Frequently Asked Questions

If you have more questions, feel free to talk to us! Play

Do I need to know how to code?

Although the answer has generally been "yes," we are now witnessing a significant change in our latest cohorts. Many clinicians and health tech managers, even those without any coding background, are successfully creating apps with the assistance of AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude and Cursor. While you will still need to complete coding assignments to graduate from the bootcamp, the threshold for "who can code" has significantly lowered. If you think you can go the extra mile, and learn how to build with AI tools, join our next batch, and let's build together!

How and when can I attend the live sessions?

You can attend the live sessions on Wednesdays at 3 PM UTC. There is one live class per week, with week 1 of a module having the Kickoff session, and week 2 being the Demo Day. In case most of the class is finding a module difficult, week 3 will be unlocked with an extra class. The sessions will take place on Zoom, which is accessible through a link provided on the E-Learning platform. You will also receive timely reminders by email and on the Slack community. Any delays will also be announced over email and Slack.

If I miss a live session, can I watch it later?

Yes. If you miss a live session, you can view the recordings later. All live sessions will be recorded and the recordings will be available for viewing on the E-Learning platform 30 minutes after each session ends.

How do I get help if I get stuck on my application?

If you get stuck on your application, you can get help through community Slack support, one-on-one sessions with your assigned coding instructor, or one-on-one sessions with Dr. Sidharth Ramesh. You are also free to ask your questions and get help during the live sessions!

How can I schedule a 1-1 session?
