The Bootcamp market in Spain

Do you know the term Bootcamp? They are short-term training programs that transfer the concept of military training to technological disciplines. In the United States they have been training digital talent for more than 15 years, but, on the contrary, their presence in the Spanish market is less than 5 years. The digital talent gap and, therefore, the lack of professionals in the technology sector has driven the growth of bootcamps during the last decade in their role as express trainers of digital talent among adult students.

Attend to the presentation of our Report ‘Talent and Bootcamps’, the first study to analyze the impact of bootcamps in Spain. In order to understand the scope of this methodology in technological training, we have conducted different interviews with the most relevant actors in this new model of training offer.
