    Incredible Experience

    It was an amazing experience to have the chance of learning programming in Academia de Código. The master coders were incredibly competent passing us the proper contents to face the real world. The experience is also world class about sharing knowledges with other students and have team projects during the course.

    Junior Full stack Developer

    PROS: 

    1) When you've graduated from bootcamp, your options for employment are pretty open

    2) While some can learn to code and get a job within months, for most people, it's more like years. There's no way we can change careers more quickly.

    3) You will work with people in pairs or in teams, and work together to ensure that projects are realized. Your routine at a code camp will be similar to that of a developer.

    Go for it

    The marketing material of the <Academia de Código_> sounded do cliché. "Oh, life changing!". "From noob to pro in 14 weeks!". That's the duration of the Big brother, apparently. But I wanted to change my life so believing the cliché was all I had. So I took a leap of faith (and wallet because I couldn't afford the course from my own pocket) and went for it. And if my expectations were high they were still blown away. I was prepared for the technical evolution but I was not prepared...

    Amazing bootcamp!

    Fantastic bootcamp with an excellent atmosphere and a teaching method that makes it possible to gain solid programming knowledge and prepare students for the technological area.
    You learn Java, JavaScript, CSS and HTML but learned bases allow you to join a job in other technologies.

    Full-stack Developer

    Definitely the best experience of my life!
    In my thirties I've decided to change all my professional life and join programming world. I did it with the help of Academia de Código and it was one of the best decisions of my life.
    It was not easy (not at all), but I've learned so much in 14 weeks with the best teachers and colleagues.
    In the end of this amazing bootcamp we had the best team helping us to find the job of our dreams, and in a month I got that job offer!

    Thank ...

    Challenging and rewarding ride!

    The bootcamp is an amazing experience overall, it's hard and challenging don't get the wrong but at the same time very rewarding! It's incredible the ammount of knowledge that the staff can transmit in such short time not only from a technical standpoint but also from a human perspective. I can definetly say not only did I grow technically but also as a person, the collegues that shared this ride with me where amazing and really helped me in the whole process.

    Best experience ever!

    At first I thought it was impossible to gather the skill of a Full Stack developer in 14 weeks. I was wrong.. In <AC_> they prepare the cadets to the real world of software developer. It is really intence and you got to work really hard, but it it so worth it!
    I got a job 10 days after finishing the bootcamp! I will be forever greatfull to <AC_>.
    Besides, it's really fun and I made some really good friends there!

    An unique experience

    If you have the right mindset and you are ready to breathe code almost 24/7 during 14 weeks, then I fully recommend this bootcamp. You will actually be prepared for anything else.

    Java Fullstack Developer

    Pros --> Interesting culture overall, knowledgeable and friendly team of Master and Padawans, interesting events, they condesate a lot of content into 3 months, it's both good and bad, but with the right commitment its doable.

    Cons --> Very very expensive course, the price you pay for the course its not represented in equipement, pc's with diferent versions, IDE's with diferent versions, outdated computers that are very very slow, everything was a chore to make on those pc's...

    Hi Paulo, 
     
    Thanks for the feedback, we really appreciate it. 

    We can’t find any record with the name you registered here nor any written feedback similar to this one when our real students finished the Bootcamp. 
     
    Before a Bootcamp starts all our iMacs are checked and updated to ensure every student will get the same clean environment. If one of our students has difficulties with one of our iMacs we try to solve it immediately. Sometimes this sort of thing happens and that’s why we have teams that help students in real-time and spare iMacs in case one has a problem.
     
    I’ll kindly ask you to reach out to me (LinkedIn, email, what suits you), so I can go back and work with the Master Coders and Padawans to prevent that from happening in the next class. 

    Understanding the experience from our student's perspective really means a lot to us, and I’m really sorry if you had a bad experience during the Bootcamp.

    A life changing experience

    This bootcamp was the best decision I could make in my life. It completely changed my life. I went from a broke and  unsatisfied Personal Trainer to a a happy FullStack Software Developer in 3 months. The 14 intense weeks (super intense) made me confident in my ability to code and better yet, in my ability to face any challenge that will come during my new career. Oh, and I was offered a job 2 weeks before the bootcamp ended! If you want to become a software developer, sign up and get re...
