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 was a positive experience for me! I had been coding on my own for a few years but needed the accountability of a formal classroom commitment to get become a marketable developer. Actualize helped me develop skills for the job market and also gave advice about how to job search. I really enjoyed the instruction and found the advice helpful.
Word to the wise: taking the course is not enough in and of itself, even though the material is sound. You must be networking and continuing to learn after you graduate. Ask specific questions about the networking strategies associated with the program and be sure that you are as committed to your search as you are to your studies. Finding that first dev job isn’t easy but it is extremely rewarding!
Actualize helped me make the transition to full time developer work and I will always be grateful!
