The iDevOps Journey
ISA Payment
Program Cost: $22,500
iDevOps.io utilizes ISA’s or Income Share Agreements for its payment process. This means once you are placed or making above the minimum threshold after your graduation date you will be responsible for sharing a percentage of your income by making payments until your ISA is paid in full.
There are no pre-payment penalties for ISA’s and there is a 3 month grace period before you are expected to be placed and payments are expected to start.
The great thing about ISA’s is you only pay when you make above the minimum income threshold which means if you don’t have a job you don’t pay. They are typically more flexible than a traditional loan.
Students also have the ability of paying the full cost up front but generally elect to go with the ISA program.
Our ISA’s are powered by our partner Mentor Works and backed by a federally licensed bank.
Admissions Process
Unfortunately like any college or vocational school iDevOps can’t let everyone into our program. We have a limited number of available slots for each cohort.
Our admissions process is designed to find the best candidates for our training program.
Admissions Process:
- 1. Admissions Interview: This is a 30 minute interview with an admissions counselor designed to determine if you are fit for our program. Once an instructor feels you are fit for the program they will authorize you to take our online cognitive assessment and begin the MentorWorks Application Process.
- 2. Online Browser Based Cognitive Assessment: This is a logic based interactive game that utilizes machine learning to determine if you are a fit for our program based on past candidates and industry professionals data profiles.
- 3. MentorWorks ISA Application: You will also be asked to start your MentorWorks ISA application.
We have a strict admissions process as we want to give our students the best chance at succeeding.
We also want to give our hiring partners comfort knowing they will be hiring someone who is fit for the industry.
Once these three steps are completed and you have signed your Mentor Works contract we will create accounts for you and give you academic material to start on before your cohort start date.
