CTO Academy Anmeldelser 

The CTO Academy courses are essential for anyone who is at the forefront of technology areas in companies of all sizes. The course content covers exactly everything that is needed in the routine of a CTO. The teachers are great, the e-learning tool is complete and the team is always ready to answer your questions.

My experience with the course content has just been phenomenal, just so many takeaways and tangible upskilling.

The content is engaging, relevant and current. Any aspiring tech leaders should definitely sign up for the course. I learned more in this course than I did in 4 years at University.

CTO Academy definitely has one of the best Executive Tech leader programs out there. The faculty is also very knowledgeable and most of the time connected all lectures to practical examples in a corporate setting.

I look forward to some of the other products they are developing in the future. The biggest challenge tech leaders have is to remain relevant in these uncertain times and I think CTO Academy has done a great job by bridging the gap between technology and executive management skills.

I've been following CTO Academy since around roughly it launched. At first, I found some of the blog articles insightful and informed some of the work that I did as the Head of Engineering at my startup. Also went through their Foundations program which was helpful.

Eventually I signed up to be part of the first cohort of the Digital MBA program. While there were some rough edges around it at first, by the end of the program some of them had been smoothed out. CTO Academy is a startup after all. It's hard for me to quantify how much I gained from the program over the last 11 months, but I've definitely gained a significant perspective, toolkit, and vocabulary for technical/ business leadership.

Outside of their paid offerings, their slack community group is awesome. Lots of activity and smart folks sharing resources. Definitely a perk!

I'll continue to be a fan of their work and following CTO Academy in the future.

This foundation course packs most domains a CTO will handle and provides clear visibility and distinctions of other C Suite roles, with practical insights.

CTO Academy is great place where you connect with global community of leaders and entrepreneurs. I am enjoying the conversations and for me this place is a C-Suite accelerator program. Double Value for what I have spent.

Can’t believe it’s been 2 years since sign up! At that point I was just playing around with the idea of putting my name in for managing people and signed up to get a better idea of what being CTO/VP might entail. The process gave me confidence to try it out, and mentorship helped guide me (and keep me sane) through the process. You’ve all made a difference in my professional life and I thank you for that!

I get all needed to start my future CTO job herer, with clear assets.
Thanks a lot.

While the range of content is good, the depth of content is not that great. There's much better content available on YouTube for free. Normally when we pay for a course, we expect stuff that's not available easily online. The delivery of content was also bad in some of the videos where unwanted background music takes away the focus. The only thing I liked here was the range of content and the reference links that helped build a perspective on how to prep for becoming a CTO, but on its own the content here wasn't promising enough.

CTO Academy is an amazing ecosystem.

I've only been involved in coaching and from the few sessions I've had so far, it has really helped me step up my game and answer so many questions that seemed so complicated in the past.

I had a chance to work with Sanjay and let he knows A LOT. He has ample experience and you can tell from the get go he knows what he's talking about. I hope to continue with this amazing training.

As an aspiring CTO I stumbled across CTO.Academy while looking for resources to plug any gaps in my skill. The course is good, the people involved are friendly and knowledgeable. Their Tribes program has been a positive experience. Discussing not only the things that are necessary to be good CTO but also day to day interactions and issues has been invaluable. I can recommend CTO.Academy to any aspiring tech leaders.

As an accidental CTO, I've had to grow really fast and figure out a lot of stuff on my own. Around the time I signed up I was doing a lot of searching for answers to questions like "what the hell does a cto do", "what is an effective cto", "how do I create a technology budget" and seemed to endup on CTO Academy quite a bit. I liked the ebook and the lifetime offer email.
Around that time, I was also going through my receipts and expenses for fiscal year 2018 and realized I'd spent around $300 on Udemy. Most of the Udemy courses weren't all that useful and the useful ones were technical and not really about leading people and doing the job of a technical leader.

I've taken several pages of notes, my focus right now is on trying to prove value as fast as possible.
I like how you and Jason aren't using static slides and reading off of them. That is the most annoying thing about a lot of Udemy courses, and I like how you've tried to stay pretty generic and stay away from specific technologies. That's a big plus compared to sites like PluralSight.
I really like the simple confirmation quizzes at the end.
I like the quality of the lecturers, how they focus away from technologies and instead of personal growth. they focus on how you and Jason aren't using static slides and reading off of them. That is the most annoying thing about a lot of Udemy courses, and I like how you've tried to stay pretty generic and stay away from specific technologies. That's a big plus compared to sites like PluralSight.

As a CTO of a fast growing start up I needed help to move from being very tech focused (essentially another developer), to being more managerial; having the time to work on the team and on the business. Over the past year, Sanjay my 1:1 coach has helped me build the discipline I need to do this. We've covered a range of topics from building and maintaining a product roadmap, managing technical debt, testing and QA, operational KPIs/OKRs for the team and individuals, running effective 1:1 sessions, building my own confidence, incident management, behaviours and the many other curveballs growing businesses can throw. I have since joined the CTO Academy tribes cohort to share valuable exeperiences and inspiring stories with other CTOs around the world.

I was at a critical juncture in my professional journey looking to understand my fit within the CIO, CTO, and Consultant landscape. The coaching through CTO Academy was invaluable in helping me navigate these questions, identifying areas of focus, and charting a clear plan going forward.

I can't recommend these career coaching sessions enough.
The results of these sessions (looking at my CV and LinkedIn Profiles) helped highlight my career successes and achievements no less confidently or anymore modestly than my original CV.
But bringing in Richard from CTO Academy helped me communicate my achievements in a more quietly confident, matter-of-fact manner and not the previous "screaming from the mountaintop" type of CV.
I appreciated the fact that he did this by probing and interviewing me, not dictating what to write nor making me feel stupid for my previous attempts.
The result was a profile that was accurate and could be backed up by fact but was very much written with my voice

I wanted to learn quickly about some of the tech aspects I wasn’t familiar with but also people skills like how to handle difficult team members. I signed up to CTO Academy and got excellent feedback which I instantly implemented, without spending hours and hours trying to research the same and even then not being totally sure it was the right action.
The quality of the coaching is really good. It is direct advice with no fluff.
At the end of every session we agreed on 2-3 actionable steps and issues I needed to accomplish before being reviewed at the start of the next session
I feel much more empowered now and it's not just about specific advice but more importantly about how to think like a CTO and how to approach challenges.
The coaching confirmed that mindset and beliefs are more important than anything technical when it comes to leadership.
If you’re faced with a challenge and need help then I highly recommend CTO Academy.
The money you will spend is going to save you a huge amount of learning time and you will be receiving advice from real experts, who are able to get to the root of the challenge.
Your market value will increase so taking the CTO Academy coaching programme is a no brainer for me.

Since starting and engaging on one of the Tribe groups, I am suitably impressed by the level or professionalism, organisation, encouragement, engagement and expertise.
Knowledge and experience sharing has been a huge plus with online and offline support.

The volume of support material on the website and online tools for assessments are formidable.
