    When you need to touch up your skills!

    Often in the software development and engineering field, I have found it important to find resources that allow me to become a better developer. I have often looked for the right education platform that worked at the pace I do. High volume is important to retention, the more you do it the more you learn, at least that is what I believe. Lambda School goes through an intense course of learning that even an experienced developer can appreciate. It take many years to get great, Lambda School ...

    Computer Science Academy > Dev Bootcamp

    Lambda has its perks: 

    $0 to start Take classes from anywhere Learn from elite instructors

    For me, the last point was most important. I wanted to learn the equivalent of the four semesters in a quality computer science undergrad program in just two semesters. Lambda provided that for me and has opened many doors for me in my career.

    5 stars!

    Opportunity meets skill

    The fact that Lambda presents an opportunity to people who other wise would not have this type of option says a lot for what type of company it is. There is no hidden rules, hidden fees, "whats the catches" or anything of that sort. It is pure opportunity. If you want to be a better programmer they will make that happen. With anything else in life it is still about how much you put in. There is no magic wand to automatically make you amazing at development. but there is a school with instr...

    Dropped out of another bootcamp to attend Lambda. So glad I did

    OK, so I don't want this to just be a rant and rave about the other bootcamp I attended (and paid $10,000 for), but Lambda School was seriously 1,000,000 times better.

    The instructors were experts and very approachable. In the other program I couldn't even talk to instructors.

    Luis was awesome, Ryan was helpful, Sean was great if not a little standoffish, and Beej and Aaron are clearly incredibly smart.

    I had help instantly whenever I neede...

    Review

    I took the web development mini-bootcamp and the part time full stack web development course. It was tough in the beginning but I was highly motivated by the end of the course. It was the first time I worked so hard and invested time and money. But, it was all worth in the end. The teachers were always available to me, and really supportive throughout the process. I had a great time going through the course.

    Decent Experience

    I didn’t have any experience in programming or advanced computing whatsoever. And, my sole intention in joining lambdaschool was to become a programmer and get a job. I did not research anything about the bootcamps, and joined lambdaschool because it was online and cost effective.

    Now, I am glad that I joined lambdaschool but I immediately regretted after the first class. It was way too fast for me. And, I think almost all of the coding bootcamps are paced lik...

    Pick the "RIGHT" bootcamp

    I have been an anti-bootcamp person for a while.  (I have a fair share of friends that have taken them and came out not much better than they went in).  I was doing the normal FCC/Udemy courses and just not making it anywhere.  Have a problem?  Go google it and have a sparatic understanding of the question or get little to no answer at all and just randomly copy and past stackoverflow posts until your tests pass or code does what you want.  This is the overwhelming issue with self learning...

    Very Hard - take your time if you can

    I made it through. I was a part-time evening student, I was working on an assembly line during the day (Lost 30 lbs- not an easy job). I was given a lot of extra chances, extra help, and eventually made it through. I held myself back when I wasn't sure how to deal with certain concepts (redux). You have to put in the reps. But I did make it. I did get a better job!

    Most helpful if you are a junior developer

    I was a front-end developer when I joined Lambda school hoping to learn some back-end development technologies and to find a better and higher paying job. Now I am a frontend developer (with a possibility to move to full stack) at a big tech company with a salary of over $100,000.
    I am for the most part happy and satisfied with the curriculum, the materials and the teachers. The school gives students free and easy access to lots of premium tools which I really liked. The teachers and ...

    They don't even review your code

    They're trying to automate the grading system after they ended the team leads program. Team Leads were other students above your unit that were forced to work for them for minimum wage that were supposedly going to help you move along, answer questions and review your submitted code. Now as long as you submit your work with the right file type before deadline you've passed. No one is looking at your code.
