What you get
About Thakaa Academy
Thakaa Academy is a skills-first academy for university students who want to be job-ready in tech before they graduate — built by the team behind the Thakaa AI platform. We don't replace your degree; we close the gap between coursework and what a hiring manager actually tests for. You work through short, focused tracks with an AI coach available any time, sit real skill assessments that mint a verified badge (not a self-graded quiz), and leave with a public portfolio and a one-click bilingual CV employers can see directly.

Frequently asked questions
How is this different from my university degree?
It complements it, not replaces it. Your degree covers the theory over several years; each track here is short and focused on the specific practical skills employers actually screen candidates on.
What is a verified skill badge?
A skill assessment you sit and that we score on the platform — a passing result becomes a badge on your portfolio that a self-made profile cannot fake.
Do I get a CV?
Yes — a one-click printable CV in both English and Arabic, generated from your portfolio.
