From there, App Academy's partnerships team connects graduates with some of the most prestigious tech companies in the industry.
App Academy's curriculum is absolutely fantastic. It is rigorous and often stressful, but you learn at such an accelerated rate (relative to self learning or the like) that I think it's definitely worth the time if you can afford it. A lot of that is due to the excellent instructional readings and videos provided to you, as well as the amazing help from your instructors. You learn full stack web development with a back-end in Ruby on Rails, which may not be the hottest thing out there righ...
App Academy's curriculum is absolutely fantastic. It is rigorous and often stressful, but you learn at such an accelerated rate (relative to self learning or the like) that I think it's definitely worth the time if you can afford it. A lot of that is due to the excellent instructional readings and videos provided to you, as well as the amazing help from your instructors. You learn full stack web development with a back-end in Ruby on Rails, which may not be the hottest thing out there right now, but by the end of the course you will be skilled enough to be able to transition to any other back-end framework of you or your future employer's choosing. The instructors teach you not only about the frameworks, such as Rails, but also about how they work under the hood, which is great to really cement your understanding of core concepts and build your foundation. I'm also a fan of their weekly assessments, which are a great way to gauge how well you're doing in the course up to that point. The material on these is extremely fair relative to what you learn in class on a daily basis, and they are a great way to sharpen your test taking and pressure handling ability.
The people of App Academy, in my experience, are all really great. At least in my cohort, everyone got along beautifully. I can't say this is always going to be true, but I trust in App Academy's hiring process enough to think it should be true for future cohorts as well.
Although the curriculum is very rewarding, it is also very demanding. If you want to excel, you will most likely need to dedicate most, if not all of your time to this course. Though the assessments are fair, you will need to spend a lot time studying for them. Don't be afraid to ask for help! You will get what you put in. Good luck!
