The questions people actually ask
What makes Saarathi different from a typical training institute?
Three things. Batches are capped at 10, so your work is read line by line. Your mentors still do the job they teach. And the syllabus is so good, no hard part is skipped: it starts from the basics and is built from real job descriptions.
Who is Saarathi for?
Saarathi is for motivated learners, beginners or career-switchers, who want high-standards, honest mentorship, and are willing to put in the hours at home to build real software. If you just want a quick, easy certificate, we are not the place for you.
How does admission work?
Send an inquiry on the admission page, on WhatsApp, or visit us Monday to Friday. We help you pick a track, then you secure one of the 10 seats in your batch and meet your mentor on day one.
How many students are in a batch?
Capped strictly at 10. Never thirty, never fifty. This allows mentors to read your code, refactor it with you, and guide you 1-on-1 every day.
Do I need prior coding experience to join?
No. Every syllabus starts from the basics, with the first third on fundamentals, so complete beginners start at the right place.
What happens in Week 1?
Week 1 is entirely focused on mindset and study systems. We set expectation levels, teach troubleshooting methodologies, debugging instincts, and how to read documentation. We get your headspace right before writing code.
Are classes online or in-person?
We offer both formats. In-person batches run at our Old Baneshwor classroom in Kathmandu. Online batches run under the exact same 10-student cap. Our physical labs stay open every Sunday for open classroom practice and peer debugging.
What does career support include?
CV and LinkedIn reviews, mock interviews, and referrals to our hiring partners. We do not promise a job.
Do I get a certificate?
Yes, if you pass the hands-on Saarathi Certification Exam. Anyone can check it at saarathiacademy.com.np/verify. Employers still care most about the work you can show them.
What is the fee and is it refundable?
Fees are published upfront on each course page in NPR with no hidden charges. The booking fee is 30% of the course fee and is non-refundable. If you clear the full fee at admission and then decide not to continue, you can request a 50% refund in writing within the first 7 days of class.
Can I visit before I enroll?
Absolutely. We encourage you to drop by our Old Baneshwor office, see the classroom, look at current student projects, and talk to mentors. Decide after seeing the work, not a slide deck.
What if I fall behind?
In a batch of 10, it is impossible to fall behind quietly. We review your progress daily, run revision sprints every fifth class, and keep the labs open on Sundays. If you get stuck, your mentor reaches out to unblock you.
