Avg Rating:4.43 ( 529 reviews )

Founded in 2012, Coding Dojo is a global technology education company that offers three full stack coding bootcamps, full-stack part-time programs, as well as courses on data science and other emerging technologies. Coding Dojo has campuses in Arlington, Berkeley, Boise, Chicago, Dallas, Los Angeles, Orange County, San Jose, Seattle, Tulsa, and online. Students can choose to learn one, two, or three of the industry’s most in-demand web development languages, including Python, Ruby on Rails, MERN, Java or .NET Core. An online option is also available for students who don’t have access to campuses. In addition to an extensive curriculum, students collaborate with peers, join interactive lectures with their instructors, work with career services, and have access to Assistant Instructors during lab sessions. Students experience building dynamic web applications, solving job-relevant problems, learning to think like true software engineers, and discovering how to become a self-sufficient developer.

To apply, candidates answer questions via an online form, schedule an interview with a Coding Dojo staff member, then if accepted, must pay a deposit to secure their place. There is no coding challenge or technical assessment, but depending on the program, students may take a placement assessment to see if they need to enroll in Programming Basics (a free ramp-up course) prior to the bootcamp.

Since 2012, Coding Dojo has endeavored to help individuals from a variety of backgrounds and skill levels transform into professional developers who go on to be hired by startups and companies like Amazon, Apple, Expedia, Microsoft, JPMorgan Chase, DocuSign and Skytap. Coding Dojo also offers career services, including one-on-one sessions with a career advisor, open forums with industry leaders, and comprehensive job preparation.

Coding Dojo welcomes Veterans and accepts the GI Bill at selected campuses, and provides various scholarship opportunities for qualified students.

    I went from knowing nothing about coding to being able to design websites. The amount I learned in three months has helped me become a self sufficient developer who can teach himself new skills and learn as I work on new projects. Its not a silver bullet you won't go there and become an expert but as long as you put in the time during and after(can't emphasize after enough) the bootcamp you will get the opportunity to change careers. And career services really helped me market myself, building a resume, linked in profile and provide advice on companies.

    I had a great experience at the bootcamp! Before deciding to come here i was looking at a few other bootcamps in the bay area, mostly in Berkeley and San Francisco. From speaking with my friends in the field, they said the bootcamps in SF and Berkeley had actual connections with companies and would help you get placed into the programs if you fit the qualifications. Job Assistance was something that was important to me. However, when i spoke to admissions coordinator at Coding Dojo, she said that there would be some assistance in the way of how to interview, resume building, and how to job seek. This made me a little discouraged about Coding Dojo. However, ultimately I decided on Coding Dojo based on proximity to my home in San Jose and because it was FULL STACK. To my knowledge, Coding Dojo is the only full stack bootcamp in the bay area. This was key for me because I wasn't sure which side of software I wanted to be on (front vs backend), so I figured I'd go full stack to figure it out. The curriculum seems current based on the research I've done on current coding languages/technologies. The instructors are great. Each stack has an instructor that "specializes" in that stack. The instructors are well educated, seeming to know a little bit about everything on top of their specialties. They are attentive and helpful and guide you in the right direction if they feel like you need more information or education on a certain topic. Another great key aspect of the coding dojo is their focus on algorithms. Algorithms is key to get a job so at the dojo, we get practice every morning, sometimes twice if you ask for algo in the afternoon. This practice gives you practice talking out loud, problem solving and presenting your solution.  

    Towards the end of my first stack, a new career advisor was hired and straight away it seemed like more was being offered to job assistance. He's brought in recruiters and posted job fair and internship type opportunities pretty often. I would say at the start of the bootcamp, i would've given a 2 star review for job assistance, but now with the new career advisor, its a 4 star review for job assistance. I've recently been graduated for about a week and have had a lot of assistance from the career advisor. In about a months time, i could see the job assistance going up to 5 stars.

    Like others have said, it can be difficult at times (it is a bootcamp after all), but the sheer wealth of knowledge you gain is worth it. I already had the feeling I got my money's worth after the first stack (Python). Learning platform can be a hit or a miss, but it is ever evolving and instructors fix and update things on the fly when mistakes or shortcomings are pointed out. I was lucky enough to have a great cohort and instructors. Will surely miss them.

    The experience is great so far. After completing the Bootcamp, I am more confident to look for jobs knowing the technologies in the job description. I feel like I can learn anything in a short amount of time and everything is achievable if I give effort and time into it. However, job assistance after Bootcamp is quite lacking.

    When I first started at the bootcamp I was nervous but so glad that I was accepted. It took me two tries to understand and pass the exam for Python. Then I went on to learn Java, that was too hard for me to understand so I had the option of skipping Java and went to the MEAN stack. I was a bit overwhelmed with all the different servers and the syntax of Angular. I tried as hard as I could but I couldn't get a grasp on Angular. So I was attempting to retake the stack and when I finally got to, the stack was changed to MERN. It was great, I understood React a lot more than Angular. I'm a slow learner but once it came all together if made sense and it was fun to build a Single Page Application. I'm glad I ended up passing and graduated from Coding Dojo in Burbank.

    So I waited to write this review until after I had been out looking for a job for awhile post graduation. I didn't feel comfortable really putting together my thoughts on the program until my knowledge was put in context of the broader professional world.

    I graduated from the program in late November of 2019. I successfully completed all three of the stacks(C#, Python/Django, and MEAN). The coursework itself gets you up and running in each stack and as they do so you really start to understand the interconnection of the peices at a more fundamental level. The course itself will not make you a Software Engineer, it will however get you to a great place to jump into a Junior Web Developer position.

    The "platform" as they call it is the meat of their program, mostly guided learning through the progressive steps of developing in each stack. The brevity of the platform topics is GENERALLY a plus but in some instances is quite frustrating as they can leave you somewhat in the dark as to the inner workings of some more abstract concepts. They also implement a style of teaching they refer to as "gap" learning. The platformw ill sometimes withold some critical information in an effort to develop the student in terms of being self sufficient. In most stakes this approach was great, but in others the gaps were a tad large. 

    The onsite instructors are awesome, very knowledgable at what they are teaching and passionate about coding and web dev. Many of them are graduates of the Coding Dojo program. I had some reservations regarding this when I enrolled, but quickly came to realize that they know their shit and know how to get you thinking like a dev.

    The career services in the post course period are "okay" i would not rate them as excellent though I do feel the contact I had was great. In general I got the impression they were just stretched beyond capacity. The best guidance they gave was in terms of my resumes structure/style, how I should approach my github, and what my linkedin should look like. 

    In the end Coding Dojo is not without flaw but it 100% got me from 0 to employed in the industry in 6 months.

    So much drama happened in my cohort, that the bootcamp changed my life in a negative way.  I now owe so much money that I am living in a shed with no electricity, barely able to pay my bills and do not wish to enter an office environment where I will be trapped in a building with mentors who show up late to work every day and that tell you, "They can't teach you everything (Obviously).  Don't blame others for your failures. (Which I didn't do.  I just started taking online courses during the bootcamp to answer the questions that they couldn't answer)". Ended up having the top 2 students doing all the teaching there. Also had demonstrations that were slapped together and failed from our backup instructor after the other 3 left during our bootcamp.  I only have internet while I visit family for the holidays to study again.  Then I go back to my shed and an old career.  Don't do this unless you already have lots of money and a contact to get you into the industry.  They were a nightmare for me even though I put in the most time in that dojo out of everyone in my cohort and was helping most of the cohort.  The only thing they did right was hire the top student from our cohort.  He actually liked teaching.

    We are very sorry to hear about your experience Daniel. Early in 2019 when you attended our bootcamp, there were some leadership and staffing changes that have since been resolved.

When you get this, please give us a call at (844) 446-3656 or email info@codingdojo.com, our Support staff has been notified to keep an eye out for your contact.

    This course really makes you struggle the entire time and the people around you are the only ones who can help keep you afloat. Most of the course is doing everything the hard way and in coding that is the way to really learn things a solid way. I've had many conversations with other developers after and during this course and most of them do exactly what we do here in their jobs which is great. One big thing to mention is that even with all the work you are given on top of that you have to do project after project on your own which really takes up your whole life for as long as you are in the course. Overall if you follow the course the instructors and your cohort mates you will get everything you need to work in this field maybe a week after graduation still practicing the stuff that you were taught.
