How to build an academy, with Craig Bass

How do you recruit and train new software engineers? At Made Tech we run a regular academy programme, which allows us to address the IT skills shortage, increase diversity and reap many more benefits. Clare Sudbery talks to Craig Bass about how to run a successful academy. Applications for our January 2022 academy are now open! Closing date is 30th Nov 2021. All details here. Craig Bass is a principal technologist at Made Tech, and was responsible for curating and delivering our academy programme before Clare Sudbery took it over in 2020.
