Frequently Asked Questions
Interested in upgrading to get full access to our Big O Data Structures course, but unsure what that entails?
What’s the difference between Basic and Pro?
A Basic account is, well, basic. You can demo Pro features on the first 6 exercises of each course (such as our Big O Data Structures course). But after that, if you’re on a Basic plan, you’ll only be able to read the course material and play in the code sandbox. You won’t get access to feedback on your code know if you got the right answers.
Qvault Pro has everything in Basic, plus all the advanced tools, content, solutions, and certifications that you need to make your learning faster.
A Pro account lets you practice much more efficiently by getting instant verification of all your code solutions. If you get stuck, you can use the “cheat” feature to take a look at the solution and quickly see what’s holding you up.
Additionally, one of the biggest benefits our Pro subscribers get is access to free certificates of completion when they finish a course. Showing off your work to employers is a quick way to get that high-paying tech job

Do I need to know how to code in Python and Data Structures before signing up?
Our Big O Algorithms course was designed for users to complete lessons coding in Python, so some previous knowledge or experience working with Python is an advantage.
As for data structures, the course starts from the basics of what data structures are, and how they work with Big O. So, even beginners to data structures should be able to complete the course and move on to the more challenging aspects once they understand these basics.
Why should I upgrade to Qvault Pro?
I built Qvault based on the lessons I’ve been learning as a technical hiring manager, so everything we do here is designed to take you from your current level, and get you an eventual high-paying programming job. If you’re ready to accelerate your learning and apply your skills to real-world scenarios, then Qvault Pro is for you.
Aside from the direct benefits, if you like what we’re building here at Qvault, your support helps us improve the platform.
How easy is it to cancel my subscription if I don’t like it?
We do our best to be transparent about pricing, and never want anyone keeping a subscription they don’t use. You can cancel your subscription any time from your settings page and you won’t be billed again.
