    Amazing Experience

    There are many people out there who say that anyone can learn to code and become a developer. Coder Foundry's immersive curriculum and the instructors teaching styles proves this thought. Before joining the cohort, I had a few years' experience. I joined a team where experience varied amongst our team. The instructors were able to tailor their teaching styles to match everyone's comfort level with the languages and everyone was able to complete the required objectives. As for myself, eve...

    Challenging, but fun and totally worth it

    I honestly can't say enough good things about Coder Foundry. I'm sure we all have experiences in courses or in classes where it feels like they are just pushing you toward passing a test and padding their success rate. This isn't that, at all. From the recruiter, to the instructors, and even to the founder of the program, you immediately feel a sense of welcoming, and a want to help you succeed. The instructors worked with my cohort to make sure we not only finished the projects we were ...

    Coder foundry

    I built grown up apps with coder foundry. I appreciate them for the same. Compared to other bootcamps, these apps really look and feel professional. Students do great as long as they can put in the work, stay on course and ask good questions. I was comfortable with most of the content but the first c# app we built, felt overwhelming. It was a sign of growth if anything. I stayed on course, looked at problems with a small scope by breaking them down and after the second app I built,  I fe...

    One Above All

    I first found Coder Foundry 2 years before I was able to apply, I had to wait for the right time and moment to become an applicant.  I had joined another online boot camp that has gained a lot of traction since Covid first started back in 2018, and my experience was just okay to say the least.  In my heart I knew Coder Foundry was the right place to be.  I became hooked through a different lens.  You have an owner of a company putting his face on the internet, not pushing an agenda, givi...

    An honest Bootcamp like no other!

    I went to another bootcamp before this one and realized too late it wasn't what I was looking for even though I asked questions beforehand. They reassured me everything was going to be ok, but it wasn't. When I stumbled upon Coder Foundry on YouTube, everything they were saying resonated so greatly with what I was searching for and Coder Foundry tells you everything up front. It's going to be work and you're going to need to dedicate your time for the full 12 weeks but definitely worth i...

    The Best .NET Bootcamp Available

    I joined Coder Foundry for their March 2023 cohort as I was specifically looking for a course that would help me build a portfolio of work using Microsoft's .NET framework that would leave a great impression with potential employers, and one that had a dedicated job assistance program that would guide you through to breaking into the industry with your new found experience. Through my research, I found that Coder Foundry was the best choice for me, as they were one of the best reviewed b...

    Look no further.

    After a lot of research, I decided to apply for Coder Foundry and fortunately was accepted into the live instructor-led class. I definitely do not regret this decision. Jacob and Antonio were some of the best instructors I have had to date even after completion of my bachelor's degree. I can confidently say that Coder Foundry was THE reason I was offered a job. As Antonio said, the hardest part is the job application process. It took 5 months until I landed a role and during that time, I...

    I have first-hand seen Coder Foundry transform people's careers! I have met a handful of Coder Foundry graduates in-person who now work as junior and mid-level developers.  I therefore became convinced that I could pursue software engineering as well, and gain strong training through CF to help me in my first developer role. I was blown away by the quality of this program and the down-to-earth attitudes of the team. I now have a modern, online portfolio, multiple sessions of interview pr...

    Great Experience

    The Coder Foundry course was great. I believe the curriculum was perfect for a beginner like myself, as it started off with the basics and evolved throughout the course into an in-depth look into .NET & C#. I was impressed and happy with the amount of individual time I received when I needed help and the encouragement from the instructors was extremely helpful. I feel like I learned and accomplished a great deal after graduating which will enable me to apply the course to a future ca...

    A for-profit school luring you into a predatory loan!

    Unless you actually know a little bit about coding it will be very hard for you to pick up on this skill they promised that anyone can learn! The ISA loan they put you in its predatory and you're locked in it for 10 years whether you graduate or not. They also use their own employees to boost ratings on review sites like this, so take it from an actual student who did the program with no coding background, 99% of our class did not graduate because we simply did not learn. Lectures were l...

    We strive to make sure that everyone who attends Coder Foundry has the best experience and outcome. We sincerely apologize that your time with us was disappointing and didn’t live up to your expectations.

    We appreciate you taking the time to let us know your thoughts and if you want to reach out to us and address anything directly we would be more than happy to discuss how we can help.

    The acceptance process at Coder Foundry involves a stringent screening process. We enroll students with any level of experience who we think can be successful. This includes those with no prior experience in coding. We only accept twenty or less students per cohort despite many times more applicants. If a student passed that criteria we thought they were capable of graduating and becoming a developer.

    We offer a two-week, no questions asked, refund. If a student feels like the program isn’t for them, after two weeks, we provide a full refund or terminate any loan/ISA agreement. After two weeks any charges are pro-rated based on the student's time attended. A student can choose to terminate their enrollment at any time.

    Coder Foundry offers three payment options. Cash, traditional loan, and an income share agreement (ISA). An ISA is not a requirement to attend Coder Foundry and is not a traditional loan. While the ISA isn’t the cheapest option (cash is the cheapest) it offers a lot of flexibility and $0 money out of pocket. 

    We are very transparent about the terms and conditions of our ISA program and all details can be found at https://www.coderfoundry.com/launchpad. It’s basically 36 payments of 15% of your income, capped at $25k, unless you make less than $40k or are not currently working. Your ISA does expire after 10 years even if you haven’t made any payments. While most of our students are successful and make way more than $40k, we understand that life happens and an ISA can protect a student from paying if they don’t meet the income criteria.

    Employees do not leave reviews as students. All reviews on Course Report are from validated students.

    Coder Foundry has never in our nine-year history had a failure rate of 99%. A typical class graduation rate is around 80%. 

    We think Coder Foundry is the toughest boot camp in the industry. We know it’s not easy. The program is designed to give students the best possible chance of securing a job upon graduation. With that in mind, we require students to spend 40 hours a week in class with an instructor. This is a full-time immersive bootcamp experience that to some could seem long and tedious, but we feel it’s necessary.

    While employee changes are a part of running a business, we always aim to have a minimal impact on students. Our current placement staff has been in place since 2021 and prior staff were in place since 2016. Our placement staff is dedicated to helping students post-boot camp by contacting companies, assisting with applications, reviewing resumes, arranging interviews, and assisting with interview preparation. Our placement staff proactively calls companies on a student's behalf to present their portfolio and arrange interviews.

    Post graduation we offer lifetime access to learn.coderfoundry.com/ (our online self-learning platform) to keep a student's skills up to date. 

    As a previous student, you're entitled to our career placement services and access to the online platform. Please reach out and we’d be more than happy to help. We genuinely want you to be successful and are committed to every one of our students.

    Coder Foundry is a great way to establish your foundation in your skill set and be prepared for a role as a developer. The instructors, Antonio and Jacob, are both very knowledgeable and ready and willing to help you if you're ready to put in the work. It's not easy in that it is A LOT of work.
