Case Study: Generation achieves 90% Java job placement and 3.43x salary growth with Codecademy from Skillsoft

How Generation is Placing More Candidates at Higher Salaries with Codecademy

Generation is a nonprofit that prepares people for life-changing careers by transforming education-to-employment systems. When COVID-19 made in-person instruction impossible, Generation urgently needed a high-quality, affordable, practice-focused online technical learning partner that could scale across its global network and meet employer demand for developer talent.

Generation selected Codecademy for its interactive, practice-heavy learning environment and blended it with instructor-led guidance and group projects. The Junior Java Developer program exceeded expectations: 90% of Java learners were placed within 180 days, graduates saw a 3.43× increase in income, and more than 3,300 Generation learners have used Codecademy as the nonprofit expands programs and reaches new markets.
