“After 8 years teaching 5th grade, I never thought I could become an engineer. Podium gave me the skills and the connections. I start at Outschool next month.”
“The curriculum is perfectly designed for people who think like educators. Everything clicked because the projects were things I actually wanted to build for my students.”
“The job placement support is the real differentiator. They literally emailed hiring managers on my behalf and set up interviews. I had three offers within two weeks of graduating.”
