INSIDE ASHWOOD
What it is actually like to study here
A week in the programme, who teaches you, what happens in the three months after the teaching stops, and what happened to the people who finished. No brochure language.
THE COMMITMENT
Saturdays and Sundays, two sessions a week.
Two live sessions at the weekend, with additional time for independent learning during the week. Session times are set for each cohort and confirmed before you enrol.
- MONOwn work~2 hrs

THE FORMAT
Live, small, and taught by people who do the job.
Live, not a video library
Taught live by a practitioner. Recordings go up the same night if you miss one.
24 people, never more
Small enough that your mentor knows your name and your project by week two.
One-on-One Expert Doubt Support
Opt for personalised 1:1 sessions with an expert to resolve your doubts and get individual guidance.

OUTCOMES
What happened to people who finished
Every figure on this page is dated and sourced. Where we do not have the data, we say so.
- 5400
- graduates since March 2023
- 87.99%
- into a new role within six months
- 4751
- of 5400 responded to the survey
- 40%
- salary increase
How we measured this
Surveyed all 5400 graduates from the March 2023 to March 2025 cohorts in January 2026. 4751 responded, a 87.99% response rate. “New role” means a change of employer or job title after completing. Salary figures are self-reported and unverified. Non-responders are excluded, which will bias the figure upward — we have not adjusted for it.
