Alchemy Stats
As one of the only code schools specializing in mid-level placements, we are proud of our grads’ collective and recent success.
But our results are more than just numbers. Our graduates tell us time and again that the people skills, self-awareness, and relationships built while at Alchemy are just as valuable as the technical skills they acquired, and have a direct impact on their overall quality of life.

Darrin Moser
Software Development Manager at DiscoverOrg
I don't have to worry about the technical chops of an Alchemy grad, and instead can focus on finding those hungry, passionate people that are propelling our organization to the next level.
Kent Busby
Software Engineering Manager at Lithia Motors
Alchemy provides hires who have the skills to get the job done but also are energetic and excited about the work they do.
Nedim Filipovic
Front End Developer at PayClearly
One challenge with non-traditional hires is that while they might know how to code, they don't know how to do their job, and require a lot of hand-holding to get started. This is not the case with Alchemy grads. They don't just know how to write code, they know how to fully be software engineers!
Daelynn Moyer
Engineering Manager at Fast Radius
What I like about Alchemy is the attention not only to coding, but to process, to human interaction, and to all the tangible and intangible elements necessary for success in a software development role.

Students come into the program with their own goals, their, "why." We provide them with the tools that help them get there. So at its core, I am helping Alchemists achieve their wildest dreams. What could be better than that?
