19 questions

Can I start without any technology experience?

Yes. Beginner programs start with foundations and build progressively. Check the requirements on your chosen program page. Your curiosity, willingness to practise and regular study time matter more than knowing all the terminology before you start.

How do I apply for admission?

Select Apply for Admission from any page. Choose a program, then complete six short sections covering your background, course, optional referral and goals. Review everything before submitting. An application reference appears after your application is successfully saved.

Are classes online?

Briwnet School is designed around online technology learning. Your admission information confirms the timetable, teaching format and resources for your selected program. Any onsite option must be specifically confirmed by admissions before you make travel plans.

Where can I find fees and payment information?

The standard fee is USD 150 for a six-week course. Each course page shows its fee and an indicative KES equivalent. Confirm payment instructions and the final conversion with admissions. Submitting an application is not a payment or a guarantee of a place. Only follow payment instructions verified directly with the school.

Can I apply without a referral code?

Absolutely. Choose No in the referral section and continue normally. If someone referred you, enter their code, such as BRIWM050202, or their name. A missing or unverified referral never prevents a legitimate application.

What happens after I submit my application?

Your application is saved for admissions review. Keep your reference and track your status using the same email address or phone number you applied with. Admissions will confirm availability, requirements, fees and next steps. Email acknowledgement is sent when the notification service is enabled.

Do I need a laptop or computer?

Most coding, networking, data and cybersecurity exercises need regular access to a laptop or desktop. A phone is suitable for applying and reading some resources, but it may not run the software used in practical work. Tell admissions about your device before you enrol.

Can I learn while working or studying?

You can indicate weekdays, evenings, weekends or a flexible schedule in your application. Available schedules depend on the program and intake. Admissions confirms your timetable before enrolment; selecting a preference does not reserve that schedule.

How long does a course take?

Our standard courses run for six weeks, with two sessions per week and two hours per session: 12 sessions and 24 guided hours. Exact class days are confirmed for your intake. We recommend setting aside regular independent study time alongside facilitated sessions.

What will I build?

Projects vary by program: a responsive website, an application, a data dashboard, a network configuration or an authorised security assessment are examples. Your course outline explains the relevant projects. Practise explaining your decisions as well as making the work function.

Will I receive a certificate?

Courses marked with a completion certificate provide one when the specified project and assessment requirements are met. It is evidence of course completion, not a claim of a university degree, government accreditation or third-party professional certification. Confirm requirements before enrolling.

Does Briwnet School guarantee a job?

No. Practical skills and a portfolio can support your next step, but jobs, earnings and client opportunities are never guaranteed. We focus on helping you develop and demonstrate skills you can continue strengthening after your program.

How does a marketer referral link work?

A link such as briwnetschool.co.ke/apply?ref=BRIWM050202 pre-fills the referral section. Active codes show the registered referrer’s name. Your application is linked to that marketer only after server verification. If a code is not recognised, you can enter the referrer’s details manually.

Can I save my application and come back?

Yes. Choose optional draft saving on your current browser. Do not enable it on a shared device. You can move backwards without losing your answers, clear your saved draft and edit any section before submitting. Local drafts expire after seven days.

What if my connection drops while applying?

Your answers remain in the form when a request fails. With draft saving enabled, you can return on the same browser. Retry using the same form so its identifier prevents an accidental duplicate. A confirmation page and reference are your evidence of a saved application.

Where is the student and staff portal?

The planned learning portal is portal.briwnetschool.co.ke. It is separate from this admissions website and is being prepared for a later launch. Do not enter your password on unofficial websites. The portal access page will link through when the school enables it.

Can I change my chosen course after applying?

Contact admissions with your reference and the change you need. Course availability and entry requirements still apply. Please do not submit repeated applications just to change a detail; the team can update your existing record.

Can I ask a question that is not listed here?

Yes. Use Ask a question or the contact page. Tell us what you hope to learn and what is unclear. Your question is saved for the team to review. This is not live chat and there is no promise of an immediate reply.

How is applicant information protected?

Your application is used for admissions and handled through restricted administrative access. Read the privacy policy for details about your information, optional browser drafts and how to request a correction.
