Imagine a world full of tech-savvy individuals who approach the challenges of our time with a digital and entrepreneurial mindset. To achieve this, TechLabs Rotterdam offers a free blended- learning platform combining Online Learning, Project Work, and TechLabs Community Events to improve your coding skills! Learning is more effective (and fun) in a community of likeminded and ambitious people. Let’s learn together and gain access to a network of experienced mentors from universities, start-ups and corporations.

Our 6-month Digital Shaper program is composed of two phases: the Online Learning Journey where you build up your theoretical knowledge and the subsequent Project Work Journey where you apply your theoretical knowledge to own or given projects with a team. Take part in community events, make new friends, and learn from unique workshops and hackathons sponsored by our partners. After completion, receive a Digital Shaper Certificate and become a part of the TechLabs Alumni Network. No previous level of knowledge is needed to enrol. All that matters is motivation to learn! Are you excited about tech and want to learn how to apply coding to solve the problems of today? Apply now!

Data Science

In the Data Science track you will learn basic coding skills in Python and apply them directly to Data Science tasks — from data import to data preparation and visualization to building advanced machine learning models for classification and Web Development.

Deep Learning

Ready for a deepdive into AI? This track offers the possibility to learn about the possibilities of current AI methods such as Natural Language Processing, Image and Object Recognition. Techies apply Python in order to carry out those methods.

Web Development

Here you have the chance to learn of building your first interactive web application and get to know the Web Dev toolbox (e.g. HTML, CSS, JavaScript, React.js, and many more).

User Experience Design

In this track that is all about how we as people interact with technology, you will learn about the key values for designing an enjoyable user experience, get to know tools to prototype ideas, and create your own design portfolio.

Known as the “gateway to Europe” due to its large seaport, Rotterdam is a cultural melting pot with over 170 nationalities. Famous for its modern architecture as well as inventing ‘Kapsalon’, Rotterdam is home to many internationally renowned knowledge institutions and universities. With so much diversity, innovation and know-how in one place, it’s no wonder this city is developing into a major European tech & start-up hub with more than 500 tech start-ups (and counting). We believe Rotterdam is one of the best places to enter the Tech World– independent of your prior knowledge.
