Coding Bootcamp Market Report 2025

The coding bootcamp market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $3.58 billion in 2024 to $4.13 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15.5%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to growth in the tech industry, a rise in demand for developers, rapid digital transformation, an increased need for full-stack developers, and a rise in access to learning resources.

The coding bootcamp market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $7.26 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15.1%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to rising demand in underdeveloped countries, growth in the gig economy, the increasing popularity of freelancing, a rise in adaptive learning, and rising demand for cybersecurity training. Major trends in the forecast period include coding boot camps incorporating soft skills, integration of virtual reality to enhance learning, advancements in decentralized learning platforms, development of the pay-per-skill model, and enterprise partnerships for employee upskilling.

The forecast of 15.1% growth over the next five years reflects a modest reduction of 0.1% from the previous estimate for this market. This reduction is primarily due to the impact of tariffs between the US and other countries. Tariff barriers are likely to strain U.S. tech education providers by increasing costs for cloud-based coding environments and automated grading systems sourced from Estonia and India, potentially raising tuition fees while limiting access to hands-on programming training tools. The effect will also be felt more widely due to reciprocal tariffs and the negative effect on the global economy and trade due to increased trade tensions and restrictions.

The growing demand for skilled programmers is expected to drive the expansion of the coding bootcamp market in the future. Skilled programmers are professionals who specialize in writing, testing, and optimizing code across various programming languages to develop software, applications, and systems efficiently. The need for skilled programmers is increasing due to factors such as digital transformation, the rise of emerging technologies, automation, the growing importance of cybersecurity, and the expansion of remote work and global tech ecosystems. Coding bootcamps play a crucial role in meeting this demand by providing intensive, industry-focused training that equips individuals with practical coding skills, helping to bridge the talent gap in the technology sector. For example, according to data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) in August 2024, employment for software developers, quality assurance analysts, and testers is projected to grow by 17% from 2023 to 2033, a rate significantly higher than the average for all occupations. Thus, the increasing need for skilled programmers is fueling growth in the coding bootcamp market.

Companies in the coding bootcamp industry are increasingly focusing on technological innovations, such as artificial intelligence (AI) bootcamps, to enhance learning experiences, offer personalized education, and meet the growing demand for AI and machine learning skills. An AI bootcamp is an intensive, short-term program designed to teach learners practical skills in artificial intelligence, machine learning, and data science through hands-on projects and industry-relevant curricula. For example, in September 2023, Springboard, an online education platform based in the US, launched a machine learning engineering and AI bootcamp for university partners. This program includes flexible online learning, hands-on projects, one-on-one mentorship, career coaching, and a job guarantee, ensuring that students acquire industry-relevant AI and machine learning skills for high-demand tech roles. The bootcamp covers advanced topics, such as large language models and generative AI, and helps students gain proficiency in popular frameworks and tools such as TensorFlow, Scikit-Learn, and AWS.

In February 2023, Perdoceo Education Corporation, a US-based education company, acquired Coding Dojo for $52.8 million. This acquisition aimed to expand its portfolio of online academic institutions by integrating Coding Dojo’s specialized software engineering bootcamp programs. By leveraging Coding Dojo's expertise in training software engineers in programming, data science, and cybersecurity, Perdoceo sought to enhance its educational offerings and support workforce development in the technology sector. Coding Dojo is a US-based company focused on providing coding bootcamps and corporate training.

The sharp rise in U.S. tariffs and the ensuing trade tensions in spring 2025 are taking a toll on the professional services sector, especially within legal, consulting, architectural, and engineering fields. Increased duties on imported technology, software, office hardware, and digital infrastructure have pushed up operational costs for firms that rely on global systems and resources. Cross-border consulting engagements are experiencing delays and higher expenses due to elevated travel costs and limited access to international data and tools. Moreover, industries heavily impacted by tariffs such as manufacturing, construction, and logistics are reducing their reliance on outsourced services, dampening demand for professional support. In response, service providers are reassessing pricing models, strengthening ties with domestic vendors, and accelerating the adoption of AI and automation to maintain profitability and client satisfaction in an increasingly volatile environment.
