Actualize is an online software engineering bootcamp based in Chicago that offers part-time and full-time bootcamp options. Instructors with professional educational experience teach students full stack web development including Ruby, Rails, JavaScript, VueJS, SQL, and Git. The Online Live classes are conducted in real time with video conferencing. Actualize has a deeply integrated “Job Hacking” curriculum focused on the personal branding and networking skills necessary to land a new job, which Actualize feels is just as important as learning to code.
To apply, students can submit an application via the website, then go through a series of two interviews with an admissions advisor. There are no coding challenges, but students must complete 4 weeks of prework before the program starts.
After the program, students have the option to join its unique Career Support program, which contains additional training for Job Hacking, a job accountability group, and team projects to add to one’s portfolio.
Actualize is an incredible, fast-paced 12 week bootcamp. I have never experienced such an elite educational experience.
From the pre-work throughout the in-person classes in Chicago, the instructores supported and guided us and were always available to come early or stay late to answer questions. Actualize has a unique education model that teaches, demoes, gives us the chance to try our hand at an exercise, and then goes over it again to ensure we are doing it correctly.

This was so incredibly effective; I never left class feelling unsure about the material, I always felt that I had a good grasp on what we had learned that day. Honestly, I would say the teaching here was better than my high school and college experience (and I had some pretty good professors in college!)
Programming can be extremely overwhelming and there is always more to learn but the Actualize curriculum fed us in bite sized chunks which made the learning experience a smooth and enjoyable one.
The part-time classes were incredible and allowed me to work during the day and learn at night; no mandatory homework kept my schedule from getting too overwhelming.
If you are interested in learning quickly and from the best, Actualize is definitely a great choice, I would recommend it without hesitation.
Prepare for your brain to get crunched, because it's a lot, but they will hold your hand the entire way.
