Formation is a virtual fellowship program for software engineers who seek impactful roles and career growth at the most innovative tech companies in the industry. Our unparalleled outcomes are the result of innovative adaptive learning technology, comprehensive curriculum of engineering principles, and commitment to building a diverse engineering community.
As early engineers at Meta and Nextdoor, we collectively interviewed thousands of software engineering candidates and noticed the same skill gaps popping up over and over. So, we started Formation with one simple goal in mind: to help exceptional engineers land life-changing roles.
We decided to flip the traditional education model on its head to help engineers achieve excellence.
In 2020, we founded Formation and launched our flagship Fellowship. In our Fellowship, the learner is at the center of their journey. Instead of a one-size-fits-all curriculum, we leverage adaptive learning technology to pinpoint personal areas of weakness. We target all our mentorship towards those skill gaps so that every Fellow is reliably prepared to be competitive at a top-tier bar.
We consistently place our Fellows at top-tier companies like Amazon, Google, and Airbnb with an $85K+ average compensation increase per Fellow.
Our Fellowship champions equity and supports engineers throughout their careers.
More than 75% of our Fellows come from underrepresented or non-traditional backgrounds. Because the landscape of jobs in the technology industry is constantly evolving, we know how important it is that engineers feel supported beyond the beginning of their learning journey. Today, we help engineers throughout their careers as they progress to mid- or senior-level roles and beyond.
