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. Split over two phases, first, you will discover the career options available to Unity developers and develop the required technical skills. Then, our team will support you to build your portfolio, develop your mindset and get an actual job.
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.
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.
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.
You will carry on meeting your mentor monthly- to ensure that your progress remains on track.
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.
When you’re ready, you will have the opportunity to take exams to show to prospective employers the level that you have reached and stand out from the crowd.
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.
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.
You will have 1-to-1 and group video calls, live online classes, personal feedback, technical help and emotional support from a team of people invested in your success.

We're proud of all the creative professionals, from every walk of life, who have been through one of our career accelerators since 2015. With our new Unity Engine bootcamp, we want to continue this commitment to finding diverse voices and original talent who've been shut out for too long. Outsiders, misfits and changemakers need apply.
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!
