    Coding Dojo Review

    Pros:
    --The sheer BREADTH of tech you work with in Coding Dojo is quite exemplary: HTML, JavaScript, CSS, TypeScript, Bootstrap, Python, Flask, MySQL, MongoDB, Mongoose, Node.js, React/Express, Postman, jQuery, JSON, Ajax, Java, SpringToolSuite, SpringBoot, APIs, AWS, Azure, and there is so much more nitty-gritty I could name here for each stack. (Note: I took MERN. Some students take MEAN, which is Angular over React, or C# or other stacks, and some take or have taken Python which us...

    Fast paced bootcamp

    I had a great time in the program and felt supported by the community. The instructors are patient and willing to take time to help you learn. I went in knowing almost nothing about coding. While the program can be difficult as it is fast paced, it is extremely rewarding and you will learn a lot in  your time there.

    More Than a Bootcamp

    The reason why I chose Dojo over Hack Reactor and other bootcamps is because of Dojo's community. I learned that they have sports day once a week and they won't kick students out if they fail. Back then I was very depressed, so I needed a supportive school. On the learning side, Dojo is not kidding when they say they will teach you to be a full-stack developer within 3 months. Expect late nights of studying and hurdles throughout. It's critical that you study prep materials before you st...

    If you have no tech experience and are overwhelmed with the search for a BootCamp, that was me too

    I looked for a long time to find the right BootCamp.  I was leaving a career of 17 years for something I had no idea how to do. No background in tech whatsoever.  I compared tuition, reviews, Alumni access/involvement, time commitment, duration,  among other things.  I looked for at least a year and kept coming back to Coding Dojo. I made the jump last November and do not regret it one bit! Coding Dojo's instructors are all dedicated teachers who want to see you succeed.  Most, if not al...

    Strength through Struggle

    Coding Dojo's full-time online boot camp was a challenging and amazing brain-melting adventure. Their teaching style of strength through struggle, promoting self-sufficient programming habits, and working together with cohort-mates were all invaluable and integral to both my learning and overall experience. The availability and dedication of the Career Services Team was a bonus and having this resource available for life is worth it.

    Great for beginners

    Coding Dojo is a great bootcamp for beginners. Concepts are explained in an understandable way and the Learn platform which is the bread and butter of the bootcamp is excellent. You build on concepts slowly instead of learning the more complicated stuff right off the bat.  They also spend an hour every day going over algorithms to prep us for our job search after the bootcamp.

    My only complaints really are the other students. Algorithms are done in groups, and projects at the end ...

    The course is awesome! The teachers and TA's are awesome and very dedicated to making sure that you succeed and understand the material before you are able to pass on to the next course. If you know little to nothing about coding and are taking this course, you'll want to make sure that you take the time necessary to do the reading and practice assignments. Also, try to find a group of people to do group sessions, this also allows you to get ready for the real world as well!

    With the Right Attitude - Valuable Experience

    TL:DR {
    Coding Dojo is an awesome program but not without a few rough edges. If approached with a good mindset and strong work ethic it can turn you into a very competent and self-reliant programmer. This is important and something to emphasize - Coding Dojo teaches YOU how to be a self-reliant and curious software engineer by laying a solid foundation of skills and concepts and providing a structured and vetted educational approach (rinse and repea...
