Jumpstart your IT career
as a QA Engineer
in just 6 months 

Absolutely! No prior experience is needed. The first 6 weeks of the program focus on Core Programming Fundamentals, where you'll build essential programming skills with mentorship from industry experts. You'll also cover the most important Soft Skills topics and skills. This phase helps you transition smoothly into QA - if you decide not to continue, you'll still earn a Core Programming Certificate. And if you have some QA experience, you’ll acquire practical skills during the program while being mentored by our seasoned tech and soft skills trainers. You’ll master modern technologies, the best QA principles, and the latest tools to impress employers and get ready for a successful IT career jumpstart

Just start - it's risk-free, and we made it as friendly as possible! With a small 500 BGN investment (paid upfront - before the start of the program), you’ll spend 6 weeks building programming knowledge and earning a Core Programming Certificate. If you decide to continue after 6 weeks, pay the remaining BGN 5,000 (in full or in installments) by the end of week 6. If not, no further commitment - you walk with a certificate and new knowledge.

Yes, you could save BGN 1,484! We’re making the path to an IT career more accessible by meeting all the standards to be part of the "Qualification, Skills, and Career Development for Employed Individuals" project, funded by the Human Resources Development Program (2021-2027) and co-financed by the European Union through the European Social Fund+. This allows you, if eligible, to reduce your Alpha tuition with BGN 1,484 through financial support.

Who Can Apply?

Yes, you can. If you are employed, you can spread your tuition payments over 12-24 months through a bank loan with one of our partner banks - Allianz, ProCredit, or TBI.

We continue to offer students the option to pay for their studies with a tuition fee deferral with the help of the European Investment Fund (EIF) and our partnership with Allianz Bank Bulgaria. Individuals must be Bulgarian citizens and 18 years of age or older for the bank loan. They must have completed the application process for the Alpha program and be admitted to the chosen program. 

If you have any questions, contact us at info@telerikacademy.com for guidance.

**The BGN 248/monthly for 24 months is an illustrative installment payment method. Different terms may apply based on borrowers’ credit score, creditworthiness, and the bank’s current offering.

You can drop out within the first 6 weeks - you only pay the 500 BGN that covers your Core Programming Certificate, mentorship, hands-on training, and full Soft Skills training - so even if you decide not to continue, you’ll still gain valuable skills. If not, no further commitment. Our advice? Complete the first 6 weeks before making a final decision. This way, you’ll have a strong foundation and better understand whether QA is the right path for you.

We've had students of various ages and stages of their lives in the past and they’ve succeeded in their journeys to a successful QA career. Age is just a number – the only thing that matters here is your motivation to learn, develop new skills and commit to the program. 

You only need to be 18 years of age or older to enroll in the course. If you're younger than 18 years, you can check our Telerik Academy School programs.
