Proudly remote-first, Code Labs Academy offers a learning environment designed to work around where you are in Belgium. With interactive live lectures, hands-on labs, 1:1 time with instructors, and built-in teamwork with peers, you get a structured learning experience that still feels connected.
All subjects are offered in a live online learning format.
To get the most out of remote learning, you’ll need a consistent, reliable, high-speed internet connection and a laptop or desktop computer.
Live sessions run on Central European time (CET/CEST), which matches Belgium’s time zone, so you can join from anywhere in the country without time zone friction.
Frequently asked questions
What is the admissions process like?
You can apply using the Apply Now button at the top of the page.
As part of your application, we’ll ask a short question about your motivation and what you’d like to achieve (for example: upskilling, building a portfolio, or preparing for a new role).
After you submit your application, our admissions team will email you with the next steps and invite you to book time with a Learning Specialist.
In the call, your Learning Specialist will review your answers, help you choose the right programme and pace (full-time or part-time), and answer any questions about how learning works online.
If you decide to enrol, we’ll guide you through onboarding and confirm your place. You’ll then get access to our learning platform, community space, and pre-work so you can start with confidence from day 1.
Does CLA really teach anyone, from anywhere?
You can join a Code Labs Academy cohort remotely from anywhere in Belgium (and beyond), as long as the schedule works for you.
Our live classes follow Central European time (CET/CEST), which matches Belgium’s time zone.
If your availability can’t be comfortably supported by this schedule, we may not be the best fit right now, and we’ll be honest about that during your call.
What are my options for funding?
We offer multiple ways to make learning more manageable, including flexible payment plans and occasional discounts (discussed during the admissions call).
If you’re based in Belgium, you may also be able to explore country-specific routes depending on your status (employee, employer, jobseeker, self-employed) and where you live:
- Employer training budgets (common for upskilling)
- Paid training leave where applicable (e.g. Vlaams opleidingsverlof/VOV in Flanders, or congé-éducation payé in Brussels/Wallonia)
- Training vouchers and regional measures (e.g. chèques-formation in Wallonia, and Actiris-related training support in the Brussels-Capital Region)
Availability and eligibility vary by region and individual situation. Book a call and we’ll help you understand which options are worth looking into, and what information you’ll need to confirm eligibility with the relevant Belgian institution.
