• We have lending options available as needed, upon request.
• Equipment, robots, and tools aren’t included. As an RCA student, you’ll have access to discounts through our partners.
• Payments have to be made BEFORE you start your RCA 90-Day Sprint.
• There is no “pay when you obtain a job” option at this moment. Payments have to be paid before onboarding begins.

While a degree is helpful, no, you do not need a degree to join RCA.

If you don’t have a degree, you will have to work hard to show that you’re capable of solving robotics problems. We will work with you to build out your portfolio and practice interviewing so that you have success unlocking job offers.

Our current students have a mix of no degrees, GED/HS diplomas, Certifications, Bachelors, and Master’s Degrees. It comes down to your willingness to learn to make that career move into robotics.

RCA Pathway #1: Business Automation

Level of Difficulty: 2/5 | Level of Innovation: 4/5

This pathway focuses on applied process automation.

There are thousands of repetitive, manual tasks in businesses today. The biggest problem is that when tasks are repetitive, they become error-prone.

That’s why it’s important to introduce software “bots”, automation, and no-code solutions to improve efficiencies within key business processes.

If you’re interested in robotics, have a software background, and/or are interested in the business strategy side of robotics, then the Business Automation pathway is for you.

RCA Pathway #2: Industrial Robotics

Level of Difficulty: 3/5 | Level of Innovation: 3/5

This pathway focuses on the application of robotics in manufacturing and factories: PLCs, HMIs, and Robot Arms.

Many manufacturing plants are preparing for Factory 4.0 — to do this, they need experts who can identify processes and create innovative manufacturing solutions leveraging automation and industrial robotics.

You will familiarize yourself with common automation brands including Allen-Bradley, Siemens, FANUC, ABB, and Universal Robots to create Factory Automation Processes.

Then, you will identify which roles make the most sense for your interests, backgrounds, and career goals.

If you’re interested in the side of robotics where you can be hands-on with robots, while solving some of the world’s largest supply chain and manufacturing challenges, then the Industrial Robotics Pathway is for you.

RCA Pathway #3: Research & Innovation

Level of Difficulty: 5/5 | Level of Innovation: 5/5

This pathway focuses on the innovations that the world of robotics is seeing today. Think self-driving cars, navigation, path-planning, and robotics software engineering.

You’ll be leveraging industry best practices, simulation tools, and inspiration from university labs, to conduct a Learn Robotics Micro-Thesis on a robotics topic of your choice. Your Micro-Thesis becomes a launching point for your advanced degree, future business idea, or industry career at fast-moving startups and enterprise companies. 

We’ll show you how to set up your robotics research lab at home (or wherever you like to work), and show you which courses, training, and tools will make the most impact on your studies.

If you’re interested in conducting applied robotics research where you mix robotics theory with practical applications across autonomous vehicles, software algorithms using Python/C++, and the Robot Operating System (ROS), then the Research & Innovation Pathway is for you.

We recommend applying to RCA and hopping on a call with us so we can learn more about what you’re trying to do. Typically we find that 99% of the time the goal you have in robotics falls into one of the 3 RCA Pathways — and if not, we’ll provide you with personalized recommendations.

RCA is led by Robotics Engineer, Liz Miller, and industry professionals who specialize in various robotics niches. You’ll be placed with a coach based on your career goals and the RCA Pathway you choose.

Yes, upon successful completion of your 90-Day Sprint, you’ll receive an RCA Certificate and badge you can display on LinkedIn. Additionally, if you complete any of our affiliate trainings, you’ll receive those certifications as well.
