I have completed the Full Stack Developer bootcamp in Full Time remotely. Although doing it from home, the feeling for the rest of the classmates and teachers was as if I were there. The learning curve is steep and requires a lot of perseverance and commitment, but the mentoring system is awesome and makes the whole journey much easier. The academy is very involved in helping you while you are studying as well as when looking for work. -

Si quieres ser desarrollador Fullstack, este es el bootcamp que estás buscando.

Desde el primer momento ya te sientes arropado y rodeado por una comunidad de desarrolladores que te ayudarán cada vez que lo necesites. La estructura del temario está perfectamente organizada para poder seguirla con facilidad aprendiendo tanto con teoría como con prácticas con muchos proyectos sobre lo que estás estudiando en ese momento. Realmente saben como mantenerte motivado, aprendiendo cada día más. Pero eso no es todo, cada vez que te sientas más atascado puedes pedir mentorías con algún tutor que te dará los conceptos clave para que aclares todas tus dudas. Y por si esto fuera poco, una vez terminado el curso puedes seguir teniendo mentorías y practicando futuras entrevistas de trabajo. Si estás pensando en ser desarrollador fullstack, ¡hacerlo en 4GeeksAcademy será todo un acierto! -

Full Stack part time

Tras acabar de finalizar el Bootcamp de 4 Geeks Academy en la modalidad de part-time, puedo catalogar la experiencia como muy satisfactoria.
Debido a que cuando inicié esta formación estaba trabajando, opté por esta modalidad y la verdad es que pocas desventajas o ninguna he encontrado con la formación presencial. Los medios didácticos empleados y la estructura del temario están muy estudiados y facilitan mucho la teleformación. Con el apoyo y seguimiento de los teachers, así como el servicio ilimitado de mentorías, además del esfuerzo personal, que no es poco, puedo asegurar que realmente aprendes a desarrollar. Todo el bootcamp tiene un enfoque práctico y aprendes programando con los lenguajes y tecnologías más demandados en el momento (Javascript, Python, React...).
Yo vengo del mundo del marketing y como he dicho, inicié el bootcamp trabajando, pero a un mes de finalizarlo, los conocimientos adquiridos y la seguridad que esto te da me permitieron cambiar de trabajo enfocándome más al desarrollo web que complementa muy bien mi experiencia y formación en marketing.
Así que si quieres reconvertirte como yo, o bien quieres adquirir unos conocimientos que te abran nuevas posibilidades laborales, puedo asegurar que el Bootcamp de 4 Geeks es una gran elección.
Además, aunque yo no lo he necesitado, decir que el resto de mis compañeros ya están en empresas gracias a 4 Geeks, lo que me hace reafirmarme en este último comentario. -

Una gran experiencia de crecimiento profesional

Escogí esta academia porque además de ofrecer clases presenciales en Madrid, como parte del bootcamp ofrece mentorías ilimitadas, aunque termines el Bootcamp, puedes seguir optando a ellas y es que si tienes cualquier duda, la podrás resolver con un mentor cualificado. Incluso y esto me parece increíble, te ayudan con tecnologías que no están dentro de la ruta de aprendizaje que proponen. Durante la realización del bootcamp de full-stack ya estaba recibiendo algunas ofertas de trabajo y eso me ha motivado muchísimo. Lo que más me ha gustado es la cercanía de todo el staff, la disposición para atendernos a cualquier hora y el contenido, he aprendido tecnologías como JavaScript y React en el front y Python, Flask y PostgreSQL en el Backend que están altamente demandadas en el mercado. Además con los conocimientos de SEO(Soy freelance SEO) que ya poseía me siento totalmente formado para cualquier reto que me propongan. -

A great experience.
My experience is that if you really want to become a programmer with this bootcamp you can do it. Every day you learn something new.
They also help you to improve your CV and help you at all times so you can find a job.
100% recommendable. -

Formación de calidad

Gente profesional y muy dedica a la formación. Te ayuda en todo momento desde el principio y te preparan para el mundo del desarrollo con ejercicios complejos y te guían hasta que encuentre el error. Es un método de formación novedoso, muy práctico en grupos reducidos pero dentro de una gran comunidad dispuesto a echarte un cable en todo momento. Hice el modo partime y no fue fácil pero lo volvería a repetir sin duda, y si es con ellos mejor. -

Excelente bootcamp

El contenido está muy bien estructurado, va de lo básico a convertirte en desarrollador full-stack, hay que dedicarle tiempo y programar todos los días, ser constante en investigar, nunca estás solo, puedes tomar las mentorías que desees, y aprendes mucho ya que puedes ver la forma de pensar que tiene cada mentor y como enfrentar un problema. Las clases son dinámicas y los profesores siempre buscan la forma de que entiendas todo.
De 4Geeks no solo me llevo el conocimiento y las herramientas sino buenos compañeros y amigos.
Y algo muy importante, el bootcamp no termina con la entrega de tu proyecto, recibes orientación para desarrollar tu CV y te preparan para ese proceso de la búsqueda de empleo.

gracias a 4Geeks logré comenzar mi reinvención profesional. No fue fácil pasar de odontología al mundo del desarrollo, pero gracias a 4Geeks ha sido maravilloso. 4Geeks tiene profesores increíbles con sesiones personalizadas con expertos a parte y de por vida, le llaman "mentorías", desde que usé ese recurso fue un antes y después. Tienen mucha paciencia y la curva de aprendizaje es posible para cualquier persona sin importar si tiene o no experiencia previa en programación. Después de graduarte tienen un programa "GeekCarreer" que nos prepara para el mundo de entrevistas y nos hacen seguimiento hasta alcanzar por nosotros mismos el éxito profesional. Estaré eternamente agradecida con 4Geeks por su apoyo. -

Realicé el bootcamp de full stack developer entre 2020 y 2021 y tengo que decir que ha sido inmejorable. Estuve a punto de entrar en otras escuelas, pero lo que me hizo decidirme por 4Geeks Academy fue la atención cercana y personal. Tienes, para siempre, tutorías INDIVIDUALES con los profesores....no hay nada más que decir, eso vale oro. Gracias a mis profesores, que han estado volcados conmigo y mis compañeros, he sacado el bootcamp y hoy me pongo a trabajar de ello. Nunca podré agradecerles suficiente el tiempo y la paciencia que me han dedicado. Me llevo muy buenos amigos y seguiré involucrada con la escuela gracias a la comunidad que se crea entre alumnos, ex alumnos y profesorado. Ahora empiezo mi carrera profesional como desarrolladora y sé que sigo contando con el apoyo de la escuela.
Se la recomiendo sin dudar a quien quiera aprender a programar. -

Great experience
I've recently finished the part time bootcamp (remote) and it was a fantastic experience.
The program is very intense but it's very well structured and have a great student platform. In 3 months i've learn more than a whole year studying on my own.
Great teachers that are always happy to guide you. One of the best points it's that you have unlimited one to one mentoring sessions. -

Stunning career support and mentorship
Read more Read less of Kevin Soria's review
I'm thrilled to have choosing 4Geeks Academy when I was looking to change my career into coding. They specialized in Python, and that was one of the reasons I decided to do it.
After 9 weeks of arduous work and a very challenging program, they started helping me a lot with tailored coaching for every job opportunity I was getting.
We did several career support coaching sessions for around two months; we went thru my CV, my GitHub, LinkedIn, and made sure to publish my coding projects. They help me professionally write my personal story and also referred me to my current employer.
It's been almost a year and they are always there for me; I'm still asking for help whenever I need it. -

Incredible support to the students

I started the academy without any coding background, from a completely different industry.
I every bit of the course; the teachers were terrific, really supportive! They never got tired of anyone's questions and explained very well. There is a chat support system where you can ask questions with a max 20 min response time, which helped me a lot because I would not get stuck for a long time. Also, I could ask for 1-on-1 mentorships any time.
The community is also excellent; today, I continue to stay in touch with the academy a lot. I would happily recommend this school to everyone interested in becoming a software developer. -

Love the community and support
My experience great; I already had coding knowledge, but I was looking to update my skills to modern technologies like React.js, Python/Flask, etc.
After finishing the bootcamp, I secured a Software Engineering position at a local company. They helped me with mock interviews, resume preparation, and help me practice for the interviews even when they were about different technologies. -

I was looking to start my professional career as a software developer. I decided to go with 4Geeks Academy because they were teaching python and eventually want to specialize in Machine Learning and A.I.
The moment I started studying, it felt like a very friendly environment with small classes and a lot of mentoring. They don't lie when they say you can have unlimited mentoring for life!
After 9 weeks of hard work, I graduated from the bootcamp, and they coached me to build my Resume, Linkedin, Github. They also coached me tailored to the opportunity that I was getting; we would discuss approaching the interview and setting goals based on my career goals. We also did training on particular technologies required for the opportunity.
I was impressed with their online platform, with daily organized goals, hundreds of auto-graded exercises in English and Spanish, and very cool projects.
I'm delighted with 4Geeks Academy, and I would recommend it to anyone interested in starting a coding career! -

Desde el inicio del bootcamp, se nota el acompañamiento que prometen cuando te ofrecen el curso. Son muy abiertos y toman muy en serio los comentarios que se les hacen, e intentan crear la mejor experiencia adaptándose a las necesidades particulares de cada grupo. Es lo bueno de ser sólo 7 en la clase.
Los profesores son muy comunicativos y pacientes. Siempre con buena disposición y van más allá de lo estrictamente necesario para que todo quede claro y el estudiante aprenda.
El sistema de mentorías es muy flexible. Tenía dudas antes de incribirme sobre si, de verdad, iban a ser mentorías ilimitadas. La verdad es que incluso incentivan que las tomes y que sean todas las que necesitan.
En cuanto al contenido, al ver las opciones de trabajo, te das cuenta que muchas piden las tecnologías que aprendiste en el bootcamp. Eso es muy grato de ver, después de haber invertido tiempo y dinero en un bootcamp.
El acompañamiento de por vida se agradece, sobretodo cuando vas a empezar con las entrevistas y tienes que preparar el CV y hacer las cartas para aplicar. Tienen sesiones personalizadas para hacer entrevistas ficticias y para ayudarte a preparar para todas las entrevistas. Te ayudan en todo.
Es un programa muy completo que cubre todo lo que necesitas para empezar o actualizarte en el mundo del desarrollo de software.
Sin duda, muy contento. Recomiendo totalmente este bootcamp! -

Excelente bootcamp

Entré en 4Geeks Academy gracias a un concurso en redes sociales, recibí una beca por la semana de la mujer para el bootcamp de full-stack software development en modalidad remoto part-time. La experiencia ha sido excelente, el currículo es genial y no solo he aprendido programación sino también otras cosas, como por ejemplo el manejo de la frustración. Esta experiencia me ha hecho crecer profesionalmente. Tanto los profesores como resto del staff es super cercano, mi profesora se ha convertido en un referente para mi, explica muy bien y se preocupaba por cada uno de sus alumnos, también se preocupaba por mantener nuestra motivación en alto para que siguiéramos aprendiendo. Las mentorías son uno de los aspectos más importantes que tiene este bootcamp, te acompañan durante toda tu vida laboral, además te dan consejos y formación, es una de las partes que mejor funciona en 4Geeks Academy España, nunca te sientes sola.
Si estás pensando en hacer un bootcamp recomiendo 4Geeks Academy, hay que esforzarse y dedicar tiempo pero merece mucho la pena. Aprendes muchas cosas en muy poco tiempo, ¡yo estoy muy contenta!. -

After a long search, I decided to enter this bootcamp thanks to its program and all the good reviews I found. Every part of the program is studied in detail and all the professors and mentors are prepared and ready to help even outside the course hours. Here you will have access to mentoring session every time you need; also all the staff will help with your learning path and job search, taking care of how you build your CV and Linkedin profile.
So if you are looking for a good bootcamp where to learn and feel at home you should definitely opt for 4Geeks Academy! -

Since the beginning of the course the environment felt like we were all friends even though it was the first that we met. From the country manager to the teachers and students, the entire staff makes you feel like home. Educationally speaking I have to say that I had the privilege to have an incredible teacher, Jimena, explains really well and she cares about each of her students. Really good experience overall. -

The best coding bootcamp in South Florida, without a doubt! The instructors are very knowledgable, the curriculum is awesome (One of the only schools teaching Python), and the pricing and schedule were not only manageable but also a value! I highly recommend them. As an Alumni, I can attest to the programs ability to make you an awesome developer. Also, they have great Alumni support in place, so it really is a lifelong relationship. -

An amazing experience

I attended the Bootcamp provided by 4Geekx Academy. During the course, I had doubts if that was the right choice because it was everything new to me comfort zone 0. However, I did my best to learn every detail that I was being taught. Once the course was over I got the feeling that I knew nothing and of course though that I still had a long way to actually be a Junior Developer.
My feeling about it was just frustrating because as much more I passed hours studying much more concepts and programming languages there were to learn. It's like you open one door and there are 20 other doors to open after. The important thing was the support I've had, the support actually I still have from the school. They were there when I could not find the answer, that attention gave me the strength I needed to keep going and get a job.
I landed in a couple of interviews and in all of those I was couched in how to proceed. In other word these guys know what they are doing. I appreciate that I choose them to teach me how to code.

I am a former student of this amazing school. I graduated from their first program at the downtown campus with a Full Stack Software Development certificate and it was one of the best decisions I have made.
Before graduation, I was able to secure a job (thanks to their fantastic career support). Now, I have recently branched out at started my own web development firm. This was all possible thanks to the teachers and staff at 4geeks.
If you are on the fence, I suggest you give their program a try. They have everything you need to be a successful developer as well as partner companies that you can interview with. Their job placement rate is SUPER high (over 90% I believe was the last statistic I heard) and they provide wonderful support to alumni.
Check them out, you defintely won't regret it.

Don't waste your time

I signed up to do the 4Geeks Academy cybersecurity bootcamp that was supposed to begin mid-January. 3 days before the course was due to start they shifted the entire start and end date by 2 weeks to "give people more time to do the pre-work".
Our first tutor left the company after a week or two. He was replaced by one of the mentors for a week, a week in which we spent all 3 classes doing the work of one class because of the people who barely understood what was going on and still didn't have all the programs they needed. He was replaced by another tutor at which point I tapped out. I found out later that he also left the company and now they're on their fourth tutor. Given how much time I was spending teaching myself the curriculum I felt it would be better to save my money and continue doing that.
The refund process has been a nightmare. Their own contract states pro rata refunds are given 'within 30 business days from date of termination'. I first requested it Feb 28th. I was told weeks ago I would "likely" get it within 2 weeks. That didn't happen. Then it was "you'll get 50% of it next week and the other 50% the week after". That didn't happen. Next I heard "you'll get it all back next week". Unsurprisingly, that also didn't happen. As of April 25th I am still waiting for my refund which should be about $4100 USD.
We have long since passed the 30 business days they laid out in their own contract so they've breached that. They have completely given me the run around. They couldn't even do the math on my refund correctly. I had to ask 3 times for them to confirm the figure I had worked out was correct. They corrected it and I asked for their formula since we had very different figures and they came back to say they'd done the math wrong and I was owed a little more than their original figure but less than mine.
I found them unprofessional, lacking in structure and organisation but worst of all is the refund process which has been dragged out to an extreme degree causing a great deal of stress and for me to have to contact the Better Business Bureau and a lawyer. I would recommend you avoid them at all costs. -

Don't waste your money

I am a former student of 4Geeks Academy, Full Stack Developer (2023). I don’t gain anything by writing this, on the contrary: I risk the academy trying to take action against me, but I honestly feel scammed. If with this review I can help even one person avoid wasting the €5,000 that I threw away, I will consider it worth it. Let me start with the ending: this course is absolutely useless for getting a job. In my class we were 15 students and, more than a year later, only 2 found jobs… and only because they were already programmers before joining. The 4Geeks certificate doesn’t open any doors: companies don’t care about it. The only thing that matters is having a solid portfolio (which you don’t build here, except for the final project). The most disgraceful part is the false advertising: they promise immediate job opportunities and high salaries, sometimes even before finishing. But when you graduate, suddenly “it all depends on you”: on the thousands of extra hours you put into building a portfolio and accepting months of unpaid internships (some even paid-for). And if you don’t do it, they blame you and wash their hands. Who pays the bills in the meantime? Why don’t they tell you this before charging €5,000? They talk about a “unique method: learning by doing,” which is absolute nonsense, and about becoming a full stack developer in 4 months with barely 100 teaching hours… impossible. In the end you scratch the surface of several languages and master none. Let me stress this: the average salary in Spain is €1,500 per month. It takes at least two years of saving for a person to gather €5,000. To invest that effort and hope in a course that is absolutely worthless is devastating. That’s why I find it outrageous that they play with people’s expectations. In summary: this course is pure smoke. Marketing is the only brilliant thing they have — and they do it very well. If you really want to learn, pick one or two languages, invest your time in free tutorials, online communities or even ChatGPT, which teaches more and costs €20 a month (it explains code amazingly). And give it several months of consistent work. Everything is already on the web. Don’t waste your savings. P.S.: Reviews can be bought…
