Good evening dear all, I am a guy around 30years, learnt draftsmanship and then went ahead to obtain a Diploma in Architectural technology.
I have been practicing for years now and I must say I'm good at what I do,at least I make money from the drawings, building executions and supervisions. I have read countless times how lucrative and the prospect coding and programming comes with in this age.
The question is, I have obtained the HND form of Federal polytechnic Ado but there's this program I registered for online and I have been selected out many appliccants to be part of the 50 persons that would be trained for 4 months for 7 days a week,(Monday to Wednesday virtual classes and Thursday to Sunday physical classes)
note: this comes with stipends but the bone of contention is once given admission for HND it would be upheaval to run such a program with my academics because Architecture itself comes with lots of commitments.
Extra.. During my ND days, I couldn't keep a girlfriend because Architecture no be your mate, outta about 120 of us, we had just 6 females and many didn't graduate with us because of their complacency.
Please i could make use of advices.

what happens to doing both of them

Word from the representative of the Elders.

My brother @OP,
Knowing well that both Archi. & CODING takes time and serious commitments and practicing:

1. GO FOR CODING.
2. RUN HND LATER.
3. If two of them can run parallel with 65% CODING Physical presence, then HND 40%, RUN THE TWO PACKAGE CAREFULLY.

I wish you Goodluck.

Oga 4 month training will only give you a headstart in programming. Infact you won't be able to build sh*t forget about their sugar coated mouth. If you don't have passion just go for architecture jeje. Programming no be beans

Re: What Should I Go For, HND In Architecture Or 4 Month Intensive Coding/programmin by 1x2x3: 6:20pm On Mar 25, 2022

Boss leave the HND go do the coding. You can easily be raking in 6 figures monthly then go back to do HND.

If to say I see this opportunity then I for no try BSc...

I will suggest you go for the coding boot camp, you already have an ND qualification, the additional training might prepare you for a career in Software Architecture, so you will still be an Architect

If you love yourself go for coding.

..never. Architecture students design every minute of their school life. As a student then, there were times we would go 2 days without bathing, cooking etc. Going out is completely out of it. girlfriends? Whose time will you sacrifice.
You can count how many days in a session you get up to 5 hours sleep at a stretch.
During the last one month before defence, our beds will hang on one side of the wall because we can't afford to sleep. You only sleep when your head starts aching and yet you can't sleep more than 3 hours in 24 hours.
You sit and draw from morning till night and from night, you still sit on your drawing table watching the day break.
Funny thing, you will never still meet up with the deadline before defence. You will just do as much as you can.
Only those who had Architecture students as friends, lodgemates or roommates can relate.

Your architecture training has already prepared you well to be a first-class Software Developer or even Software Architect.

In the UK, I trained as an Aerospace Engineer over a four years period, in between my holiday breaks, I would complete three months of boot camps training in system analysis, C Language and C++ this was in the early 1990s, within three months of graduating, I was being offered graduate trainee jobs, with the like of IBM Business Consulting. I went back into Engineering but after 5 years, returned to IT and have never looked back.

The same skill that is required to design a house is required to design an E2E application like a fuel and freight management system for Shell or SITA.

If you are very good at your job you can be running your company with a small team of developers working on complex projects and fulfilling your dreams and independence.

My advice is that you take on the boot camp training, we live in the digital age.

Good luck

My advice: Try and combine both the hnd and the coding, that hnd will increase ur earning Power. It may take years b4 ur coding skills starts earning you income.

Not true. Years ke. If he is dedicated. In 15 months.he should be on a serious pathway to becoming a junior developer.

Very true, I can't fantom why this is so. Although i'm trying to overcome this in my ARCON Defence.

Bro stick to your architectural line, strive to become really good at what u do, don't switch careers like that, rather augment the necessary part of coding to your architectural work( The basics only).

. Nice advice but I'm a realist, I try as much as possible to be at top of my games whenever wherever, so the idea of planning to fail is a no no for me.

As an Architectural graduate myself I advice you go for the coding now and eventually you can go for your HND. I won something like this in kwara state were I learn about furniture design from an innovative technology college and with architecture knowledge I learned a lot.

I will explain a few things. That you learn coding doesn't make you a programmer, it will take a while for you to get the kind of skill and patronage you may want. Since you are good at architecture you can do your HND and still learn to code in your spare time.
Programming is very broad and it's not a learn for 4 months and become a millionaire thing. If making money is your reason for learning then don't bother as tit won't give you the "immediate" gratification you may seek, you can't learn to drive a car in a day and call yourself an expert

1. I hate that they give such little time between acceptance and start of classes.

2. Take the coding class.

3. Forge into the tech space and see what you can do there.

4. You already have an ND. Nothing stops you from practising as a draughtsman.
