FAQ
Can I work and study at the same time at BeCode?
Classes take place from Monday to Friday, from 9 am to 5 pm. Given the intensity of our programme, it is therefore not feasible to combine a training course at BeCode with a job.

Not at the moment, but Bruxelles Formation and Le Forem do offer a series of online courses within IT.
In which language is the BeCode training given?
Tip: From now on, watch your TV shows and films with English subtitles.
How much does a training at BeCode cost?
At BeCode we do like to invest in your future! The training costs are fully covered by BeCode’s partners and sponsors so you don’t have to pay any tuition fee.
