A unique concept

The 42 method

No lectures, no teachers, no textbooks. At 42 Initiative you learn by doing, surrounded by your peers — a model proven across more than 50 campuses worldwide.

Peer-learning

Learning between peers. Students evaluate, help and correct one another. Success is collective.

Project-based learning

You learn by building. Each project is a concrete challenge that unlocks the next skill. Theory follows practice.

Gamification

Progress follows a system of levels, experience points and validations that keeps learning engaging.

Autonomy

You learn how to learn — a skill that will serve you for life, far beyond code.

Open 24/7

The campus is accessible at any hour. You organise your learning the way that suits you.

No prerequisites

No degree, no experience and no love of maths needed. Only motivation counts.

Why it works

Learning to solve problems

The job of a software engineer never stops evolving. Rather than transmitting fixed knowledge, the 42 method develops the ability to learn independently, to research, to collaborate and to solve problems — the skills that truly matter in tech.

The result: autonomous, creative and job-ready profiles, sought after by companies around the world.

Recognition

A globally recognised education

Graduates earn a 42 skills certification recognised by employers across the global network. We are working to secure local accreditation in Kazakhstan so the qualification is fully recognised nationally. (Details to be confirmed.)
