How long does it take to become a QA tester from scratch?
There’s no exact “how many weeks” number — it depends on your workload — but there are benchmarks. Our students study 5–10 hours a week on average, combining it with work or family, and learn at their own pace, faster or slower.
Real examples: Yulia built her first portfolio in 5 weeks while still in school. Dasha, after a year in manual testing, moved into automation in 6 weeks. Sofia needed 8 weeks to get an internship offer. From the first lesson to getting hired takes 2–6 months on average — and that already includes the job search, not just studying.
