A success story
InsurTech giant transforms non-technical talent into first-rate engineers
- Offer bootcamps to give employees a running start.

- Supplement limited in-house L&D resources with all-inclusive programs to meet specific business goals.
Background:
An insurance industry leader needed help to design and deliver a full-service Learn-to-Code Academy for non-tech employees, after an unsuccessful attempt with the largest boot camp provider.
Process:
DevelopIntelligence worked closely with the client’s team on an initial pilot to select 15 out of 50 applicants from the US for a 12-week Academy. This successful pilot evolved into a full-blown program.
Results:
This program for reskilling employees resulted in a 100% graduation rate of new full stack, mostly front-end developers. The majority received promotions within six months of the program.
