Frequently Asked Questions
- Are your mentors paid?
- Nope. Every one of our mentors has chosen to volunteer their time. Why would they do that? Two reasons: they’re really passionate about software development and they’re just awesome people. We do have a mentor recognition program, where we pass on the praise our grads have for their mentors and throw in some rewards packages for your effort.
- My employer has a community engagement program. Can I track my volunteer hours?
- Yes! We'd be happy to verify your volunteer hours while mentoring!
