Course Overview
This is the complete MERN stack curriculum, written for someone starting straight after 12th with no coding background. Six months, one theme per month, and something you have built at the end of each. You begin with how the internet actually works — client–server architecture, HTTP and HTTPS, browsers, domains and hosting — then HTML5, CSS3 and Git, and finish month one with a personal portfolio website and a responsive landing page of your own.
Month two is JavaScript from beginner to advanced: variables and data types, control flow and functions, arrays and objects, higher-order functions, closures, ES6+ and modules, DOM manipulation and form validation, asynchronous JavaScript with promises, async/await, the Fetch API and REST integration, and browser storage — built into a calculator, a weather app and a to-do app. Month three is React.js: components, JSX and Vite, hooks, React Router with nested and protected routes, API integration with Axios, state management with the Context API, styling with Tailwind CSS, and front-end JWT authentication, producing a blog site, an employee dashboard and an e-commerce front end.
Month four is the back end — Node.js modules and npm, Express servers, routing, middleware and MVC architecture, REST APIs, bcrypt and JWT authentication with protected routes, MongoDB with query operators and aggregation basics, Mongoose schemas, models, validation and population, and file handling with Multer, Cloudinary and Nodemailer. The mini projects are an authentication system, a student management system and a library management system, which is where the front end and back end finally meet.
Month five is one industry project taken from planning to review: project selection, requirement analysis, user stories, wireframing, folder structure, database design and API planning, then the dashboard, forms, routing and responsive UI, then the REST APIs, authentication, CRUD and file uploads behind them, then debugging, API testing, error handling, performance optimisation and security practice — with code reviews, bug fixes, documentation and a Git and GitHub workflow running throughout. Month six deploys it and gets you hired: the front end on Vercel and the back end on Render with MongoDB Atlas, environment variables, domains and hosting, then an ATS-friendly resume, a GitHub and LinkedIn profile, a portfolio website, technical interview preparation across the whole stack, aptitude, logical reasoning, HR preparation, live coding and structured mock interviews.
What You'll Learn
Every module ends in something you have built and a trainer has reviewed, so the list below is work you will have done rather than topics you will have heard about.
- 01
Your own portfolio website, live in month one
Built in HTML and CSS, versioned in Git and pushed to GitHub — the first thing you own on the internet, and the site your later projects get listed on.
- 02
A React front end that talks to a real API
Components, hooks, routing and Context API with Axios calls, Tailwind styling and JWT-protected routes — a blog, a dashboard and an e-commerce front end by the end of month three.
- 03
A secured Node and Express back end
REST APIs with MVC structure, bcrypt and JWT authentication, Mongoose schemas with validation and population, and file uploads through Multer and Cloudinary.
- 04
One industry-level project, deployed
A month of planning, building, testing and reviewing, then deployed with the front end on Vercel and the back end on Render with MongoDB Atlas — documented, presented and on your GitHub.
Course Curriculum
The syllabus is a six-month roadmap, one theme per month, and every month ends in named mini projects rather than a set of notes. Months 1 and 2 build web fundamentals and JavaScript, month 3 is React.js, month 4 is the Node.js, Express and MongoDB back end, month 5 is one industry project from planning through review, and month 6 is deployment and placement preparation.
Month 1 — Web Development Fundamentals
- 1
Web Fundamentals — introduction to web development, how the internet works, client–server architecture, frontend vs backend vs full stack, HTTP & HTTPS, browsers, domains & hosting
- 2
HTML5 — structure, semantic tags, forms, tables, lists, media, accessibility
- 3
CSS3 — selectors, box model, Flexbox, Grid, animations, responsive design, media queries
- 4
Git & GitHub — Git basics, repository, commit, branching, merge, pull requests, GitHub workflow
- 5
Mini projects: personal portfolio website, responsive landing page
Tools you will actually work in
Everything here is installed on the lab machines and used on live client work, not shown once in a slide and forgotten.

Who can do this course
Students straight out of 12th
Any stream. Month one starts at how a web page is served and ends with your own portfolio website live on the internet, which is usually the point where it stops feeling abstract.
Students doing a degree alongside
Most students run this next to a BCA, B.Sc IT or B.Com at a Jalandhar college. Six months of evenings or weekends puts a deployed full-stack project on your CV a full year before campus placements begin.
Anyone choosing between a degree and a skill
You do not have to choose. This is a certificate programme with a fixed six-month end date, and the work it produces — a GitHub repository, a live URL, an industry project — is what a first employer actually inspects.
Career restarters and switchers
A gap or an unrelated background counts for less than work someone can open in a browser. The syllabus is identical whoever you are; only the batch timing changes.
Freelancers and family-business owners
The MERN stack is what most small business sites, dashboards and booking systems are built on. By month four you can build one properly rather than paying someone else to.
Self-taught learners
If free videos left you with notes and half-finished folders, what changes here is a trainer reviewing the code you wrote this week and five mini projects with deadlines attached.
Why this programme is worth your year
The complete MERN curriculum
HTML, CSS, JavaScript, React, Node.js, Express and MongoDB taught as one connected stack rather than seven separate subjects.
5+ mini projects
A portfolio site, a calculator, a weather app, a to-do app, a blog, an employee dashboard, an e-commerce front end, an authentication system, a student management system and a library system — practice you can point at.
1 industry-level major project
A full month on one complete, portfolio-ready application: planned, built, tested, optimised, reviewed and documented.
REST APIs and authentication
Design and consume RESTful services, then secure them with bcrypt, JWT, authorisation and protected routes — the two things every backend interview asks about.
Git, GitHub and cloud deployment
Version control the way real teams use it, and a live deployment on Vercel, Render and MongoDB Atlas with environment variables and a domain.
Resume, portfolio and mock interviews
An ATS-friendly resume, an optimised GitHub and LinkedIn profile, a portfolio website, technical question banks, live coding and structured mock interview sessions.
One Stack, Six Months, a Portfolio You Can Open in an Interview
- 5+ mini projects and one industry-level major project — deployed to a live URL, not left on a laptop.
- MERN roles in Punjab start around ₹18,000 – ₹32,000 a month for a fresher who can show working code.

Where this course takes you
The roles this opens, what they pay in Punjab and beyond, and who is hiring for them — the same figures our free Salary Estimator publishes, not a brochure number.
Design and develop complete full-stack web applications on the MERN stack; build responsive, modern, interactive interfaces with React.js and Tailwind CSS; develop secure and scalable RESTful APIs with Node.js and Express.js; work with MongoDB and Mongoose for database design and management; implement authentication, authorisation, CRUD operations and file uploads; integrate frontend and backend into complete production-ready solutions; and follow industry-standard practice using Git, GitHub and MVC architecture.
MERN Stack Developer, Full Stack Web Developer, Frontend Developer (React.js), Backend Developer (Node.js & Express.js), React.js Developer, Web Application Developer and Software Developer. In Jalandhar these come from IT companies and agencies, but also from export houses, immigration consultancies, hospitals, schools and real estate firms building their own systems.
A fresher with a deployed portfolio typically starts around ₹18,000 – ₹32,000 a month in the Jalandhar market. Two years of delivery experience usually doubles that, and developers who keep learning move well beyond it. What decides the starting number is what you can show, not how old you are.
For a first developer job, employers test what you can build. Six months is enough to cover the full stack properly and finish with an industry project, which is why the programme spends month five on one application and month six on deploying it and preparing you to defend it. Many students run this alongside a degree rather than instead of one.
Yes. Small business sites, dashboards, booking systems and admin panels are largely MERN work, and by month four you can build one end to end with authentication and file uploads. A Jalandhar address costs you nothing on a remote brief.
Yes. Students who want more depth move on to the 9-month programme or to an adjacent techcadd track — Full Stack Development, Data Science or Artificial Intelligence. The JavaScript, Git, API and deployment work carries straight over, so the second course is faster than the first.
Hands-on projects you will ship
Personal Portfolio Website
Month one's build: a responsive portfolio site and landing page in semantic HTML5 and CSS3, versioned with Git and published from GitHub.
Calculator, Weather & To-Do Apps
Three JavaScript builds covering DOM manipulation, events and form validation, then the Fetch API, promises and async/await against a real weather service, with state kept in browser storage.
Blog, Dashboard & E-commerce Frontend
Three React applications: components and hooks, React Router with protected routes, Axios CRUD against an API, Context API state and a Tailwind responsive UI with login and signup.
Authentication & Management Systems
An authentication system with bcrypt and JWT, plus student and library management systems on Express and MongoDB with Mongoose schemas, validation, population and file uploads.
Industry-Level Major Project
A complete full-stack MERN application taken from requirement analysis, user stories and wireframes through the dashboard, the REST APIs, testing, performance optimisation and security practice, with weekly code review.
Deployed & Presented Product
The same project shipped: frontend on Vercel, backend on Render, MongoDB Atlas, environment variables and a domain — documented, pushed to GitHub and presented live. This is the one interviewers ask about.
Learn it. Build it. Make it yours.
Every project moves through the same loop: understand the brief, build with guidance, then explain the decisions behind your work.

Blog, Dashboard & E-commerce FrontendWhy students choose techcadd
There are many places to learn MERN in Jalandhar and the brochure syllabus looks similar at all of them. What differs is who teaches, whether you ever deploy anything, and whether anyone picks up the phone after you have paid. techcadd has trained students across Punjab since 2007 on the same model: small batches, working practitioners as trainers, live projects as coursework.
Trainers who still ship code
Your trainer is not a full-time lecturer. They deliver client projects for techcadd's services arm, so the examples in class are current rather than a case study from five years ago.
Written for a school leaver
Month one begins at how the internet works. Nothing is assumed, and nothing is skipped on the assumption that you will pick it up later.
Every month ends in something built
Ten named mini projects across the first four months, then a full month on one industry project. You are never more than four weeks from a finished piece of work.
A live URL, not a localhost demo
Month six deploys the front end to Vercel and the back end to Render with MongoDB Atlas, on a real domain — because a project an interviewer cannot open has not been finished.
Certificate, internship letter and portfolio
You leave with a course completion certificate, a documented internship on live work, a GitHub repository and a portfolio website — four different pieces of evidence, not one.
A placement cell that persists
ATS resume reviews, LinkedIn and GitHub profile guidance, technical and HR mock interviews, live coding practice, and repeated drives with hiring partners across Jalandhar and Ludhiana.
What our students say
Real experiences from learners across Jalandhar and the districts around it.
“I joined a month after my boards with no coding background at all. Having my own portfolio site live by the end of month one is what made me believe I could do the rest.”
MSManpreet SinghAfter 12th Student · Jalandhar “I ran this alongside my BCA. By the time my college started placement talk I already had a deployed project and a GitHub profile nobody else in my class had.”
ISIshita SharmaBCA Student · Phagwara “Month three was the turning point. Once React clicked and my dashboard was pulling real data from an API, the interviews stopped being about my qualifications.”

Six months, running as a fixed roadmap: web development fundamentals, JavaScript, React.js, backend development with Node.js, Express and MongoDB, an industry project, then deployment and placement preparation. Weekday, evening and weekend batches cover the same syllabus, and 1-on-1 training is available. Every class runs for 2 hours.
Yes — that is who it is written for. Month one begins with how the internet works, client–server architecture and HTTP, then HTML5 and CSS3. No prior programming, no science stream and no particular percentage is required.
No. Nothing in the six months requires school-level physics or mathematics beyond ordinary arithmetic. Students from all three streams sit in the same batch, and the ones who finish are the ones who complete the mini projects.
Ten named mini projects across the first four months — a portfolio website, a responsive landing page, a calculator, a weather app, a to-do app, a blog website, an employee dashboard, an e-commerce frontend, an authentication system, and student and library management systems — plus one industry-level major project built through month five and deployed in month six.
In Jalandhar, six-month programmes with live projects, an internship and placement support typically run in the ₹18,000 to ₹40,000 range. techcadd counsellors share the current fee sheet and EMI options on request, and a demo class is free.
HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript (ES6+), React.js, Node.js, Express.js, MongoDB, Mongoose, REST APIs and JSON; Tailwind CSS, Bootstrap, Font Awesome, Google Fonts and Figma basics for UI; VS Code, Postman, MongoDB Compass, MongoDB Atlas, Git, GitHub, npm and Chrome DevTools for development; and Vercel, Render and Netlify for deployment.
Yes. Month six deploys the frontend to Vercel and the backend to Render against MongoDB Atlas, with environment variables and domain and hosting basics covered, followed by a live project presentation. A localhost demo is not a finished project.
It is a full month of the programme. You build an ATS-friendly resume, a GitHub profile, a LinkedIn profile and a portfolio website, then work through technical interview questions across HTML, CSS, JavaScript, React, Node, Express, MongoDB, REST APIs and authentication, plus aptitude, logical reasoning, HR preparation, live coding and structured mock interviews.
No institute can honestly guarantee a job, and you should be cautious of any in Jalandhar that does. techcadd guarantees placement support: resume and portfolio work, mock interviews, live coding practice and repeated drives with hiring partners across Jalandhar and Ludhiana, continued after a rejection rather than abandoned.
Yes — a course completion certificate, plus a documented internship letter based on live project work. Alongside them you leave with a GitHub repository, a portfolio website and a deployed application, which is what an interviewer actually opens.
The three-month programme covers the fundamentals and the front end; this six-month certificate programme adds the complete Node, Express and MongoDB back end, a full month on an industry project, cloud deployment and a month of placement preparation. The nine-month diploma goes further again. A counsellor can walk you through which fits your timeline.
Yes. techcadd Jalandhar runs weekday, evening and weekend batches in parallel so college students and working people can both attend, and 1-on-1 training is available for a fully personal schedule. Every class runs for 2 hours; book a free demo class to see the lab and meet the trainer before enrolling.
