Applicant's Commitment

The Nebraska Dev Lab Integrated Pipeline Program is a 20-week program (starting at Tier 1) designed to prepare individuals with no (or little) software development experience to be highly effective, entry-level developers. The program is broken into four, five-week tiers. To successfully complete the program, participants must attend daily, Monday-Friday, 8:00am - 5:00pm, during each tier. While unexpected, unavoidable short absences, such as missing a day due to an illness, might occur, participants must commit to full attendance throughout each tier.

I am fully committed to completing the entire program and am fully committed to attending every day of every tier of the program (with the exception of unexpected, unavoidable short absences).
