How does it work

There are dozens of exercises in every Codenga course. You will find five types of exercises: Multiple choice, Blocks ordering, Fill in the blanks, LiveCode and TrueCode.They will test different aspects of your knowledge. You will be tasked with writing code, finding errors, choosing optimal solutions for a given problem and more.

Every chapter starts with a short presentation written in a simple, plain language. Its purpose is to introduce new concepts and techniques. Then you are tasked with the exercises. You can go back to the presentation at any time. You can also make an unlimited number of attempts when it comes to solving exercises.

It all boils down to a simple, yet very effective learning method:
 1. Learn the theory
 2. Practice with exercises
 3. Repeat until you feel confident with your skills

Learn at your own pace

We all have limited time for learning. That’s why we divided this course into short, easily digestible pieces. You can learn a new concept spending at most 15 to 20 minutes per day. And there is nothing preventing you from learning at a faster or slower pace. You can simply learn at the tempo that is most convenient for you. You can also track your progress and review the previously learned material. And don’t forget that you will have unlimited, lifetime access to the course.

Reviews and exam

During the course you will have several opportunities to review your knowledge. Every few chapters you will have to solve a set of additional tasks. It’s a great way to keep skills sharp and keep the eye on the pace of your progress. Remember that you can review any portion of the course as many times as you want.And at the end of the course you will have to solve one more set of tasks to earn a certificate of completion.
