FAQ

Questions desk

Answers are grouped so procurement, engineers, and people ops land in the right paragraph. Nothing here is a disguised upsell—limitations sit beside benefits.

Programs

Do you run live sessions in Thailand time?

Cohort calls default to ICT weekday evenings or weekend intensives listed on each syllabus. Self-paced tracks include optional office hours that rotate through ASEAN-friendly windows.

What is not bundled with tuition?

Cloud vendor fees, exam vouchers, employer procurement steps, and personal hardware are excluded. Pricing pages spell out what mentors grade versus what your IT team must approve.

Mentorship

How fast is written feedback?

Cohort SLAs target three business days for standard assignments, faster during capstone crunch. We disclose slower windows during Thai public holidays.

Can my manager sit in on reviews?

Yes with notice—useful for upskilling sponsors. We do not record mentor critique without written consent from everyone on the call.

Technical

Which Python versions do you standardize on?

Labs target 3.11+ with uv or pip workflows documented in the template repo. Legacy 2.x code appears only as migration reading, not runnable exercises.

Will you access my employer systems?

No. You bring sanitized samples or use Bridgemesh sandboxes. VPNing into production without internal approval violates acceptable use.

Logistics

Is there a physical campus?

Bridgemesh operates hybrid cohorts with optional Bangkok meetups when schedules align. Most coursework is remote-first with clear async expectations.

How do refunds interact with HR reimbursements?

Invoices list our Thai entity details; your finance team reconciles against their policy. See Returns & Refunds for statutory cooling-off notes independent of HR timing.

Honest limits

What should I not expect from these courses?

We are not a job placement agency, not a penetration testing bootcamp, and not a low-code RPA certification mill. Depth stays in maintainable Python automation with mentor-reviewed scope cuts.
