What they ask for

Get ready to apply

Built only from what this listing states.

A short application, by our reading.

1. What to get ready

It says no documents are needed.

In their words: “Nothing to upload: open the course and start the lessons, and sign in with a free freeCodeCamp account to save your progress and earn the certification.”

2. Dates

  • No closing date is stated.
  • Start when you have the time to finish it. Our advice

Download checklist (.txt) Send to WhatsApp

The download is a small text file. You can read it later without data. It also lists each condition they set, so you can tick yourself against them. WhatsApp sends the same list to you, or to somebody helping you.

No CV yet? Make a plain one from your answers. Nothing you type is kept.

Tips for applying for a free course

General advice from us, the same for every course. It is not what this organisation says; that is above.

  • Check how many hours a week it needs, and whether you have that time for the whole length of it.
  • Check how much data it uses. Videos use a lot; ask whether there is a download or text version, or use free Wi-Fi where you can.
  • Finish it. A finished course with a certificate is worth more on a CV than three started ones.
  • When you finish, add it to your CV with the name, who gave it, and the month you finished.

If there is an interview or a test

  • If there is a test to get in, ask what it covers and practise with any free sample they give.

All our tips and messages to copy. Practise answering, with nothing kept. Received an offer? Check whether it is real, then read before you say yes.

How to apply

You apply on freeCodeCamp's own website, not here. We never send an application for anybody and we never ask you for anything to pass on. Check their page for anything not shown here.
