What’s different about our training?
Classes last about a week. No need to spend months in a training program or platform that slows down your employees and product roadmap.
As part of our onboarding, we listen and learn what you want to achieve from the class. That way, we can tailor the curriculum to achieve your goals.
Our instructors are experts in Android, Kotlin, iOS, and web. Basically, if you can code a mobile app in it, we can help you learn it.
We teach the ‘why’ so best practices can be used in future projects. That means your developers can get your project done now while remaining prepared for whatever comes up later.

Corporate Training FAQs
We pack a lot of information into our trainings—some students say that a week with Big Nerd Ranch is like a semester in college. Our courses are not for novice programmers, but we have great instructors who know how to guide their students every step of the way. Each course we teach has prerequisites outlined to help determine if the course is the right fit for the team.
Courses are taught by instructors who spend the rest of their time creating solutions for our app development clients. This means that they have real-world experience and understand the problems that you are facing. In addition, they are best-selling authors of our programming books and spend their free time reviewing one another’s work and contributing to open source code.
Yes! While our courses provide a great overview of the topic, we recognize that some companies may need additional training in specific subjects. We’re happy to dive more deeply into certain topics and skip topics that may not be relevant to the team taking the class. For those needing more customized material, we can work with you to identify the topics that matter most and then deliver the content that will fit your needs.
What our clients have to say
My goal coming into the class was to attain enough knowledge to be able to muddle my way thru building and debugging my company’s Swift-based iOS apps with more than a rudimentary understanding of what was going on. That goal was surpassed. At this point, I’m looking at apps on my phone with a new understanding of what is going on behind the scenes.
Big Nerd Ranch is a trusted partner for Google. Their deep knowledge and expertise in technical training have proven invaluable over the years; they are innovative, reliable, and provide first-rate training to Googlers. I look forward to working with them for years to come.
