy to understand. The instructors are not only knowledgeable professionals with real industry experience — they're also patient, passionate, and genuinely invested in every student's success.

Best Bootcamp with great Instructor!
I joined ChromaTech after having a bad experience with another bootcamp. The experience in ChromaTech was the complete opposite of my previous experience. One of the best things about ChromaTech is that we actually meet live 4-5 days out of the week with the actual instructor. This helped me put into practice everything i learned in the videos, it helped clear up anything I didn't completely understand. We had real life projects and soft skills training. Definitely recommend 100%!

This school is legit
I was very skeptical about getting enrolled into Chroma because I had been scammed by an IT bootcamp in the past. Gave it a try and this was the best thing I did for myself - life changing program for people like me with no ideas how to get into IT. BUT, if you expect going in and putting no effort then this school is not for you. This is a very challenging course, the only way to survive is to ATTEND & PRACTICE. It's been the best investment for me — every penny I spent is now turning into a decent salary.

6 months was worth it
I want to say a huge thank you to Chroma Tech Academy, you guys are so great! It was the best time and the best moments that will be remembered for a lifetime. I received a great offer with a salary that will provide for my entire family! 6 months was worth it 💯 Thank you! I only regret one thing - why didn't I find out about you earlier?

Test Automation Engineer
My first full-time career as a Test Automation Engineer
I joined Chroma Tech knowing very little about IT... in a few months' time I was able to master advanced skills I never would have thought I'd be capable of! After I finished going through their course material, I was consistently given personalized help and instruction, which helped me acquire my first full-time career as a Test Automation Engineer. Whether you want to switch career paths, don't want to spend six figures on a college degree, or even if you just don't know what to do with your life but need some kind of direction and security for your future, Chroma Tech Academy is the place for you!

The value you get is at least 3 times the effort you put in
Took the SDET course. First of all, the head instructor Diego is a brilliant guy who goes above and beyond to set students up for success not just as an SDET, but also as a human being. Content is well-organized, thorough, and up-to-date with the current market. You don't realize how much you've learned until the final project, when you work with a team to test a product and solve real-life challenges. Very difficult and a lot of fun. The value you get is at least 3 times the effort you put in.

One on One With Diego
Diego is the heart of Chroma Tech Academy. He has placed over 100+ students into $100K+ jobs, which is well over $11 million in combined student salaries. This is the only way to work with him directly, and because it is one person’s time, there are only ever a handful running at once.
- Work one on one with Diego, a seasoned and award winning veteran in the field
- Individual attention that no cohort can match. Diego reviews all of your work himself
- So far, every student Diego has taken on one on one has landed a role. He does not take everyone, and you meet first to see whether it is a good match
- It moves at your pace. Some students finish in as little as 12 weeks
- You and Diego settle on a schedule that works for both of you

How it works
From no experience to interviewing.
- 01
Book an intro session
You speak to a career specialist, not a call centre. We look at where you are now and whether this is a fit. If it is not, we say so.
- 02
Pick your course and start
Cohorts are small and start on a set date. You get the schedule up front so you can plan around work and family.
- 03
Work on real applications
You test live applications with the messy problems real teams actually hit, not tidy exercises with a known answer. It is what gives you something real to walk an interviewer through, and why the first week of the job is not a shock.
- 04
Get help until you are hired
Resume review, mock interviews, and job leads shared directly with the community. Support does not stop the week the course ends.
Why Chroma
We know this work. Most schools are guessing.
That sounds like a boast. Spend ten minutes on the other schools' websites and decide for yourself.
We teach. The AI assists.
Every school in this market now sells you AI. Ask what that means and it usually means a chatbot answering your questions instead of an instructor. You will learn AI tooling here because the job requires it. You will not be handed one and left to it.
Small cohorts, on purpose
The big names are very good at marketing, and they enroll thousands a year. That is a volume business, and it is why so many people finish a program and then never hear from anyone again. We stay small so nobody becomes a ticket number.
We have placed over 100 people in six-figure roles
Not a market average or a national statistic. People who came through this academy, most of them with no technical background when they started, who are now earning six figures.
We are still there after you graduate
Resume review, mock interviews, and job leads shared straight into the student community. Graduates keep their access to it. Support does not expire the week the course ends.
Questions
Things people ask before enrolling.
Do I need any technical background?
No. Most of our students come from retail, healthcare, logistics, and the military with no coding experience at all. We have taught Uber drivers, stay at home moms and pizza delivery drivers. AI Software Testing assumes you have never opened a terminal.
How long does it take?
It depends on the course and how much time you can give it each week. The intro session is where we work that out honestly against your actual schedule rather than quoting a number that suits us.
Are classes live or recorded?
Both. Classes are taught live in a small cohort, so you can interrupt the instructor and ask questions as you go. Every session is also recorded, and there is pre-recorded material to work through at your own pace between classes.
Can I do this while working full time?
Yes, and most of our students do. If the cohort schedule does not fit around your job, one on one instruction runs on your schedule instead.
What help do I get finding a job?
Resume review, mock interviews, and job leads shared directly with the student community. Graduates keep their access to it after finishing.
Can I pay over time?
Yes. We offer financing through Affirm so you can pay monthly instead of upfront. The intro session covers the options for your situation.
