Live - Full Stack Software Engineering Bootcamp Reviews

In the TrueCoders Full Stack Software Engineering day course I was able to expand upon my knowledge of object oriented programming and complete a functioning application with the help of the primary teacher, John Ward, and TAs Amorris Mallet, Jose Villalobos and Morgan Fulbright. With this knowledge and the career services of Denise Shines I was able to successfully interview for a position before the end of the course. 

I researched bootcamps for what seemed like forever when I decided to leave restaurant management after 18+ years, for a chance at having a better work-life balance. Just when I thought it just wasn't possible to find something that took less than 6 months to a year, online, affordable, flexible AND full-stack...I found TrueCoders. They provide an affordable online full-stack curriculum for both web developers and software developers, with the option of a 9-week full-time course or a flex option where you can go at your own pace. The best part about either of those options is that you are provided the same resources regardless. You have access to all the instructors, teaching assistants, students in your cohort, past alumni, career services, 1-on-1 appointments through their respective discord channels as well as all the course work, documentation, and past recorded training videos, exercise videos, class sessions and career services talks via their online student portal. And a huge bonus is that you will have access to these resources F-O-R-E-V-E-R!  There was never a time where help wasn't available to me when I needed it. Honestly, I can't recommend TrueCoders enough and I'm certain there's many more positives and benefits than what I've already stated. Check out another review below by one of my classmates, Nancy Lee, for more insight and validity to my support for this course. The most useful thing I can say is whether you're fresh or seasoned, you'll come out better in the end with TrueCoders. 

Before committing to TrueCoders as a bootcamp, I took awhile scouting other bootcamps and speaking with their counselors. I ended up choosing TrueCoders and I am definitely glad I did! They offer an affordable 9-week course for both Full Time Software Engineering or Software Development - as well as flex courses for those who work or have a busy life schedule. I decided to quit my job and go for the 9-week Full Time Software Engineering course. The biggest decision for me was that I did not want to be 'away from the job market' for 6+ months like the other bootcamp courses. I can say that in the end, 9 weeks was enough for me to gain the knowledge I needed to be confident that I am a sprouting Software Engineer! Their courses were very thorough and each module helped me understand how to apply coding along with various options on how to solve exercises. I highly recommend TrueCoders for a number of reasons to anyone whether you are changing your career paths or starting one! I initially thought I'd be intimidated taking courses with possible other students/teachers who already had coding knowledge and that I'd be far behind. However, they go through the basics and provided pre-course work to get yourself familiar with the concepts. Our instructor, John, was a C# guru and really knew his stuff, he was also patient, fun, and cool - he always made time for us during class and afterwards to address any of our questions. We also had 3 Teacher's Assistants for a class size of roughly 25. That means PLENTY of one-on-one time during lectures, and afterwards too. I did not feel like I ever fell behind from all the help they provided. Students can also schedule 1-on-1's with other teachers too! There is always someone who can help. Every teacher is willing to take his time to answer your questions and provides special care and attention to EACH student! What company does that! Every week we also had our Career Services coach, Denise, meet with us to provide much needed guidance on helping us set ourselves up to find that dream job and pass that interview. We need a daily dose of Denise - she's one of the most enthusiastic and charismatic person you'd ever meet! Always leaves your cheeks cramped from smiling/laughing. The course curriculum is organized very well and each lesson has great and challenging exercises. The coursework is just right, not too overwhelming nor too light. I didn't feel like I was burning myself out while cramming in a ton of info in a short amount of time. What makes TrueCoders stand out from the rest is their attention to providing one-on-one help to their students. It's not just a lecture and goodbye. Give it a try and be off to the next chapter of your career - you won't be disappointed! 

Had a great time during my time at Trucoders the teachers were very helpful and knowledgeable. We had a small to medium class size with multiple student teachers so there was always somebody available to help us. Unlimited 1 on 1 time after class is also a nice benefit to have when working through new material. Meetings with career services weekly and she is always available to help or answer any questions you might have. 

Couldn't have asked for a better introduction to coding. The instructors are incredibly helpful and patient, the curriculum is well-developed, and the career services alone are worth enrolling in the course. Denise will get you where you want to go! The price you pay upfront is the only cost associated with the course. As long as you've got a computer, all the programs and websites they use are free. Best money I've ever spent.

I came into this course with no experience. Through the nine week course I am now comfortable working in C#, SQL, .NET Core, Git, ASP.NET, MVC, HTML, and CSS. The instructors will help individuals as often as needed, so any questions one may have will always be answered.On top of all of that, Denise with Career Services will give you all the information needed to network, find opportunities, and successfully interview for the job. If you have even the slightest inclination to learn computer programming, I would highly recommend TrueCoders. 

A fantastic company with lots of support and a great curriculum. You will learn so much in only 9 weeks! The teachers are always willing to do whatever it takes to make sure that you are successful. There are lots of opportunities for questions during and after class, one on one appointments, and labs. There is even someone available to answer questions on the weekend! The career services is excellent and provides lots of assistance on preparing your resume, LinkedIn and with mock interviews. This is a great place to start your software engineer career!

I enrolled into this program because I wanted to make a career change. I 've had a great learning experience, developed new skills that would open doors to new position in software development. The instructors are very knowledgeable and very helpful. You can come to them for help before and after class, because they care about the student progress. As at this time of review, I have not gotten into seeking assistance in job placement, but it is a great place to make you succeed in your career and job search.I would definitely recommend this program to anyone looking to get into web development and programming skills.

 I cannot express how happy I am to have gone through True Coders. I originally had worked with C# on and off for more than a year so I had a little bit of knowledge when I joined. However, it was very clear that the course was designed for even those who have never wrote a line of code before. Despite this, I still found myself learning valuable information in the first week.The atmosphere is great. Everyone is friendly and helpful, and the focus remains on getting you a job throughout the entirety of the course. You will have assistance along the way from your fellow peers and from the True Coders staff. If you are looking to get started in the industry I would 100% recommend this course. In fact, I actively recommend the course to friends/family who are looking for a new career. 

Super happy I made the right choice in attending TrueCoders after feeling like I was going nowhere with my last job. TrueCoders has a well-designed curriculum with good instructors, amazing one on one assistance and I can't forget about Denise with Job Placement. In my class, Whit did a great job of not only teaching but also guiding the students who came from a broad level of prior competence. Not only did I learn a lot during the classes about C#, SQL, and full-stack development, but I now have much in the way of resources and projects to use as reference going forward. The class was offered online and that all went well - better than I could have imagined. Thank you Whit and TrueCoders.

I really enjoyed my time with TrueCoders. The curriculum is full of relevant material, but was well paced. The instructors during the one-on-one sessions were patient and knowledgeable on a multitude of topics in the field. The tools and tips given during the career development portion of the course are very insightful and helpful, properly preparing me to step into the information technology field confidently. I also love the sense of community even after graduation, knowing that there is a group that I can bounce ideas off of and receive assistance, if needed, is definitely reassuring. 

TrueCoders presents a 9-week course that is pretty intensive. You definitely have to put in the work both inside and outside of class. During the 9-weeks, most time is spent on C#, but then there are some great overviews of SQL statements, HTML, CSS, ASP.NET, APIs, JSON and IDE. I went from absolutely no coding experience to and entry-level programmer. I have confidence that I can now join a company, learn their methods, and quickly advance my journey in programming. 

Great Bootcamp for beginners and intermediate developers. You will work on projects independently and with classmates. Main focus is on C# and then SQL. Less focus on HTML,CSS, and Javascript. C# can be overwhelming for beginners so I'd recommend doing some studying before on W3schools or a similar site before class starts. I had a great instructor (Michael Doyle) and you have unlimited help with 1on1 zoom calls if you are struggling or need help with anything. The job placement side is pretty good especially if you have no prior experience or knowledge in interviewing, applying, etc. Resources for interview practice is also nice. You will have the tools to practice what questions to answers on an interview. I'd also recommend taking a couple web dev, C#, ethical hacking/ cyber security, and SQL course along with this bootcamp (After this class would be ideal). Just because you will be spending most of your day working on True Coders material. This goes for the Software Engineering curriculum. While attending they added the Web Dev course. Great support and alumni! 

If you're someone that's having a difficult time deciding choose this boot camp! 
The instructors are great, they take their time explaining the curriculum. 
They have tutors available. 
Truecoders prepares you starting day one with their job placement talks and techniques to amp up your resume.

Overall my experience was a great one and I feel confident to enter the industry after my training.
