WorldOpp Employment

WorldOpp Employment (alternatively known as WorldOpp apprenticeship and WorldOpp Fellowship; hereinafter, the Employment) is the process in which graduates from WorldOpp Bootcamp start out as apprentices working part-time for WorldOpp Fellow Staff, later become full-time employees, and finally move to independent work for their own companies and/or other employers.

Education is another vital part of the Employment. At the same time, study schedule starts with 35 hours a week and gradually goes down to 5 hours a week within 8 months.

WorldOpp Pipeline

The Employment is the final stage of WorldOpp Pipeline.

Curriculum

No single curriculum exists; learning plans are crafted for every WorldOpp fellow individually.

For accountants

Aspiring accountants may concentrate on international or American accounting. Business law is a significant part of the curriculum for any accountant.

For business analysts

Traditionally, information technology projects is the main focus for aspiring business analysts within WorldOpp Pipeline. Usually, they work closely with customers to understand their needs and systems engineers to suggest the solutions.

For project managers

Aspiring project managers may concentrate on Agile methodology, concepts of PMBOK Guide or both.

For systems engineers

These fellows are employees of local companies that support the programme. Their compensation depends on the employer's payroll schedule; however, the fellows often receive some portion of what skilled workers are paid. Traditionally, the fellows are placed in project manager, business analyst, Scrum master, product owner, and tech lead jobs.
