A career break is a pause, not the end of your career.
ATLARDA runs a restart route for women returning to professional work in technology — built around what you already know, and what engineering teams hire for today.

Who this is for
If any of this is your situation
- A break after marriage or relocation
- A maternity or childcare break
- A caregiving break for family
- A pause after a role in IT, testing, support, BI or operations
- A first move into technology after years away from formal work
Why gaps do not end careers
Teams hire capability, not continuity.
What gets tested at interview is whether you can build, explain and ship. That is rebuildable — and it is what a structured restart is designed to do.
Technical rebuilding
You start from what you already know, not from zero. The plan is set at consultation.
Workflow confidence
Tickets, branches, code review and releases — so a team environment feels familiar again.
Interview rebuilding
Structured practice for explaining your break, your work and your technical decisions.

Questions
Returning to work — frequently asked
Yes. Engineering teams hire on demonstrated capability. A structured restart — fundamentals, a real delivery workflow and interview preparation — is what closes the gap created by a break, whether that break was for marriage, maternity, childcare, caregiving or relocation.
Timelines depend on your starting point and how many hours a week you can commit. Your route, entry point and realistic timeline are agreed in the consultation before you enrol.
No. There are restart routes for both prior-IT and non-IT backgrounds. Which programmes are open to you depends on your education and working history, which is reviewed at consultation.
ATLARDA offers guaranteed placement or a 100% eligible tuition refund, subject to eligibility, attendance, assessment, programme completion and placement-participation conditions. The full policy is published before enrolment.
Study patterns are discussed during the consultation so the schedule is realistic for you. We would rather set an honest plan than an optimistic one.
