Our story

As the Low-code Academy we provide low code education, both large scale to bring people from zero to hero, as in smaller units through courses and workshops about specific subjects. This way we’re able to serve a very wide range of people, whether you are already an experienced developer or have no low code knowledge at all.

Low-code Academy has been founded by René van Hofwegen after he had set up the Mendix Academy. As a company, Low-code Academy is very young, but our knowledge and experience has been built over many years before already. And with that solid base, we already trained over 800 people from more than 10 different countries in the first two years alone.

Our trainers aren’t familiar with auto pilot – repeating the same old story over and over again. Instead, we are focused on you and your journey, regardless of your current level. We’ll help you with your first steps or take you deeper to reach more advanced levels.

Provide independent courses

We are fully focused on training and coaching (your) new Mendix developers. And in doing this, we rather collaborate than compete with Mendix partners in their drive to deliver awesome Mendix applications with their teams.

Deliver quality and personal trainings

We set our own standards and we set them high. Both quality and personal attention are very important to us. We can measure up to the quality we envision through our extensive experience, as the founder of LCA has been creating quality courses and hosting them for well over a decade. Everyone has different needs while learning, that’s why we’re committed to personal attention. Be it through a standard program, or a dedicated one specifically put together for you or your company, we’re here to guide you or your employees/trainees through the journey of learning all the necessary skills.
