Thinkful

Overview

Thinkful is an online education company founded in 2012, specializing in coding bootcamps and skills training programs. It aims to help learners launch or advance their careers in technology fields such as web development, data science, cybersecurity, and UX/UI design. The company combines an online curriculum with personalized mentorship, pairing students with industry-expert mentors for one-on-one guidance.

The programs are flexible and project-based, designed to equip students with practical skills and build professional portfolios. Thinkful also offers career services, including job placement assistance and interview preparation. Initially headquartered in San Francisco and later in New York City, Thinkful has grown significantly and was acquired by Chegg in 2019. In October 2023, it was rebranded as Chegg Skills to align with Chegg’s mission of skills-based education and career readiness.
