What an exciting journey it’s been for me!

After wrapping up my bootcamp at Potnov Computer School, I landed my first job as a product manager, despite the current challenging job market. It’s clear that they go above and beyond in their education, equipping you with knowledge not just in the Quality Assurance Engineering field. I landed my very first internship thanks to them! Their quality education helped me showcase my skills and knowledge to my company. They’re truly going all out to help you break into the job market. I want to send out a big ‘thank you’ to Sofia, Olga, and Janna. And of course, a special shout out to Artem as well – I’m very grateful for all your help!

A big thanks to all the teachers

Having a computer science degree and teaching experience, I initially faced challenges launching a career in software after moving to the US. Thanks to Portnov Computer School, that dream became a reality. The school’s well-structured program and supportive teachers gave me vital skills and created a lively learning environment.

I received my first job offer one month after graduation

The Portnov Computer School was recommended to me by my friend who graduated from the school a year earlier and found a QA job two months after passing his job clearance. The School helped me to learn the basics of Software Quality Assurance and has been extremely helpful in building my job resume and preparing me for job interviews. I wanted to say a special “Thank You” to Galina R., who interviewed me during my job clearance. Her recommendations were extremely helpful during my job interviews and contributed a lot to my success in finding a job. I received my first job offer one month after graduation and the second (which I accepted) 7 months after graduation. I also wanted to thank Julia and Sofia for their support.

Knowledge in Manual testing, mobile, SQL, API and even Automation testing and understating the filed itself.

Gratefully I highly recommend Portnov Computer School to anyone looking for a successful career in IT field.

Thank You once again, you have changed my life 🙂

Joining Portnov Computer School in June 2022 has been an incredible journey that I am truly grateful for

The teachers at the school were exceptional, providing excellent instruction and creating a supportive learning environment. The classes struck a perfect balance between theory and hands-on practice, equipping me with a solid foundation in QA.
The internship program offered by Portnov Computer School was a standout experience. It provided invaluable practical training, allowing me to apply my knowledge and gain real-world experience. Thanks to the internship, I was able to secure a job in the QA industry within a couple of months.
I highly recommend Portnov Computer School to anyone looking for a transformative learning experience and a fast track to a successful career in QA. The quality of education, dedicated teachers, and impactful internship program make it a top choice for aspiring professionals.

I enrolled in the course in June 2022 and immediately wished I’ve done it sooner

I enrolled in the course in June 2022 and immediately wished I’ve done it sooner. You spend 4-6 months in school learning about QA extensively and then you change your life forever. I never thought I’d end up in IT without specific college education, but Portnov Computer School made this dream possible.
The teachers are extremely knowledgable and work closely with their students. The material presented is up to date and covers the basics of different QA avenues. The internship offered at the end of the course is an extensive program that covers all your gaps from the previous classes.
Me and my husband both attended Portnov Computer School and as of today, we are both employed as QA Engineers.
Portnov Computer School is like Santa on Christmas – they make your wishes come true. Thank you, dear School, we will always be grateful to you!

In March 2023, right after Portnov Computer School, I was hired as a QA Engineer. I am very grateful to the school!

I had previous experience in the IT field, some programming skills, graduated coding bootcamp, but wasn’t hired directly as QA. Although I had good combination of in-demand skills it was the projects of the Portonov Computer School that became the final touch in getting the desired position. The structured presentation of the material without haste and leaders who gave right altitudes and directions – this what I was looking for as an advanced student. Also I met a person couple years ago who moved to my state for a new role QA Engineer – this made me sure in my choice.
Wish everyone good luck! Keep learning no matter what!

Everything I have, I owe to Portnov Computer School. I am a second generation Portnov Computer School Alumn.

My father became certified here a long time ago when we came to the United States from Russia, and has been working in the field for more than a decade. I too have followed in his footsteps. I started my journey in June of 2022 and have completed a very comprehensive course, as well as an internship with the school. The covers all the bases, which included understanding test methodologies, creating test cases, using web technologies for testing, API, command line, database verification, introduction to automated test scripts, mobile app testing and most importantly: the course offers a look into a real software development environment, with necessary resources to make you job market-ready. I have completed the course and have started working at a company in the medical/biotech field called Lighthouse Worldwide Solutions and have been there since February of 2023. I believe that PCS offers the most insight to become a certified Software QA and your success story may just start here too, same as it did for my father and same as it did for me!

During the course, I’ve gained practical, hands-on experience in various testing methodologies

For several years, I’ve been contemplating a career switch and whether I should take the QA course at Portnov School, and now I’m glad that I did. During the course, I’ve gained practical, hands-on experience in various testing methodologies such as manual and automated testing that I can apply in real-world scenarios. The program is both rigorous and very comprehensive which made it challenging for me at times, but the rewards are definitely worth it!
The school staff and the instructors are very knowledgeable, patient and dedicated to ensure that their students receive the best possible education. That being said, I’m particularly grateful to Janna Spector and Olga Chekhanovskaya for their experience based insights, support and encouragement during the times of doubt – it made a huge difference. They are truly great instructors! I would like to express my appreciation to Julia for her prompt responses and assistance whenever I had questions. Also, a big thanks to Sofia Pravdina for helping me to find the internship.
Overall, I had a very positive experience with the QA course and I’m excited about the opportunities that lie ahead for me in my new career path.

The School gave me precisely what I was looking for – the necessary knowledge and experience

The School gave me precisely what I was looking for – the necessary knowledge and experience.  I landed an internship within the first week of graduation, and this is only the beginning!
The Course covered so many subjects – from Manual to Automation and was the best overall study material I could find online – I tried Udemy and LinkedIn before and was just confused and overwhelmed. The School provided a comprehensive structure and real teachers who currently work in the field and went through what I am going through – having a live tutor so that I can ask questions and hear their first-hand experience is simply priceless. The best part is that they also teach you how to pass the interview itself – there are so many parts to getting a job in the field that you are exploring, and a lot of times we don’t concentrate on that part – the School knew that we would need guidance and was happy to provide it to us.
