I will also tell my story. I previously worked in board game publishing. The job at the time was somewhat by chance, so I wanted to take a more conscious professional step. The course was rather not difficult. I would have preferred it to be much longer (like twice as long) so that there was more material. But I understand that then it would cost more, so maybe not many people could afford it.
After the course I was looking for a job for about 5 months. Now I do the back end in Python and Postgres at a small company dealing with analytics and IT. I earn a bit more than before and have more opportunities for professional development, so I think it was money well spent :)Overall5.0Curriculum5.0Job support5.0Instructors5.0 -

On the plus side, the course covers a lot of topics, how much content is left on the slides, tasks, workshops, and ready code for further independent work. Plus I really liked the atmosphere of the group, the lecturers, mentor and course tutor who gave us a lot of attention.Overall5.0Curriculum5.0Job support5.0Instructors5.0 -

I also worked as a pastry chef.
My boyfriend, who is a programmer himself, made me realize the existence of the profession of a tester. He told me that it was a good start in the IT industry and gave me a manual tester course at Coders Lab. So I decided to take the risk and it paid off.
Overall impression is very good. I learned a lot, which resulted in getting the ISTQB certificate. I liked the practical classes the most, because I could see what a tester's work on real projects might look like. We also got a lot of tips on how to deal with job interviews, which was also useful. It was an intensive course for a beginner like me, but I think everyone can handle it.
I work as a software quality specialist. This is my second job as a tester, currently I have over 2 years of experience in testing.Overall5.0Curriculum5.0Job support5.0Instructors5.0 -

Now I'm not afraid of Jira anymore :) I recommend the tester course, especially if your mentor is Karol.

The course covered an extremely wide range of knowledge. Because of that it required a huge amount of work - people taking the course should be aware of that. 12 hours a day + time on weekends (preferably the same amount) is the price you have to pay for the opportunity to acquire so much knowledge. There is also a very high availability of teachers and their willingness to support.
For me, as an extremely important part, I have to emphasize Coders Lab's support in finding my way in the job market - the prompts (which appear throughout the course - you can see that making it possible to find a job is the goal of the course), the Portfolio Lab project at the end. It all makes me feel the real value of this course.Overall5.0Curriculum5.0Job support5.0Instructors5.0 -

Dear Mr. Salem,
we are sorry that you got disappointed. Unfortunately, attending IT courses in English language is not very popular among the candidates in Poland - the majority of students prefers lectures in their mother tongue. Therefore we do not always manage to raise the sufficient number of students for an English course.
Kind regards -

Can't imagine a better program

I didn't find it very difficult, but I wasn't starting from scratch either. I already knew how to program before the course, I also knew the basics of Python. However, what I can say in retrospect is that the course was very well prepared, both in terms of organization and content. Up to now, I use the materials received during the course when I need to recall something.
The course gave me a solid foundation of knowledge which helped me find my current job, which in turn involved moving abroad. As a result, my life has changed a lot and I can honestly say that the fact that I took your course contributed a lot to that.)
P.S.: I am currently working as a Software Engineer and my main job is to develop a web application in Django. It deals with both front-end and back-end. In addition, my responsibilities include managing the project backlog and eventually I am to completely take over the role of Scrum Master.

I'm writing this as a newly graduated student - before I signed up for the JS React frontend course I did a really deep research on training companies and my decision could be only one - Coders Lab. Great, friendly, helpful staff, very comfortable training conditions and a very nicely organized open day, during which I had a chance to talk to Coders Lab teachers, recent graduates and recruiters of IT companies - for a non-IT person it's a really valuable thing. I also admit that for me - as a layman - the key issue was the chance of finding a job after the course. And here, Coders Lab offers really good support for its graduates - and I know it not only from their website, but also from the testimonials of friends who attended their courses :) In a word - highly recommended!

I wasn't sure whether I would be able to learn so much within 7 weeks and it was really tough in the beginning but over time I got used to the pace and the group that I was in was amazing bunch of people. I found a job as a junior developer a month after finishing the course. I can recommend Coders Lab to everyone who wants to become developer but has no time and willpower to learn on their own. Seriously, It would take me a year to learn on my own what I learnt at Coders Lab bootcamp!
