CodeOp Reviews
- I did quite a bit of research before choosing a bootcamp — read many reviews, spoke to alumni and visited the campuses of almost every bootcamp in Barcelona, but CodeOp really stood out to me. Everyone I met was so welcoming, transparent and, most of all, passionate about what they were doing. I decided to join the full stack bootcamp in September and I couldn't be happier with my decision. I went in with some basic programming skills and a lot of doubt and left with a solid foundation in modern web technologies and 2 job offers within 2 months after the bootcamp.
The way CodeOp has supported me (and still continues to support me) has been amazing. There was genuine interest and attention to our well-being all throughout the bootcamp. The teachers are very knowledgeable, enthusiastic and patient. I always felt comfortable asking questions and making mistakes. And even though it was remote, there was constant communication and they managed to make us feel part of the community from a distance.
The curriculum is very well thought out and constantly adapted to stay up to date with the latest technologies. It starts with the basics and if you already have some coding experience, the first week will be easy, but the pace picks up fast. What I really loved was their personal approach. If you want to be challenged, you can get more difficult assignments. If you're struggling with a certain topic, you'll get more 1 on 1 support. During the project phase, you can even request additional lectures based on your interests and needs for your personal projects. This really allows you to grow as much as you want.
Furthermore, now that I had my first weeks as a paid developer, I can tell that CodeOp's curriculum prepares you well for the real world. Because working in a team is about more than just knowledge of JavaScript, the bootcamp experience also teaches you how to collaborate with other developers, read code that's not written by you, use documentation and navigate the tech industry. And CodeOp's support doesn't stop after the bootcamp: they connect you to their network, you keep access to the resources and you can always ask for advice.
If you're doubting (like I did) whether it's really possible to change your career and become a developer after a bootcamp — it is. But it's not magic! It requires a lot of hard work, long days and focus. A bootcamp is just one step on your path to becoming a developer. You have to be prepared and continue learning afterwards. But if you give it your all, those 3 months can really be life-changing. And CodeOp will be there to support you every step of the way.
- Amazing experience!- 12/11/2020I finished the full time Full Stack Development course so weeks ago and cannot be happier with the experience. The curriculum is extremely good, and still we learnt so many more extra things than the expected ones! The instructors are simply awesome, their enthusiasm is contagious and you can feel how much they love coding, which makes the classes and the learning experience so much more enjoyable.
The projects, lectures and activities are all very well thought and the white boarding practice, coding challenges, and career week were all extremely useful.
I loved how much I learn and how I have felt confident coding on my own and building stuff since the bootcamp ended, but most importantly I loved how great of a community CodeOp is. I always felt like I was in a safe space, fully supported by the staff and like each one of us mattered and was capable of doing great things.
I would (and will) recommend this bootcamp to anyone since it was really a life changing experience!
- Life changing experience!- 11/26/2020Susan Hirego • Graduate • Course: Full Stack Development Part-Time • Campus: Online • Verified via LinkedInI would like to express my gratitude to Katrina Walker for the opportunity accorded to me to attend the Full Stack Web Development bootcamp on scholarship basis. You have changed my life, my perspective on the industry and opened the door for more opportunities for me and the communities i serve in Uganda.
I specifically liked the depth of the course material and the fact that I can always re-watch my classes for reference as I put my skills to practice. The quality of course contents is excellent and well-coordinated, the entire CodeOp community is vey friendly and helpful; the communication and feedback between the leaners, instructors and alumni is timely and excellent!
To my instructors and the CodeOp community; thank you so much!
- Felicia • Graduate • Course: Full Stack Development Part-Time • Campus: Online • Verified via LinkedInCodeOp is so much more than a school. It is an inclusive multicultural community of professional and dedicated people who root for each other and watch each other grow. The CodeOp team is always there to support you and encourage you if the "imposter syndrome" takes over. I started my educational journey through tech right after the pandemic began. The Bootcamp made the quarantine so much more engaging and kept me motivated. If you start with zero coding experience like I did, you might feel a bit lost at first, but everything starts making sense in the project phase when building web applications. Moreover, CodeOp offers comprehensive career guidance vis-à-vis the tech industry's hiring process, which helps to understand better what the job market looks like and what to expect in your technical interview. Thank you for a transformative educational journey, CodeOp.
- Una gran experiencia!- 7/22/2020Alba Pons • Front-End Developer • Graduate • Course: Full Stack Development • Campus: Online • Verified via LinkedInSuper contenta con la experiencia en CodeOp, es un curso intenso, de 11 semanas, pero muy, muy recomendable. Vale la pena hacer la pre-work que te envían antes de empezar el curso, esto te permitirá no ir tan perdida cuando empieces el curso. El programa es muy completo, intenso, rápido, muy rápido, pero vale mucho la pena, aprendes muchísimo!
La red de soporte técnico durante todo el curso es espectacular, en todo momento puedes contactar con compañeras y profesores / as para resolver dudas.
Si tienes ganas de aprender y de trabajar fuerte para conseguir un cambio en tu vida, no lo dudes! :)
- Life Changing- 6/1/2020Naijeria Toweett • Graduate • Course: Full Stack Development • Campus: Barcelona • Verified via GitHubI had been contemplating a transition into tech for a while when I decided to google for a tech bootcamp. I had two challenges – time and money. As a working mother of three there were demands on my time and monthly budget. I had initially dabbled in free online classes; at one point I had even paid for an online course. Juggling work and family and finding time to study, it was very easy to fall behind and not keep to my study schedule. I needed something I would be able to commit to for a period of time - 10 – 12 weeks was manageable and I needed an institution that could provide not only a scholarship but a fee payment plan as well that would not make me overstretch my finances. Code Op checked the two boxes and in addition, the fact that it situated in Barcelona Spain the weather was perfect and the visa process painless: two key considerations if you come from Africa (or maybe it’s just me.)The curriculum was intense and engaging. In the first 6 weeks, one gets to understand the fundamentals in morning lectures and as well as put into practice new knowledge in the afternoon working on assignments. Monday through to Thursday typically would involve problem solving sessions from 9 – 10, then lectures for about 2 hours and review of the previous days coding assignment then the afternoons would be spend working on coding assignments. Fridays involved, guest sessions and weekly tests to gauge comprehension and application of things you learnt during the week. Week 7 – 10 was fun, the climax in my book of the bootcamp. It was all about putting all we had learned , in the previous weeks, into projects, creating your first minimum viable product (MVP) then adding a feature to a fellow student MVP and lastly the group collabo project, where you had to work with fellow student to create a product from scratch, separate responsibilities in delivering the final project and showcasing your finished work.During the period of the course, you have one on one sessions with the career coach and networking opportunities. Week 11, the last week, is career week and you have chance to improve your white-boarding skills, work on your CV and LinkedIn profile and prepare for the real world.Code Op uses Slack to keep us connected to the lecturers and mentors as well as ourselves as students. Two months after graduation, I am still part of the community and I am also able to be there for new and incoming bootcamp students and still get support in the job search and navigating life after bootcamp. We discuss coding, big up projects but also share cool resources and job links that we may come across… there is even a mouth-watering recipes channel.Code Op have an open door policy, you are able to access support from the staff when you need it. To be honest , it didn't have to be code related...it is 360 degree wholesome support. The staff is approachable and non judgmental. The fact that a number have transitioned careers and understand the pressure of going through a bootcamp makes the engagement with them meaningful and fulfilling.CodeOp is housed at Cloud Works co working space, this provides an atmosphere to mingle with a great start up and take part in tech and business networking opportunities.
I recommend CodeOp specially given that it is inclusive and non ageist! I was embraced as a 45 year old , renaissance woman , mother of three. I thrived and I am better for it. …you are never too old! If you are thinking about it - #JustDoIt
- Great Bootcamp and tech community!- 3/31/2020Alessandra Sampalean • Graduate • Course: Full Stack Development • Campus: Barcelona • Verified via GitHubI'm a CodeOp graduate and happy to be part of this amazing community! The learning experience is as intense as you would expect, but the support is always there :) Besides learning how to code and improve my problem-solving skills, CodeOp offered me a diverse range of skills for networking. Overall, my Bootcamp experience was much better than I expected!
- Best bootcamp in Barcelona!- 3/30/2020Viktoria Toth • Graduate • Course: Full Stack Development • Campus: Barcelona • Verified via LinkedInRecently graduated from CodeOp Full-Stack Development course and I am more than satisfied. The CEO and all the teachers are amazing. I checked out other bootcamps, what they can offer and honestly think CodeOp's curriculum is the best. They offer really good workshops also during the bootcamp. I finished my course remotely because of COVID-19 and they were so well-prepared for the fast change. I highly reccomend the school.
- More than a bootcamp!- 11/29/2019Fernanda Arroyo • Student • Course: Full Stack Development • Campus: Barcelona • Verified via LinkedIn
I'm a current student at Codeop Barcelona, so far the experience has been amazing and they have honestly surpassed my expectations. The support we get is amazing, more than a coding bootcamp I've found a community. Even if my bootcamp is a part-time the professor is always on Slack when I have any doubts about activities, all of the staff is super helpful and friendly, we have coaching sessions and lots of activities outside the curriculum like mentors, access to special material, conferences/meetups among others.
You'll find many coding bootcamps in Barcelona but with Codeop you'll find a community of women that support you doesn't matter in which stage of your professional journey you are. I'm very happy about the bootcamp I choose, couldn't ask for more!
- Intense but great learning environment- 8/25/2019
I attended this bootcamp as a launchpad to pivot from a business career into tech, and CodeOp gave me just the rigorous foundation, with the right mix of complexity and support I was looking for. The curriculum focuses on building logic and critical thinking skills, which transcend all frameworks and languages, and this gave me the confidence to tackle problems head-on. Assignments after each lecture in the first 6 weeks helped me build on the newly acquired knowledge, and by the project phase when we were required to build 3 projects, everything started to make a lot more sense! The admin team is also accessible and very responsive to feedback to suit the needs of students so no one feels left behind. Small cohort sizes also build a collaborative spirit and support, and weekly mentorship sessions allowed me to explore the numerous possibilities of a career in tech. At the end of the bootcamp, the adminstration and staff were also very supportive during the job search process and in preparing me for interviews. All in all, I found CodeOp to be a no-judgement zone that fostered the right atmosphere to take this life-changing step.
- Intense learning!!- 5/6/2019
From the first day, we dove into Javascript and began problem solving. The curriculum is intense and moves at a quick pace. It only all comes together and you realize how to apply everything that you’ve learned when you start building projects in week 6. I can’t believe that I built what I did! In the end I came out with 3 strong portfolio pieces. The teachers are there to help you develop the software engineer mindset and they care about your success beyond the program.
- More than a bootcamp- 6/22/2020Verena S. • Graduate • Course: Full Stack Development Part-Time • Campus: BarcelonaI attended the 6 months part-time version of Codeop's Full Stack Development Bootcamp and loved the experience. Working full-time plus attending class and completing the coursework was challenging at times, but the wonderful team at Codeop made me feel supported every step of the way.
These are some of my personal highlights of the program:
- small class size: I got to ask all of the many questions I had
- continued support from instructors, classmates and the amazing Codeop alumni community when I got stuck solving a problem
- AMAZING staff and instructors who care deeply about the learning journey and career path of each student
- really relevant preparation for getting started in the tech industry (career talks, mock interviews etc.)
- focus on problem solving and thinking like a developer
When the course finished, I was extremely proud of what I had accomplished, but also sad to not come back to class to learn even more the next week.
I would wholeheartedly recommend Codeop to anyone interested in a career change towards tech!
