No, you do not need a technical background to thrive in Merit America's programs. We welcome applicants from diverse backgrounds and skill sets. All you need is grit, determination, and the time in your schedule to dedicate to the program.

However, it is worth noting that for the Java program, familiarity with coding is recommended due to its pace and workload.
