Today Apple announced it will open Indonesia's fourth Apple Developer Academy in Bali.
Apple initially launched a Developer Academy in Jakarta in 2018. Since then, it has opened up academies in Surabaya and Batam, and more than 2,000 aspiring developers have completed the program. It's said that 90% of graduates have gone on to find meaningful employment.
"We've seen many times over that a line of code can change the world — and in Indonesia, we're investing in the creativity and skills of people determined to prove it," said Tim Cook, Apple's CEO. "We're excited by the growing developer community in Indonesia, and we look forward to investing in the success of even more coders with our fourth academy in the country."
The academy's nine-month program covers the basics of coding, as well as areas such as design, marketing, and project management, empowering students with the full suite of skills needed to become world-class entrepreneurs and developers. To encourage cross-cultural exchange, the Bali campus will accept applications not just from Indonesia, but across the globe, regardless of educational background or coding experience.
The academies in Indonesia have welcomed students from a variety of personal and professional backgrounds. To date, the cohorts have comprised students from over 90 cities across Indonesia, ranging between 18 and 50 years old, each of whom brings new ideas and life experiences to app designs and business plans.
Since the first Apple Developer Academy opened in Brazil, the program has grown to more locations around the world, including Korea, Indonesia, Saudi Arabia, Italy, and the U.S.
