Whether you’re fresh out of high school, changing careers, or simply curious about technology, WestAccel Academy meets you where you are.

Every session ends with discussion time, and you’ll have weekday support via email or chat if you need extra encouragement.
At the end of the cohort, celebrate your progress with an optional Cohort Graduation & Recognition Ceremony, a special event for you, your family, and friends.
