The WeShape Tech Academy is our career accelerator designed to empower and support underrepresented talent driven by a passion for technology.

Fast trackers are technical consultants ready to be deployed alongside existing WeShape project squads to accelerate and support project delivery, at a leaner commercial rate.

Fast trackers are employed directly from two industry leading bootcamps - Le Wagon and Google Katalyst. We further their education through mentorship and certifications, plus commercial training to ensure they add value to your project from day 1.

We decided to name our consultants ‘Fast Trackers’ as they are designed to enable senior WeShape consultants deliver critical-path projects quicker, more efficiently, and to a higher standard.

By deploying Fast Trackers alongside existing WeShape project teams, we have found that projects are accelerated by up to 50%.

Fast Trackers can be deployed from project inception, or be brought in at critical milestones to ensure project delivery - we can deploy Fast Trackers in less than 2 weeks from scoping.

Case Studies

Case Study - Consultant

"Mo was an instrumental part of our team - he helped accelerate the whole project through his support on testing, writing up documentation, taking on tickets independently, and eventually even refactoring on the front-end apps with the client's development team.

Mo joined us on his first project in technology - he showed a great grasp on the key concepts from his Le Wagon course, and then managed to improve even further throughout his time with us, including representing our consultant team in company wide sprint reviews.

By supporting the team on non-critical path projects and tasks, he managed to free up an extra day per week of the team's time, to focus on new project delivery."

Case Study - Client

"Our Fast Tracker, Craig, has been accelerating our delivery since he hit the ground running from day 1.Craig's initial role was to support our existing team, and he did so through helping the team with our cloud migrations, refactoring work, and testing.

Since the, he's taken full responsibility for individual projects, and is now taking lead on our agile processes, managing projects end-to-end, and guiding other team members son our new tech.

He's now customer-facing for us, and leads product discussions and feedback calls. It's been great to see how quickly he's grown in both technical skill and confidence during his time here thanks to the support the Tech Academy have given him."
