fires up your passion in tech?
We'd love to have you!

Be Bold. Be First. Be Part of Accelerate.

We created ACCELERATE as a hub and community to support people transitioning into the tech industry.

At Yellow Tail Tech, we’ve been helping individuals transition with our Lnx For Jobs and Cloud For Jobs programs for almost a decade.
Now, we’re addressing a larger issue in the tech space: many people are interested in a tech career but don’t know where to begin.
 
They’re bombarded with bootcamp ads promising quick success and high earnings, but this isn’t the right starting point.
 
We believe in providing unbiased support for exploring the best path into tech, as it’s a personal journey with diverse paths. Before committing to a bootcamp or course, objective exploration is crucial.
 
In our ten years in the industry, We’ve identified five major challenges newcomers face when transitioning into a tech career, and ACCELERATE is designed to address these challenges:

Discover Your Tech Passion

We’re here to light up your excitement for technology. The journey into tech is like climbing a hill: it starts slow, but as you learn and explore, your enthusiasm grows. It’s not just about aiming for a big paycheck; it’s about finding what you love in the vast world of technology. Yes, the start might be tough, and there will be challenges, but as your passion grows, so does the fun.

Learn by Sharing

Giving is as important as receiving. We hold firm to the principle that contributing to the community is NON-NEGOTIABLE.
