    Worst Code School

    The course learning instructions are weak. You will not learn much from it and you can not compete with other student from top boot camp code school. The program only last 9 weeks which is not enough time for you to master everything you need to be a good developer. If you looking to get a job after you complete the program, you will not find one because you don't learn enough for companies to be interested in you. If you read through the review, you'll realize the reviews are either fake ...

    Hi Jaymes. 


    Once again, we are really sad by the fact that you are disappointed with our school. As far as I know, it's your second bootcamp which you didn't like. Let me just go through the things you mention to once explain how it works form our part. 


    As you mentioned, the course lasts for 9 weeks and it's been proved by our graduates from both, online and in-person formats, to be absolutely enough to get prepared for the junior developer's position. We have our alumni hired in 1-2 months on average after the job placement support starts. And we have companies which already hired our graduates coming back for more of them. Which shows that they are completely satisfied. 


    As you mentioned, we provide text materials with explanations and code examples + full length video lessons with us writing and running the code explained in the lecture. It allows students to not just read and try the code but also to actually watch how it is done and follow the instructor to fully implement new concepts in practice. And before they will have to create a 'real' app after the course, as you say, students are build fully functioning apps as a part of the course. One of them is a full-stack web app (example built here: https://e-commerce-.herokuapp.com/) and another one is a native mobile app (example built here: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/id1414985238). Both have the server, the database and the front-end parts. So after graduation they are already know how to combine all the bits and pieces into a working application.


    Speaking of the depth for the instructions, jQuery is a long time legacy part of the curriculum, kept there for those students who are willing to learn it for some reason. And it has 5 blocks, not 1. The mongoDB section has all the information needed and the process of building an app with mongoDB is shown in the complete video lesson. Same for the rest of the topics. We actually guide students through the entire process in our video lessons since this is a mentored course.


    The comparison of our curriculum to free tutorials is completely incorrect, since courses on self-learning platforms have much lower level of difficulty and do not prepare a student for a real life work. The exercises either too simple or have an option to see the solution, which is not going to happen in real life. We are preparing our students for applying for the jobs, not just learning programming as a recreational habit. 


    And the refund policy is explained right away on our website, since you get access to all the materials, video lessons, exercises, projects, and there is no way to 'return' it we have to use this policy. It is possible to cancel the participation and get full refund before the starting date of the course, but not after you got all the materials which are actually self sufficient to finish the program. 


    Once again, really sorry to hear that and hope you will find school which is more suitable for you. 


    Best regards, 
    George

    JS fullstack bootcamp in Barcelona Code School

    Amazing place and amazing team who will help to start your experience in tech from scratch or develop your skills more if you already have some experience. The program was intense and we also had the great opportunity to put our hands straight on the code and learn by practicing. The extra thanks of course go to people, who created the personal unique approach and support during all the time of the bootcamp and even after - George & Pawel!

    Barcelona Code School Review

    It was an excellent course. The program is super complete, it becomes very bearable and entertaining. The teachers are really supportive, patient and very committed to student learning. You learn how to code web pages and mobile apps. I finished the course with one mobile app published on AppStore. I highly recommend it!

    Amazing experience !!!!

    I highly recommend the Javascript Full-Stack on-line mentored bootcamp for those who want combine work with studies and acquire knowledge in programming. The bootcamp's program is flexible and adaptable to one's needs. The instructors are always willing to help and in weekly 1:1 sessions you can solve doubts and clarify concepts. Personally,  I think that this have been the best choice that I could ever take.

    I was seriously surprised by how good this bootcamp was. I learned to create full websites all by myself. I am currently working in the industry making more money than I did before and ACTUALLY enjoying my work.

    UX/UI Design Bootcamp

    Great intensive course! 

    Good balance between theory lessons and projects. The small group is perfect to get personal assistance and resolving any doubt. The teachers are very good at adjusting their lessons to students' backgrounds and skills. Also, there are enough projects and content to put a portfolio together at the end of the Bootcamp.

    UX/UI Bootcamp

    I applied to study at the Barcelona Code School in August just one month before the course started. The whole application process was very simple and clear. I was able to have a call with administration of the school to ask all my questions and clarify my doubts. They were always in touch whenever I had questions. The school environment was friendly and welcoming during the whole time I was studying there. Studying process was very intense and full of knowledge.

    Awesome experience!

    Doing the JavaScript Full-Stack Online Bootcamp through the Barcelona Code School was a fantastic decision. I had always been interested in pursuing a coding course, but I couldn't find the right one that would accommodate with my full-time work schedule. This course accomplished that for me. It was perfect for the type of work structure I needed, and the type of thought-provoking challenges I craved.

    I completed the part-time 16 week course; however, I actually far surpassed the ...

    So I learnt React at last!

    Really I had doubts about doing an online bootcamp, but this one hooked me since the first moment. The course has a lot of exercises and if you get stuck the teachers help you right away, so you don't lose motivation. In conclusion, it was a good experience.

    JavaScript Full-Stack Part Time Online Bootcamp

    One of the best decisions I made this year was to take this course.

    Having allready been a front-end developer for around 10 years, with a focus on aesthetics, It was time to take the leap into the full stack and I'm so glad I did it here.

    I allready have a job so I decided to take the part time 16 week course. There is alot of great content, but you do have to dedicate time to it. Just because its part time it doesn't really make it any less intense. I spent alot of ev...

    Go for it!

    Just finished BCS, must say there were some challenging days, but looking back time really flies and it's amazing how much you can learn in only 9 weeks!
    The course is very hands on, you have 1h break to clear your head and disconnect but apart from that it's full on 8h coding.
    Teachers are great, George is a true programmer who helps you understand the code, even if it's the fifth time he has to explain it. Stefano is great, full of energy and always available to help with any d...
