Scholarship seats
The OctoPrep Scholarship Initiative
We're providing free job-preparation training to early-career and graduate software engineers. Through community participation, each contribution helps cover platform costs, AI-powered tools, and program operations so talented job seekers can access world-class preparation at no cost.
After running two paid cohorts, we knew this needed to be accessible to everyone. We've now opened 3,000 scholarship seats.
This initiative would not be possible without our amazing community contributors who believe in creating equal access to opportunities in tech.
