Why Of Contents
Metana
Everything about our Web Development course.
Personalized Instruction - Every week you will spend 30-60 minutes one-on-one
with an expert instructor, who will conduct an expert review of the code you wrote
for the assignments. They will point out mistakes and suggest improvements. If
serious mistakes are found, you must go back and fix them. This is critical to
graduating from the bootcamp. (If you don’t like taking direct feedback on how to
improve, Metana is not for you!)

Small Cohorts - In addition to your weekly personalized meeting, you will meet for
1 hour per week with your cohort and the instructor to discuss what you learned,
ask hard questions, discuss crypto news, and generally have an awesome
discussion with smart and passionate people. Each cohort has a hard cap of 10,
and we frequently make it smaller. You will be surrounded by like-minded people
who help keep you accountable and stay on track.

Hands-on Emphasis - There is no tutorial hell with Metana. At least 80% of your
learning hours will be spent coding or hacking.

Extremely Rigorous Curriculum - Although 80% of the curriculum is practice,

the remaining 20% of theory matters too. We don’t see theory and practice as
either/or. We want you to know the fundamentals and the minute details of how
things work.

Expert Mentorship - Learn from industry experts who guide you to become a
senior blockchain engineer.

JobCamp™ - Specialized training to help you thrive in your first job and beyond.

Web3 Career Opportunities - Position yourself at the forefront of tech innovation

and transform your career, income, and future by acquiring in-demand Web3 skills.

applications and what developers need to deliver. Another plus point is that once you
master JS, you'll be eligible to join Metana's advanced solidity bootcamp.

After observing these trends, plus conducting lots of research and conversations with
industry experts, we’ve come to the conclusion that full-stack JavaScript is the future
of web development. Consequently, it is what we primarily immerse our students in at
Metana.

What about Ruby on Rails, Python, or other engineering languages? Why

are other schools teaching these—or a combination of these—instead?

Ruby on Rails has been instrumental in consolidating many best practices in back-end
web development—making it easier for developers to build large sites organized.
Meanwhile, Python has completely revolutionized the way sites record and use
data—and we do teach Python foundational skills in our Data Analytics bootcamps.

However, research and use cases show that today’s web runs on highly interactive
and responsive experiences that don’t require a page refresh at every step. As a result,
single-page applications (SPAs) written in JavaScript using frameworks like React or
Vue.js make JavaScript one of the best programming languages to learn.

JavaScript also offers professional advantages over other languages. Metana

graduates are well-rounded coders with both a thorough understanding of the full
stack and programming concepts in general. We’ve learned through years of tech
education that students may more easily understand and master other coding
languages once they’ve learned full-stack JavaScript. This gives our graduates a more
in-demand skill set that separates them from the competition and widens the range of
coding job types they’re qualified for.

What is the remote study experience like in the Software Engineering
Bootcamp?
All our coding bootcamps are thorough, comprehensive, immersive, and rigorous.
We’re backed by multi-year experience in online tech training to deliver consistent,
in-demand coding curricula and digital learning tools in a remote environment.

Specifically, the Software Engineering Bootcamp is designed to support you in

leveling up your coding skills, building a robust portfolio, and launching a career in
tech.

What is the format of the software engineering bootcamp? Is the

bootcamp online or in-person?
Metana's Full stack software engineering bootcamp is a 4-month (6 Months Part time)
program delivered in online sessions. Participants will have access to online course
materials and lectures.

Who should join this bootcamp?

Both intermediate and beginner coders are welcome. No matter where you are in
your coding journey, you can hone the skills, knowledge, and practical experience of a
professional web developer with Metana.

What is the time commitment for the bootcamp?

For the full-time program, with participants expected to devote approximately 40 hours
per week to coursework and projects.

If done part time, 20-30 hours per week is sufficient.

Will I receive a certificate upon completion of the bootcamp?

Yes, participants who successfully complete the bootcamp will receive a certificate of
completion.

42
Are there any prerequisites for the bootcamp?
You must be proficient in English.

Is financial assistance available for the bootcamp?

Some scholarships and financial assistance may be available for eligible participants.

How is artificial intelligence (Al) impacting the software engineering

profession?
The recent leap in artificial intelligence (Al) tools will enhance the productivity of the
software engineer like nothing before it. Perhaps the greatest recipients of this
technology will be our graduates, and those just starting out or entering the software
engineering field.

That is why we're proud to teach the Al-powered tool GitHub Copilot in our
instructor-taught curriculum in all our coding bootcamps. At Metana we believe that
new coders and new software engineers should learn foundational skills before being
introduced to these types of productivity-enhancing tools.

Do you teach anything related to Al in your coding bootcamps?

A BIG YES. We teach students how to use the Al-powered tool GitHub Copilot in all
our coding bootcamps. We teach students how to integrate Copilot into their software
development workflow during the later modules of all of our coding bootcamps, after
proficiency in programming has been obtained. Students will use this tool to build a
portfolio project (a non-trivial application) to demonstrate their ability to evaluate and
blend Al-generated code with their own.

Our instructional teams, which are composed of industry veterans, have managed the
responsible use of productivity-enhancement tools throughout their careers and are
well-equipped to teach this newest tool.

I need to know about Metana's job placement
In addition to being a bootcamp, we also work as a recruiting firm, and we get paid a
commission if we help you find employment. Therefore, we are very invested in helping you
land a job.

We won't necessarily offer you a job off the bat either. We will work with you to enhance your
online presence and make your resume look good. The hiring process is incredibly random,
and any successful job search requires submitting numerous applications and acting
professionally while doing so.

Who are Metana’s Hiring and Education partners?

What is the structure Of the course?

15% Tutorials, 85% Coding. Group office hours will be held once a week & with a weekly
one-on-one session.

All content will be delivered through video & text using our LMS.

44
How does Metanas weekly schedule look like?
Each week at Metana includes four key events:

1. A group class and discussion lasting for 1 hour. Students are encouraged to prepare a
list of questions for the instructor ahead of time, and the next week's assignment will
be introduced and clarified during this meeting. The group class also provides an
opportunity to discuss recent crypto events and explore more in-depth blockchain
concepts that may not be covered in the curriculum.
2. A 30-minute one-on-one code review session with an instructor, during which the
instructor will provide feedback on the code written during the previous week.
3. Time dedicated to studying materials for that week's topic. Materials may include
reading or video resources provided by Metana.
4. Completing the new assignment, which will typically take up the majority of the week.

In addition, Metana also provides support for interview preparation and instructors are
available to work closely with students to get them ready for pending interviews.

Can I apply for a personal loan?

Some students use personal loans to pay for their education. There are many personal
lending options for you to research and consider.

Keep in mind that Metana does not endorse, recommend, or promote any particular lender.
The payment choice is at the discretion of you, the student. If you decide to use a personal
loan, make sure to choose the option that works best for you.

Below are a few options; personal loans may also be available through your personal financial
institution.

Apply for Meritize loan

*You can borrow less, but need to pay the tuition difference upfront. Only available for U.S.
citizens/permanent residents.

What makes Metana different from other online learning?

Personalized Instruction - Every week you will spend half an hour one-on-one with a senior
engineer who will do an expert review of the code you wrote for the assignments. He or she
will point out mistakes and suggest improvements. If serious mistakes are found, you must go
back and fix them. (If you don’t like taking direct feedback on how to improve, Metana is not
for you!)

Small Cohorts - In addition to your weekly personalized meeting, you will meet 1 hour per
week with your cohort and the instructor to discuss what you learned, ask hard questions,
discuss crypto news, and generally have an awesome discussion with smart and passionate
people. Each cohort has a hard cap of 10, and we frequently make it smaller. You will be
surrounded by like-minded people who help keep you accountable and stay on track.

Hands-on Emphasis - There is no tutorial hell with Metana. At least 80% of your learning
hours will be spent coding or hacking.

Extremely Rigorous Curriculum - Although 80% is practice, the remaining 20% of theory
matters too. We don’t see theory and practice as either or. We want you to know the
fundamentals and the minute details of how things work.

We go way beyond other courses in what we require you to understand.

For example, towards the end of the course, you will be writing non-trivial smart contracts
completely in assembly (Yul), breaking incorrectly used public signature cryptography,
creating an Ethereum wallet from scratch, using testing techniques most developers have not
heard of, reverse engineering the compiler output without the aid of a decompiler, and
recreating hacks that have drained applications of millions of dollars.

You will understand at a deep level how smart contracts store various kinds of data on the
blockchain and how transactions are formed and interpreted.

46
Can I get a job as an auditor after completing the course?

At Metana, security is given top priority. Most of the assignments are based on hacking. You
won't graduate if you are unable to complete the hacks. The sheer volume of frequent hacks
demonstrates how poorly versed in security today's smart contract developers are. Our
graduates must not contribute to the issue. You won't graduate if you can't finish the hacks.
(Don't worry, you'll receive the instruction you require.)

However, becoming a smart contract auditor without having a lot of experience developing
smart contracts is not realistic unless you have a solid foundation in cybersecurity. We aim to
develop you into a strong web3 developer, but if you are still set on becoming a security
auditor, we can show you the next steps.

I want to succeed in this bootcamp. How can I do that?

At Metana we have 3 pillars of success.

1. Curiosity - Ask questions and keep them coming.

2. Consistency - We will closely monitor your GitHub contributions so do NOT try to

cram assignments at the last minute. That would never work out well for you.

3. Feedback - Don’t be scared to ask questions or give feedback. Google can’t always
explain exactly what you don’t understand. We have a low instructor-to-student ratio
specifically to facilitate more communication.

We appreciate student feedback and continuously improve our curriculum based on it.

How much time should I spend on this course every week?

This changes from week to week. It can be anything between 5 to 35 hours per week and will
greatly depend on what’s covered that week and your level of expertise.

How much work does this require?

We want our students to succeed. So we recommend you reserve at least 20 hours per week
for this course. Some weeks might take more hours than others.

47
What do I need to do to reserve my spot in the bootcamp?

As part of the application process, you will schedule a 30-minute video interview with a
student admissions officer. In the three days leading up to the interview, you must complete
and pass a coding test with a sufficient score. If your interview is successful, you will receive
a conditional offer of acceptance. To secure your place in the program, you must pay at least
the first month's tuition.

How are the lectures given at Metana?

Lectures and study materials at Metana may include both in-house resources and high-quality
materials sourced from the internet. These resources may include readings or video content.

While lectures are an important part of the learning process, we believe that hands-on
practice is key to truly understanding and retaining the material. Therefore, we try to minimize
the amount of time spent in lectures and focus more on problem-solving and working on
projects.

During lectures, we make an effort to cover the less obvious or unexpected aspects of the
topics being studied.

Why should I spend money on this program when there are a lot of
materials online for free?
Of course, we know that the internet is saturated with content and resources. But the real
question is, do you know exactly where to begin?

At Metana, we will guide you along a clear roadmap. Time is money. If you cluelessly wander
about the internet for useful resources, you will be wasting your time.

If you like us, value your time and would like to be assured that you are taking the best path
possible, this bootcamp is for you. We will ensure you don’t waste any time searching for
resources. You will not have to scroll for hours on Reddit forums or StackOverflow. All the
necessary resources will be at your fingertips.

How long has Metana been around?

We started metana in February 2022 and our first bootcamp on June 2022.

Which types of students tend to perform well in this bootcamp?

Our program has seen success with self-taught programmers who work as freelancers. This
experience often allows for more flexibility in completing course assignments.

Additionally, a strong passion for learning is key to success in this program, as we focus on
staying up-to-date with the latest technologies.

Prior experience with low-level programming languages such as C or C++, as well as having a
graduate degree, may also increase the likelihood of success in this program.

Ultimately, the most successful students are those who are highly curious and eager to
acquire new knowledge. Our bootcamp aims to streamline the learning process by
providing targeted and relevant information, allowing students to focus on mastering new
skills through practice
