The Coder Academy Scholarship is one of Australia’s strongest funding opportunities for learners who want to enter the tech industry through structured, industry-focused bootcamps. Designed to support diversity and inclusion, this scholarship helps reduce tuition fees for eligible Australians who are ready to begin a career in web development or data science. The goal is simple: make high-quality tech training more accessible and open doors for under-represented learners.
When the Programme Starts
Coder Academy runs multiple cohorts each year, and scholarship applications open before each intake. New cohorts typically begin every few months, allowing learners several opportunities throughout the year to apply for funding. Once accepted, students can join the next available start date that fits their schedule.
Who the Programme Is For
The scholarship is ideal for:
• Australian citizens and permanent residents
• Women, minority groups and under-represented communities
• Career changers entering the tech industry
• Beginners seeking a structured, guided learning experience
• Learners who need financial support to join a coding bootcamp
The scholarship focuses on improving diversity within Australia’s digital workforce.
What the Programme Covers
Scholarship recipients can apply their funding to Coder Academy’s main bootcamps, which include:
• Web Development
• Data Science
• Cyber Security (varies by cohort)
Each bootcamp includes hands-on projects, industry mentorship, career coaching and real-world assessments to prepare learners for employment.
How Much the Programme Covers
The Coder Academy Scholarship typically covers up to 50% of tuition fees, depending on the applicant’s background and scholarship type.
In addition, some learners may be eligible for TechLift Australia support, which offers up to AU$6,500 in extra funding. Government initiatives may also reduce costs further.
