The Best Cincinnati Coding Bootcamps Of 2023

When I decided to change careers and attend a coding bootcamp, I reviewed many options.  I ultimately chose Max Technical Training as it appeared to have a more personable approach.  After attending, wow that is not an understatement.  They are very personable and make you feel like part of their family from the first day to post graduation with alumni events to help with networking.  Even though I mostly attended remote, I never felt like an outsider.  The bootcamp was amazing with instructors that are extremely knowledgeable and passionate about you learning.  It was the best choice I have ever made!

My time at Tech Elevator was one of the most fulfilling experiences of my life. Not only does their staff want you to professionally succeed, they care about their students as well. It's hard to believe how much I was able to learn over the 14 weeks. The instructing staff is extremely knowledgable and will always go the extra mile to make sure you are learning and understanding the concepts. The pathway staff is always hard at work trying to weed out more opportunities for TE grads. The current job market is tough, but I was lucky enough to receive an offer through the program's matchmaking a month after graduation. The TE staff will keep working hard for their students to make sure they get a job -  but you do tend to get out what you put in.

I highly recommend this program to those who are willing to put the work in, are wanting to make a career change, and are wanting to connect with others through the process. I would not have had as good of a time in this program if I had not also invested myself in my fellow classmates. Tech Elevator Columbus is amazing. 

I came into Kable Academy, not knowing anything about computers, let alone cyber security. This course took me 3 months to complete. I had the fortune of having a great instructor, who has been on the field for so long. He taught me, more than just what any article in cybersecurity. He taught me how to optimize my computer to work at the most optimal level. He taught me  how to do more set up a "simple network", he also taught us ways to make it secure. The labs we have gave us all a hands on experience. When I completed it, the career services helped me find a job, and when I entered the job force, I stuck out from the rest of new hires I was with. The skills I learned where more than I needed to just get started in IT. Eventually, after working at my first job out of Kable Academy, I was offered a job as a TA at Kable Academy. After working for a few years as a TA, I was promoted as an instructor and also the head of IT Support at the school. Choosing to go into this field, and going to Kable Academy, was honestly the best decision I have ever made. 

This bootcamp taught me everything I needed to know on how to set up a development environment and workspace on almost any machine in the first few weeks of class! This proved valuable in many situations during and after bootcamp. We Can Code IT covered all of the basics of Java in about 6 months, this was necessary in job hunting which they also played a huge part in mentoring me and enabling me to secure employment within weeks of graduating!
