Common Core

The Common Core at 42 is the foundational curriculum that equips students with essential technical and problem-solving skills over a flexible period, typically ranging from 18 to 24 months. It includes mastering programming languages, particularly C and C++, which are central to the learning process. Students work on various software development projects that develop their skills in system-level and object-oriented programming. After completing the core, students have the opportunity to pursue specialized certifications such as IT Architecture Expert RNCP 7 or IT Solutions Designer and Developer RNCP 6, which open doors to advanced roles in the tech industry.
