Join?APPLE Developer Academy Indonesia!

About the autor

Without any background in IT, I took a leap of faith and enrolled in the Apple Developer Academy—a program I stumbled upon by accident while searching on Google—while I was looking for cybersecurity events or competitions. Even though my knowledge of cybersecurity was still very basic, I confidently wanted to enter the competition 😂—silly, right?

It turned out God didn’t allow it because I didn’t find what I was looking for.

A few minutes later, I was still happily browsing on Google.

And BOOMMMM…..!!!!!

I found a website that caught my attention.

It was the free registration—or fully funded—for the APPLE DEVELOPER ACADEMY INDONESIA COHORT 2027.

Apple is a tech giant based in the United States that offers such a high-quality educational program, accepting applicants aged 18–65 from all educational backgrounds, professions, and ethnicities. Of course, I was very interested.

I took the plunge and registered on June 17, 2026, and submitted my resume and portfolio on June 18, 2026.

I needed time to prepare my portfolio so it wouldn’t be rejected, and since I didn’t have that many interesting things to show, I had to work hard to choose which pieces would look the most compelling.

And unexpectedly, on June 19, 2026—exactly one day after submitting my portfolio—I received an email from the Apple Developer Academy stating that I had qualified for the ONLINE TEST, which consisted of 50 questions—30 logic questions and 20 programming questions—along with various strict requirements and rules for taking the online test.

From that moment on, I started scouring almost every search platform, like Google, and all social media to find information about alumni from previous cohorts.

I looked for the types of questions they encountered,

and everything about their experiences participating in the program.

I found out that the programming test included Swift and pseudocode.

At the time, I didn’t understand any of it at all and had only just learned that there was a programming language called Swift—which, as it turns out, is a programming language created by Apple in 2014.

Correct me if I’m wrong…

I started researching, learning, and practicing the problems generated by ChatGPT.

I really taught myself from scratch—I read articles, books, asked AI, watched YouTube videos, and so on.

And now I’m waiting for the test results, which are making me pretty nervous.

As of the time this article was written, I haven’t received an email with my online test results yet. Hopefully I’ll pass—if not, oh well, I’ll just keep studying and try again every year until I’m old, lol. I promise.
