Online, Bootcamp Programs with Live Instruction
DWC offers several types of training options including certificate programs, bootcamps, stand-alone classes, and one-on-one consulting.
As a vocational school, we deliver our programs 100% online with live instruction in a bootcamp-style. A bootcamp-style means that your program is provided at an accelerated pace and more intensive than a traditional university classroom setting. Our class sizes are deliberately small so you keep close interaction with your instructor throughout the program. Students enjoy a balance between the bootcamp pacing and mentored instruction in small cohorts.

Training Styles to Fit Your Needs
