Dimitar Markov

Junior Full-Stack Developer

The Coca-Cola Company

Telerik Academy is a great starting point for anyone who wants to jumpstart a career in the IT industry. It provided me with the underlying knowledge and practical experience needed to join the sector.

Kalin Kostov

Software Developer

Tick42

(Class of 2017)

There is no other tech-ed organization in Bulgaria like Telerik Academy. These are not only my words. I know a lot of expats who came back to Bulgaria and people who quit their jobs or put their university studies on hold to be able to fully dedicate themselves to the Academy.

Alexander Popov

Site Engineering Lead

Uber

Some of my best junior software engineers at Uber come from Telerik Academy. It is always a pleasure to work with their alumni!

Ivan Rusev

Kiril Peyanski

Telerik Academy changed my life. At the age of 20, I was already independent and working my dream job! Without the knowledge and experience I gained at Telerik Academy, I wouldn’t have had such a flying start.

Svetoslav Torbov

Still have questions?

How do I enroll for a Sprint?

Simply click the enroll button and follow the on-page instructions. You’ll need to sign up for a Telerik Academy Learn account to access Sprint session links and course materials. Then, just pay for your seat to complete your enrollment. That's it!

How can I pay?

You can pay for your seat using your Visa, Mastercard, American Express or Diners Club card directly on our website. If you prefer to make a bank wire, please contact us for assistance.

Can I get an invoice?

To receive a company invoice, check the "I want an invoice" box during sign-up and provide your company's name, address, and VAT number. We'll email the invoice to you.

How long does it take to complete a Sprint?

Sprints are 2-week programs with 4 sessions held on 2 weekdays each week, scheduled for after-work hours.

What if I miss a live session?

No problem! We record every live session with our trainers and speakers and make the recordings available for you to replay at your convenience.

Will I receive a certificate upon completion of a Sprint?

Every trainee who completes their Sprint earns a Telerik Academy certificate of completion. To qualify, you must attend or watch on demand all course content and complete any homework. You can print the certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile. Feel free to tag @Telerik Academy when sharing it.

How is a Sprint different from an Upskill?

Sprints are 2-week, hands-on programs where industry leaders share practical, ready-to-use knowledge that's immediately applicable at work. Upskills, on the other hand, provide a comprehensive, 3-month journey to bridging skill gaps in a specific domain, helping you advance to the next career level.
