    Believe them when they tell you to trust their syllabus

    I wanted to switch from pharmacy to IT and going to Academia de Código was the best way to achieve that! 
    Their 14-weeks bootcamp is really intense but the staff make it so easy to deal with! 
    They are incredible! Their support is amazing, almost 24/7, and the persons that will seat next to you can be your next BFF's.
    Don't waste more time in the search, this is the school that you want to enroll to.

    Great place to learn, waste of money if you're looking for a job

    If you want to learn programming, and you don't want to spend 3 or 4 years in a bachelor degree, the bootcamp it's the way to go, but if you expect to get a job afterwards just avoid it!

    Soon as you complete the course, you are just a number in their record, barely will get any contact or support, the major reason I joined the course was due to the rocket placement which it's nearly non-existing... In my class only half of the students got hired at the end, which goes against thei...

    A Life-Changing Experience

    Attending <Academia de Código_> was one of the best and most life-changing experiences I had in life. The course is very thorough - it's not for the faint-hearted. You put in the work, and get back the job. It's a 14-weeks intensive course, but I had my first job offer at one of the Big Four by week 13! That's why it's so respectable.

    Everyone is so nice, intelligent and funny! It feels like you get into a best-selling sci-fi movie from day one.

    It's hard! Sure... But...

    The best way to learn

    Simply the best bootcamp ever.  I never really liked studying, but <Academia de Código_> makes you learn in a way I've never seen before.  Everything they teach is totally useful and applies easily to any type of software development environment.  They teach you how to programming regardless of language.  I feel happy and supported like a family, I never imagined such a place.  I am very grateful for all of you!  Changed my life!

    Amazing

    All the experience was incredible!
    I'm from an utterly different area and so many times I thought I would fail, but every instructor always had a friend word to cheer me up.
    I assume that it was really difficult. I'd never been in a bootcamp before and I had no idea about how intense it is, but I did it!
    Now I am employed and discovered that my empoyeer admitted a lot of graduated students from Academia de Código - what proves the excellence.
    Yes, I was terrified, but now I a...

    Life changing

    Started with zero experience, got out as a real programmer. More than learning code languages or stack, Academia de Código teaches you to think like a programmer. Definitely a life changing experience.

    Been working as a programmer for the last 5 years, grew from an intern developer to a tech lead.

    A lifeboat for your professional life

    Definitely the best decision I made at a professional level. When you think that you no longer have options, you don't have professional stability, you don't know where to turn, <Academia de Código_> arrives like a lifeboat and gives you the opportunity you really need!
    It takes effort, no doubt, but you leave there more than prepared for the job market.

    Totally worth it

    They don’t only teach you how to code but also how to solve problems and how to think towards programming, since programming is not only writting some lines of code, but also know how the language works, how everything should be structured, why was the language created, you will learned all that and more. All the tools around that programming language that you’ll need to properly develop.
