    Not Just A Course, But An Amazing Experience

    Participating in the PM track has been the highlight of my year thus far. I am so glad I decided to push myself outside of my comfort zone. This program has provided such great support from not just the mentors and my team, but the entire community.  I found it to be quite an intense program, but in a good way. I learned how to work collaboratively with a designer and two developers to create a functional MVP. 

    I am proud of what our team has built over the past 5 weeks and am exc...

    Great learning experience

    This experience was one that I'll always remember because being someone with no prior work experience, I learned how a product is developed while playing along with a team and not according to your individual choices which I was used to before this. I enhanced my skills a lot more while working on the product and thanks to the bootcamp I really feel confident for my upcoming interviews.

    Learned Team work

    Co.lab provided me with a remarkable opportunity to solve a real-world problem and dive into project collaboration with a cross-functional team, spanning across different time zones. As someone with no prior experience in this setting, the learning experience was both eye-opening and invaluable. While I had spent months learning how to code independently, Co.lab exposed me to a crucial aspect of software development that I had not yet encountered.

    Skill-building Experience

    The three months I spent with my team at Co.Lab as a Product Designer had a significant impact on my career. We worked on a project from start to finish, and I got to fully experience my role as a designer. While we had room to be fully independent in our thoughts and decisions, we also had sufficient support from our mentor and the larger Co.Lab community. I got a job immediately after the program because I was able to apply some skills I had picked up/applied while designing my team's ...

    Fulfilling team-building Tech experience

    Co.lab does so much to set you up with real-life experience developing a product.  As a Front-end Developer, I learned so much from talking to my designer and fellow developers about project scope and how to talk about designs and all the decisions that go into it.  I came out with a real-world MVP product that I helped develop from the start.  Our project Mentor also gave us invaluable knowledge about how to navigate a project and how to further our goals outside of co.lab.

    Product design Cohort review

    It was a hands-on learning experience, with real time feedback from mentors. Collaborating in real time with crossfunctional teams from different part of the world mimicking the real setting scenario and then delivering an MVP at the end of it all was a masterstroke

    The Best

    I joined Co.lab with no previous experience with working on a project across teammates in a remote distributed team which varying time zones.

    This was a first and very educative one. I got to see another equally important aspect side of the software-building process that I did not know about after months of learning how to code on my own.

    This program helped me build my decision-making skills on what tools to use to accomplish the problem at hand.
