    Don't fall for their scam!!!

    Don't fall for their scam. I graduated from their software development program in 2023. Their curriculum was grabbed from free online sources, they lied about the graduated rates and the placement rates. They lied about helping you get a job as well. All the career service managers ever did was provide you with an excel sheet listing links of job sites and resources that any one can find by googling it themselves. Also half the links they provided were from websites that do not exist any...

    Not worth the money.

    The recruiters promise you that you will be job-ready at graduation, and boast that 80% of their grads get a job in the field within 6 months. If the term “field” refers to the entire job market as a whole, I can believe it. If it refers to Cyber or even IT, forget it. The career services people don’t care if you get a job or not (they get paid either way), but they will endlessly have you change things on your resume so you think you’re making progress. The instructors and TA’s are nice...

    Complete Rip-off

    The cost of this bootcamp was over $16,000. The instructors for the most part “Coding Dojo” graduates. Not at all IT professionals. Do not buy into the lies that the sale marketing team tells you. They will tell you about all the support, the number of IT jobs out there, how you’ll get hands on job ready experience when you finish, lifetime career services and it is all BS. The curriculum is so broken that you do not learn anything. They build you up while you are enrolled so that you do...

    It was worth every second!

    I enrolled as a student of the Software Development Full Time program. It demands from 70 to 90 hours a week, and I can assure you that if you take the time to study and aim to complete all of the assignments on time, you will spend 70+ hours a week easily. Even though the bootcamp is demanding, I can say that every second was worth it. I learned so much with the bootcamp. Their online material, the live lectures, and the insructors were great and they make learning the materials easy. I...

    Over priced and under delivered services.

    Please save your money and go somewhere else. Coding Dojo's Cybersecurity program is overly priced for the very sub-par services they offer. I was excited and assured that you can do this program as a newbie to the tech world. It felt like someone hurriedly threw together the curriculum. I spent my first three months trying to sort through the course work, trying to make sense of sentences that didn't even fit together. It was very poorly structured.  Literally whole paragraphs would not...

    This Bootcamp was worth the investment

    This Bootcamp has very good teachers, they know what they do and where to find the answers to any question (in case they don't know). But they really understand the realms  of Data Science. I was so afraid to join and be left behind but the instructors and TAs were always there to help me push through. I didn't want it to end but Its time to find a job and continue now.

    Not worth the price tag!!!!

    I like many people signed up to Coding Dojo because they made the claim of having you job ready to make a transition in to Cyber Security. After completing the course I can say that it does not help prepare you to be job ready. The program does a good job of introducing you to the field but that is about it, an introduction. $16K for an introduction to the cyber security world is way to much in my opinion. The first 8 weeks are supposed to help prepare you for the ComTIA Security+ exam a...

    Coding Dojo Review

    My experience with coding dojo was not great. Most of the material you can get off like for free and the hours they had available for help was outside my work schedule. Web Fundamentals was the best part but once I transitioned into Python it was awful. They cram so many things in such a small amount of time it was difficult to feel that you learned anything especially working 40 hours a week. The instructors had very little experience, just a year or so just out of graduating coding doj...

    Well intentioned but overpriced

    The short version.
    I believe that this course is good for complete beginners but it is too expensive for the value you get. That's in regards to the knowledge you come out of the program with and your chances of breaking into an engineering role, particularly in this economy. If you are going to go through with the course, I highly recommend taking only 1 stack (i.e., language). They're extremely similar and it's not possible to become proficient in multiple...

    Not a credible college

    Definitely not worth. So regret that I spent that much many while I couldn’t get any job and not even help from their job center. At beginning they talked the way that you will get many job offers after graduation easily however after you graduate your payments start and you need to get a job to be able to pay that money. They are not a credible college and don’t have federal tax I’d do while I just asked for tax return my tax accountant told me that I wound t receive money back even bec...
