Plan for 10–15 hours per week. The mentored track includes live sessions on weekday evenings (UTC+2) recorded for async review. Self-paced is fully async.
All students have access to a community Slack with 24-hour response times. Mentored track students get direct DM access to their assigned mentor throughout the program.
