A NEW KIND of EDUCATION

At Holberton School, there are no formal teachers and no formal courses. Instead, lessons are project- centered, and peer-learning based. We assign our students increasingly difficult programming challenges to solve, providing only minimal initial direction on how to accomplish the assigned tasks or projects. As a result, students intuitively seek out the theory and tools they need, which they then process and analyze to select an approach to help them tackle the tasks at hand.

This approach to education has been used by top universities overseas to successfully train thousands of world-class software engineers. Today, those software engineers are working at Google, Facebook, Apple, Uber, Docker and dozens of other companies in the United States and around the world. As the rate of change and technological advancement increases, only time will tell what will be required of today’s graduates in tomorrow’s workforce. Therefore, a focus on simply learning tools and frameworks does not correspond to the range of challenges our students will face upon entering the workforce as software engineers. Through engaging our students in project-based and peer learning, our goal is to train the students to be highly skilled software engineers.

FRANCES ELIZABETH “BETTY” HOLBERTON

Frances Elizabeth “Betty” Holberton (1917-2001) was one of the six programmers of ENIAC. ENIAC was the very first programmable computer, created in 1943 by the US Army. In an environment where engineering and scientific research were considered to be jobs for males, programming (which was mistakenly considered to be clerical work at the time), was left to six female workers, who were not even allowed to see the computer! Betty Holberton was one of the selected staff. Not only did she reveal herself as incredibly talented at putting down the foundations of what would later become our modern-day software engineering, but she went on to achieve numerous other historical breakthroughs. Most notably, she was later actively involved with the creation and design of the FORTRAN and COBOL programming languages, which paved the way for modern languages.

One of the Holberton School’s goals is to find people who, just like Betty Holberton and her five colleagues at the time, might not come across as fitting the usual “software engineer” profile, but will nonetheless become leaders once in the industry, and give them the means to become just that.

On top of being proud to give voice to Mrs. Holberton’s name, the founders of Holberton School are immensely grateful to Pamela Jane Holberton and Priscilla Holberton, Betty Holberton’s daughters, for their blessing to use their family’s name.

"I am so proud that the people at Holberton School are using our name to do what they are doing. Their insights into people and creating a vision to foster these young men and women to become who they really might be and help them reveal to themselves their undiscovered talents is remarkable."

Pamela Jane Holberton, Betty Holberton’s daughter, and author of A Phoenix From The Abyss.

HISTORY Holberton School was founded in San Francisco, CA by Sylvain Kalache and Julien Barbier to solve a problem they observed all over the tech world. They had noticed aspiring software engineers would devote years to studying, sometimes accumulating over a hundred thousand dollars of student debt and would still not have the skills necessary to find a job in software engineering. Sylvain and Julien decided to build a new school; one that taught students to think and learn like the best programmers, one that helped students develop soft skills to get them noticed in interviews and throughout their careers, and one with a curriculum developed to give students practical experience through a Full-Stack engineering program.

Holberton School first opened its doors in San Francisco, CA in 2016 and the world's most innovative companies have noticed. Graduates have found employment at companies like LinkedIn, Google, Tesla, Docker, Apple, Dropbox, Facebook, Pinterest, Genentech, Cisco, IBM, and more.

Holberton started the Tulsa, OK campus in partnership with the George Kaiser Family

Online: Online distance education is a format in which courses complete the entirety of their

program online. Each week the students will participate in a variety of online activities and learning opportunities.

Outside Preparation: Outside preparation is in addition to regular classroom activities and is required to complete the class assignments. The type of outside preparation will vary by course and may take the form of homework assignments, projects, reading, and required research. The amount of time spent for outside preparation will vary according to individual student abilities and complexity of the assignments. Students are responsible for reading all study materials issued by their instructors and must turn in homework assignments at the designated time. Students can responsibly expect to spend 2 hours of outside preparation for every hour of scheduled class time. PLD: Peer Learning Day

Semester Credit: One credit hour is measured as 15 hours of academic engagement and additional outside preparation (see course syllabus for specifics). A semester credit is defined as academic credit-bearing distance education courses measured by the learning outcomes normally achieved through student work. All semester credit courses, and program values are determined using this formula. Partial credits for a course are rounded to the next lowest half or whole number. Substantive Interaction: Activities or assignments in the online portion of any course that can be measured by either completion or receiving a grade.
