The Tech Academy’s mission statement is: “TO GRADUATE ENTRY-LEVEL TECHNOLOGY PROFESSIONALS THAT EXCEL IN THE BASICS OF THEIR FIELD AND THEREAFTER HAVE SUCCESSFUL CAREERS IN THE TECH INDUSTRY, AND WHOSE ACTIONS RAISE INDUSTRY STANDARDS AND SURPASS CLIENT EXPECTATIONS.” The leadership team includes Co-Founder and Chairman of the Board of Directors Jack Stanley, Co-Founder Erik Gross, and curriculum adviser Dr. Brent Wilson, who is a professor and Chairman of George Fox University’s Computer Science department. Erik Gross previously worked as a nuclear reactor operator and teacher in the Navy and has years of experience as a senior-level software developer, and Jack Stanley has years of executive and managerial experience and a background in teaching and curriculum development.

The Tech Academy’s history includes Erik Gross starting a software development company called Prosper I.T. Consulting in 2012 and founding Prosper I.T. Academy in 2013. After Jack Stanley joined at the end of 2013, one of the first actions was changing the name from Prosper I.T. Academy to The Tech Academy.

Graduates describe a range of experiences in their testimonials. Software Developer Boot Camp graduate McKay Moore reports starting a new job making about $75,000 a year and describes The Tech Academy as “a good option” for those wanting to learn, grow, and develop competency and capability in their line of work. Software Developer Boot Camp graduate Cristina Swenson states that she came out of The Tech Academy with more knowledge than some peers who went to university and says she talks to many people about The Tech Academy because she believes traditional education is not always the way to go. Software Developer Bootcamp graduate Joseph Kay says he landed a job “right out the gate” that he would not have applied for without attending, and he notes that the self-paced format allowed him to study at night while working a full-time job. Data Science Boot Camp graduate Randall Jackson reports landing a contractor role in quality assurance testing within a month or two, then being hired by another company after six months as a contractor and remaining there for more than two years, and he describes the boot camp as allowing a fast switch into a new career realm. Software Developer Bootcamp graduate Sandy Glantz reports having three different offers and being hired as a technical account manager (TAM), and notes that doing standard interviews and technical interviews a couple of times a week during the program was very helpful.
