AI Software bootcamp | On campus, full-time Reviews

After two years working as a wine merchant specialized in craft beer and a sanitary crisis during which I couldn’t practice my job, I decided to change career.I had not turned on my computer for a year, yet I wanted to learn to how to code. I had heard about Le Wagon several times and the bootcamp format; short but intense, particularly appealed to me, so when I learned that in addition to a fullstack training, we would have yoga classes, my choice was made.More seriously, I can only recommend the web dev bootcamp, and even Le Wagon in general, the pedagogy, the patience, the collaboration and the kindness are part of their philosophy. The program and the tools at our disposal are incredibly qualitative.Also, the recruitment work for the bootcamp gives rise, to my great surprise, to extremely heterogeneous and equal batches; the diversity of the profiles brings a richness and a true complementarity, driving the projects and the work in pairs. All in all, I think we would have done well to spend another month just for the atmosphere and the teaching team.

Hello, I’m Jose Prieto! I’m from Paraguay and some of my hobbies are video games, travel, CrossFit and now coding. Before the bootcamp I worked as a Bank Account Manager for almost 6 years. My main focus was meeting the needs of increasingly demanding clients and meeting monthly revenue targets, which helped me to work under a lot of pressure. As a video game lover, I have always been very curious about technology and programming and knew that sooner or later I was going to make the big leap. When I found out about Le Wagon I knew I had to do it. The experience was incredible and I not only learned a lot but also had a lot of fun during the process of learning how to code. After the 9 week program I’m overwhelmed by how much I have learned and I am eager to build on my newly acquired knowledge and keep learning. 

OK Internet was already part of my life. But not of my work. I used to work for a luxury company, selecting what would be in stores.Our clients used WeChat, Instagram or e-shops all the time but my job was centered around brick-and-mortar experience. I could not see myself cornered with retail forever so I decided to join Le Wagon to learn some code."You have to trust us, everybody will succeed eventually" was the first sentence I heard from the teachers. While everybody's pace was different, no one was left behind and after 9 weeks we all could code. It's amazing to see that I can now create a web app from a glorified TextEdit file.Le Wagon taught me web development but spiked my curiosity. I can explore concepts like Machine Learning or Big Data and I feel confident enough to do sales for an Artificial Intelligence start-up.

I decided to do Le Wagon because I needed a change in my professional life, it is not easy to know what to do, in which sector and to find the right way to do it.
With the Wagon I discovered the IT, it was a very intense 9 weeks but the teachers and staff are really nice and the atmosphere is very special.
I met great people who I worked with every day and I really enjoyed spending time with them.
It gave me a new vision of professional life, more colorful, more flexible.

 As the founder of Facildata, the digital brick for your building.I have chosen Le Wagon web development program for the two following main reasons:1- To have a concrete experience of coding and web development.2- To be part of the great community of le Wagon which has an excellent spirit and provides so many valuable advices and services for the founders and the developers.  This was a great experience, thanks to kitt and the paris wagon team which follow and guide you along the bootcamp. 

After studying material engineer and then working in the Operations, I wanted to learn something new. I always was interested in coding but thought it wasn’t made for me because I sucked at it in class.I chose Le Wagon because the bootcamp wasn’t long and I could learn everything I needed to know to become a Web Developper in only 9 weeks.Now that the bootcamp has finished, I wish it could have lasted a little bit more. All the staff is super nice and ready to help you when you’re lost.  What I really enjoyed is that the teachers and TA have already done the same bootcamp, few months or years before, so they know what you’re going through, what they are talking about and where you will have a problem.

I just ended my Bootcamp with Le Wagon Paris. During the first 7 weeks, we learned a lot about Ruby on Rails and i'm now independent to create my own websites, wich is amazing !During the last 2 weeks, i was working with three other people on a group project. It was a great way to apply everything we learned on a web app we chose to build. As a group, we had to adapt to everyone's skills so we could be ready for the demo day, where I had the opportunity to present our project in front of 100 people. Le Wagon gave me the confidence i needed to keep learning new things and to start my own company ! I highly recommend :). 

 After several years working in tax law and the banking industry, I decided to move my career in another direction. I’ve always fancied the tech world, that’s why I looked for formations in web development. After some times studying the different possibilities, I chose the Fullstack Web Dev Bootcamp of Le Wagon. Why? Because of its great network of alumni, of its duration (9 intense weeks) and of its renown overall quality. I’ve made amazing friends along the way and I’ve confirmed my liking for programming. Yay!

I had been wanting to change careers and become a web developer for a while, and I finally ended up choosing Le Wagon to kickstart this journey. I am really glad I did! Sure, I could have learned by myself - there are really great resources online, that is true! But Le Wagon uses a very specific learning process that really ensures we absorb and apply the knowledge in an optimal way via their own platform, challenges and projects. And that’s not counting all the skills we acquire that are necessary in a developer position, outside of just programming language skills, such as learning how to learn (so important!), working together as a team, version control with Git, product design with Figma, Agile methodologies, writing user stories, prioritizing features for an MVP, etc. On top of that, Le Wagon Montréal counts on an amazing team and I am glad to now be part of that international community! I am super excited to start my new job as a full stack developer. 

After 7 years of experience in web project management, I wanted to enrich my functional profile through the acquisition of real technical skills. That's why I joined Le Wagon to train as a FullStack Web Developer.My first idea was therefore to enrich my technical skills and thus have an expertise in web project management, both on a functional and technical level. But after 9 weeks of bootcamp and two projects developed in a team, I discovered a new passion. The full-time training is very intensive. But it is also very rich in terms of learning and on a human level. You get into the rhythm very quickly and eventually the time passes so quickly that you feel nostalgic before the end of the course.I spent 9 amazing weeks, the training in general is very well organised and the staff is very competent and educational. I recommend this experience to anyone who wants to learn.

 Before Le Wagon I was working in the fashion industry and had never coded.
When I saw the different backgrounds of the students, I knew I was in the right place.
We are supervised from day one by teacher assistants who were (for the most part) former students and who know exactly what we are going through.
The first few days were the hardest, but once you start to see the results of your efforts, you keep going.
What makes The Wagon unique is also our access to the network of brilliant alumni, who work in cool places, and I landed my first job (only a few days after the bootcamp) thanks to the events organized to meet recruiters and alumni. 

By registering at Le Wagon Paris, I knew that I was going to follow a quality training, but I didn't expect it to be so well established. We trust the program and let ourselves be carried away !The teachers are very qualified, super caring and available. I felt accompanied and supported throughout the training.I learned so much in such a short time, and the progression is crazy : at the end of the 9 weeks, we acquire reflexes and we master the basics. I feel totally ready to land a job as a junior developer.The project weeks bring another dimension to the bootcamp. We work as a team and we give our all to deliver the best possible app !It was an amazing experience ! I am proud to be an alumni now :) 

Le Wagon Paris Bootcamp was an incredible experience. I left my previous company to learn how to code and have more technical skills. At the end of the day, thanks to the high quality of the program and teachers, this bootcamp gave me the opportunity to create and learn the code easier than I expected. More than a program that enables you to learn how to code, I recommend it should you seek a way to learn how to be a developer. 

After 3 years as a pedagogical engineer and chief product officer in a Parisian start-up, I decided to attend Le Wagon Web Development full-time Bootcamp in April 2021, in order to change my profession to Web Developer. During my ten weeks at Le Wagon, in addition to mastering back-end programming languages like Ruby, I also acquired some front-end skills like flexbox, CSS grid, and ES6. Two weeks after graduating from Le Wagon, I found my first job as a Back-End Developer. I am very grateful to Le Wagon for changing my life in only two months.

I just graduated from Le Wagon web development bootcamp and I feel very excited for the future.I learnt so much in such a short time about backend and frontend languages of course but also on how to work more efficiently as a team on a project for example.After working for 10 years in the tech industry on the business side, I feel the bootcamp gave me the skills to upgrade my career.I am thankful for the journey and happy to join the Le Wagon community.

I attended Le Wagon #550 in Paris (March 2021). It was a great experience. The boot camp is very intense and teaches you all you need to launch a tech product or start a career as a developer. I would recommend it any day. Not only does it teach you the necessary programming skills, front and back end, but it also opens the door to all the Le Wagon online resources and community. Definitely worth your time and investment if you consider learning web development.

My overall experience was very positive. I won’t lie, it was very challenging and confronting you grasp vast amounts of information, but I’m honestly glad I went through that, it was the best way to learn at a fast-paced (the tech industry is naturally fast-paced anyway).I don’t have a negative comment, but more so a suggestion to help students cope with stress during a massive project. I personally coped well under stress, but others not so much. All in all, I loved every moment & would definitely recommend it to anyone looking to change into tech & make awesome new friends.
