The bootcamp is designed to mirror the real workplace with projects, 1-2-1 feedback, a focus on personal time management, and a community to create with.

Phase 1 - Get the skills

Self-paced, minimum 12 hrs per week

Meet your technical mentor

Based on your goals, you’ll be introduced to a technical mentor who will assess your skills, create a personalised curriculum for your level, and agree on a timetable and structure that you'll be accountable to.

Mentoring-new

 

Week by week, you will cover key aspects of Unity (or Unreal) engine. You'll have materials to work through at your pace, and regular meetings with your mentor to review your progress and get feedback.

You will only move onto the next level when you have demonstrated your competencies. We move at your pace, not our schedule.

Unity training-png

 

 

In your first month, there will be workshops and tasks to help you identify the Unity roles, industries and companies that you are most suited for, giving you the direction and focus you need.  

Through group sessions with peers, a private Discord server with access to a Technical Instructor, your own Success Manager and regular industry talks, we will surround you with a community to learn with.

 Coaching

 

Phase 2 - Get the job

You will carry on meeting your mentor monthly- to ensure that your progress remains on track.

Mentoring-1

Find your first job with support to write your CV and LinkedIn, prepare your portfolio, get ready for interview, and a push to get the very best job not just the first job that is offered to you.

Collaborate in teams of programmers and artists to build real-world projects and demos that will be your route to get noticed by recruiters.

To stand out from the crowd and bring your whole self to work, you'll work with our mindset coaches, to improve your confidence, lift your ambitions, overcome barriers and find your purpose. 

Get ready for your new future. 

Built with industry, for industry

The Unity bootcamp has been designed specifically to ensure you leave ready for the real world of work. Everything is aligned around the real jobs that the industry needs filling. 

Detailed job market analysis

Our pathways are the result of a rigorous analysis of job demand. Current open vacancies, expected salaries, forecast job growth, skill shortages and industry opinion are just some of the factors we study to ensure our bootcamps match the real industry demand.

Curriculum designed for jobs

We consult extensively with hiring managers, recruiters and senior industry leads to ensure we focus on the skills and capabilities the industry needs. We constantly adapt and tailor the materials to fit the job and career that is your goal.

Created like a studio, not a school

Small groups, project-based learning, personal time management, ownership of your own goals, industry-standard communication tools, the bootcamp is designed to replicate the real world of work, so you can hit the ground running when you start your new career.

Hiring partners

We work with VFX studios, VR/XR studios, Games Studios and Architecture Studios to place our talent in jobs. Large or boutique, London-based or nationwide, in-person or remote working, we help you find the right fit for you.

My time at Mastered has been nothing but fantastic. I came into Mastered with absolutely no programming experience whatsoever, to taking on the role of a Technical Game Designer within just the span of 5-6 months, thanks to the help of my mentors!
Richard Leck

Technical artist (Alumni)
The team at Mastered is just amazing. I was working a full-time job and was going through a tough time mentally, but they were so patient with any issues I had and pushed me to find a way around problems in ways I never thought about.
Dean Isseyegh

Gameplay programmer (Alumni)
The one-on-one mentoring sessions with an experienced Unity developer were extremely useful. Even as someone with lots of programming knowledge, there was still a whole load of game-specific technology, terms, and programming paradigms I had never heard of and just knowing about them gave me the ability to pick them up and learn about them quickly.
