The Next Generation of Diverse Tech Talent

Finding, Training & Recruiting IT Graduates by partnering with the Institute of Coding.

Graduate Tech Talent - Diverse IT Skills

Graduates with Practical Tech Skills

IT degree courses are increasingly unable to match fast-growing demand for the practical tech skills urgently required by businesses and industries.

Headed by the University of Bath and supported by the UK Government, the Institute of Coding sees 35 universities and 300 leading employers collaborate to provide tailored IT courses that match business needs.

How Does the Templeton and IoC Partnership Work?

Graduate Recruitment Services

Templeton and the IoC recruit and interview graduates and career changers from diverse backgrounds.

Bespoke IT Skills Pipeline

Templeton and the IoC design and deliver short bootcamp-style education and training funded by both the UK Department for Education and private sector employers.

Tailored to Your Goals

Course content is tailored to employer need, covering advanced and emerging technologies including AI, BI, Cyber Security, Data, ML, Software, UX & UI.

1-2-1 Support Throughout

Learners receive additional personal support and hiring process preparation, aiding young people who lack confidence/experience in professional environments, particularly diverse and disadvantaged groups.

Soft Skills Training for Young Professionals

Soft Skills & Employment Readiness

Graduates are prepared for and placed into your work environment, ready to hit the ground running and start working in your tech teams.

Harness Diverse Tech Skills

Because just 19% of the UK’s working tech professionals are female, and diverse IT specialists from minority groups leave the tech industry earlier than their colleagues, 70% of business leaders struggle to recruit diverse tech talent.

The IoC talent pipeline represents large groups of diverse tech professionals who would otherwise fly under the radar of corporate talent acquisition programmes. Whilst higher education alone will not fill the skills gap – only 16% of the UK’s IT graduates are female – 46% of IoC learners are female, with high representation across all minority groups.
