The
Digital Career Institute (DCI) - A Bridge to the Digital Future
editKey Products and Services
editThe Digital Career Institute (DCI) is a certified educational institution that specializes in qualifying talents for the digital industry. DCI offers a variety of courses tailored to the needs of the current job market. The courses offered include Web Development, Online and Digital Marketing, as well as AWS Amazon Web Services and other technical fields such as Java Backend Programming and Python Backend Development[2][4].
The courses are fully immersive and include both theoretical foundations and practical applications. In addition to technical skills, the courses also teach soft skills and agile project management methods such as SCRUM. An important component of the program is career workshops that help participants create industry-specific resumes, develop an online presence, and make themselves attractive to potential employers[2].
Main Mission and Values
editThe mission of DCI is to give everyone the opportunity to lay the foundations for a better future and to launch into a new career. Originally founded to support refugees, DCI has now set itself the goal of enabling anyone interested, regardless of age, background, or prior knowledge, to pursue a career in the technical field[3][4].
The values of DCI include equal opportunities, tolerance, and an open worldview. The institute believes in success through diversity and promotes creativity and individuality. Openness, empathy, and teamwork are central aspects of the support that stands by students at every step of their journey[3].
Sustainability Goals and Initiatives
editA central sustainability goal of DCI is the integration of refugees and career changers into the German labor market. The "Devugees" program is specifically designed for refugees and offers a one-year course program that imparts all necessary skills for technical qualification[1].
DCI works closely with over 600 corporate partners to connect graduates with the right job and offers unique networking opportunities. The courses are certified according to the Certqua AZAV (Accreditation and Approval Regulation for Employment Promotion) and can be 100% funded through education vouchers from the Employment Agency or Job Center[3][4].
Locations and Reach
editDCI has locations throughout Germany, including Berlin, Düsseldorf, Hamburg, Leipzig, Munich, Stuttgart, and other places. In addition to in-person courses, remote courses are also offered to reach a broad participant base[1][2].
Graduation and Career Support
editAt the end of the courses, participants complete three-month unpaid mandatory internships in tech companies. These internships are an integral part of the program and help graduates gain direct experience in the industry. The high placement rate of over 80% underscores DCI's success in job placement[3][4].
The Digital Career Institute thus serves as an important bridge between education and profession, enabling participants to successfully start in the digital industry and build a sustainable career.
