    Amazing Experience

    I am a recent Alum of Coding Dojo. I completed the bootcamp less than a week ago. First I would say that you get out of it what you put into it. I was apprehensive about coding bootcamps but Coding Dojo put my fears to rest. I had some experience in coding but not much. After the first week at Coding Dojo I knew that I made the right decision. The curriculum is challenging and fun. There are plenty of assignments to keep you busy  and for those that come in with more experience there is ...

    Great Learning Experience

    My time at Coding Dojo was definitely incredible. A perfect mix of intense fast-paced learning and fun times with friends I made at my time there. The Dojo as we like to call it provides a great learning environment where the several hours one puts in barely feels stressful. You should do the bootcamp if you're desperate to learn a lot in 4 months and ready to sacrifice a lot on the way, paving a more knowledgeable future where everyone codes!!

    Coding dojo review

     
    I have recently graduated from Coding Dojo and it is the best programming course that I have attended. The platform was really well thought out and easy to use. Lectures and instructors were a great help, it was a recap that made learning the concepts easier and a preparation for weekly assignments. What I liked most is the structure of the course, which is based on "Learning by doing". Assignments helped us develop problem solving and searching skills, which I believe are the core ...

    I went from knowing nothing to being ready to look for a job in three months. While there are many free resources to learn online, there are so many important concepts that would have taken me so much longer to learn about on my own. This has been a wonderful experience for me

    Coding Dojo is a great web development program

         Coding Dojo is good for someone who is looking to get into web development. If that isn't your explicit desire, I'd suggest shopping around some more.

         I was a contractor working as a tier 1 build engineer for a popular software company in Redmond, WA (You get 3 guesses and the first two don't count). The contract company I was working for paid poorly compared to other companies in the area and I was looking for a way out. I wanted to delve deeper into programming, so I ...

    Awesome Experience

    Coding Dojo has been an awesome experience overall. The workload is challenging at first, but if you keep putting in the time and work, you will eventually get out what you want in the end. The faculty here are really nice and caring, and the courses are set up to push you to succeed. The students here are very serious about their work, and I have had the pleasure of collaborating with them. Definitely got a lot out of all of this, and I am grateful for having been here!

    Loved it!

    I loved my time at the coding dojo. I learned how to learn which is the most valuable of all the skills I learned. I now have motivation and determination to learn other programming languages. There seems to be no obstacle that I cannot get over. I am looking forward to continuing my journey as a coder and learning many more technologies in the future. Now we are all equipped to take on any challenge and conquer and learn by struggling. Thanks coding dojo for the great time and the s...

    Overall good. Not perfect but they are always improving.

    - Intense program. You learn 3 stack. Get to know a lot. Each language is about a month.

    - Good algorithm. A new learning platform which still needs to be improved, which is what they are doing I think.

    - TA, remote help at night. During the day they have "20-minute" rule. You need to try find the answers yourself before reaching out to other students, then come to instructor as a group for help. 

    - They have residency program. You can apply and...

    Got a job as a full-stack developer within one week after graduating!

    I'll cut to the chase. Within one week after graduating from CodingDojo's bootcamp program, I got hired on as a full-stack developer. I'd say 90% of my success is due to knowledge I gained at Coding Dojo.

    Presenting yourself as a capable web developer is all that it takes to really find a good job in this industry. Right now, the demand for competent developers is so high that recruiters and hiring managers are actively reaching out to potential candidates. Don't ...

    Recent Grad

    I have recently graduated from CodingDojo a few weeks ago. It has been one of the toughest and most rewarding educational experiences of my life.

    I came in with no previous coding knowledge. I would say that it is not for everyone. A person has to be prepared to work and come to class with a sense of humility and a positive attitude.

    Confession

    I'm not a fanboy, but attending Coding Dojo was one of the best educational moves I've ever made.

    A few points of countering :

    - The instructors are (currently) picked from the best of the previous class. This A) helps keep costs down and B) Helps to grow the course quickly. The instructors, by the way, are not noobs. They were individuals that have exceptional talent and even though they teach full...

    Extremely challenging, but extremely rewarding.

    While my time at CD was extremely challenging, it was also extremely rewarding. It's true what they say, you get what you put in. Me and my close friends at the Dojo spent 10-12 hours a day in the lab, we were genuinely passionate about what we were learning, and now we're all in better places in our life. One thing I would say, don't do it for the hope of attractive salaries, focus on developing yourself and learning as much as you can, because this field of work is already a truly reward...
