Better code starts with better reviews Learn the skill that matters
Most developers write code. Few know how to review it properly. We teach you the second skill — the one that separates decent coders from engineers teams actually trust.

Why code review education exists
You've probably noticed something odd. Universities teach you algorithms, data structures, maybe some design patterns. But nobody teaches you how to actually look at someone else's code and say something useful about it.
That's a problem. Because in real development work, reviewing code is half the job. And most people learn it badly — by copying whatever their first tech lead did, good or bad.
We built these programs after watching too many talented developers struggle with this gap. Not because they couldn't code, but because nobody showed them how to evaluate code properly.
What you'll actually learn
Practical skills you can use immediately in your current role or team
Reading code critically
Not just understanding what code does, but spotting where it'll break, where it's unnecessarily complex, and where it misses the point entirely.
Giving feedback that helps
How to point out problems without sounding like you're attacking someone's intelligence. This is harder than it sounds.
Recognizing patterns
Common mistakes, anti-patterns, and architectural decisions that look fine now but create problems six months later.
Small group sessions starting September 2025
We keep classes small on purpose. Eight people maximum. This isn't a lecture hall situation where you watch someone talk at slides for three hours. You'll review actual code, get feedback on your reviews, and learn from what others catch that you missed. Sessions run Tuesday and Thursday evenings, six weeks total.
Work with real codebases
No toy examples or perfectly formatted demonstration code. You'll work with the messy, confusing, poorly documented stuff that exists in actual production systems. Because that's what you'll face at work.
Taught by people who do this daily
Our instructors are senior engineers who spend half their time reviewing code in real companies. They've seen the mistakes, dealt with the politics, and know which feedback actually gets changes made versus which just annoys people.
Applications open March 2025
We review applications individually. No automated acceptance. We want to make sure this program actually fits what you need.
What past participants say
Real feedback from developers who completed our 2024 programs
Lachlan Beaumont
Backend Developer, Brisbane
I'd been reviewing code for three years but realized I was just checking syntax and basic logic. This program showed me how to actually evaluate architecture decisions and catch subtle bugs. Wish I'd taken it earlier.
Freya Sørensen
Full Stack Engineer, Melbourne
The most valuable part was learning how to give feedback that people actually listen to. I used to leave comments that got ignored. Now I know how to frame concerns so they lead to discussions instead of arguments.
