The second cohort of the 42 Tirana program will start in May 2026.
At 42, we believe in differentiation and inclusivity. The education model focuses on project-based learning and teamwork, rather than theoretical education. As we integrate the latest educational innovations, our goal is to empower the next leading generation of IT talent.
Our students develop a unique mindset that makes them resourceful and adaptable in a world where technologies evolve rapidly and often unexpectedly. With 85% of the jobs that will exist in 2030 not yet invented, our students are self-driven to continue learning and adapting to meet the challenge.
42 gives everyone a chance to receive excellent training in promising trades around the world. Since 2019, after the success of 42 in Paris and other locations, the ambition of 42 is to develop the largest global network of innovative tuition-free IT schools that are accessible to all. Each campus ties strong links with local ecosystems to offer students the 42 pedagogy everywhere, all the time.
The second cohort of the 42 Tirana program will start in May 2026.
Registrations are open year-round. Be sure to check the available Piscine dates before applying.
“Piscine” is the French word for “swimming pool.” You will spend one month diving deep into our methods to find out whether 42 really is made for you or not.
We have two Autumn Piscines planned for 2026, and applications are open.
| 1st Piscine: | August 24 – September 18 |
| 2nd Piscine: | October 6 – October 30 |
The meetings are organized in the months preceding each Piscine. For 2026 Autumn Piscines, join weekly introduction meetings starting April 22 at Blue Pyramid’s Cube.
