LinkedIn →WHO WE ARE
A UK training provider that teaches live, in small groups.
We deliver practical, live training in small groups, helping people build the skills and confidence to move forward in their careers.
Why we started it
We started Ashwood after watching a friend pay £6,000 for a “data science bootcamp” that turned out to be a video library and a Slack channel. She never spoke to a human. Nobody noticed when she stopped logging in. Everything here is a reaction to that: taught live, capped at twenty-four, a named mentor, and three months of support after the teaching stops.

One credential, with a sentence of context
Competitors show twenty-five badges with no explanation. Past about a dozen, a logo wall stops reading as proof and starts reading as anxiety.
