I began my journey into the complex and often daunting world of coding and coding boot camps towards the end of 2016. After spending a great deal of time researching boot camps in my area and visiting several campuses, I decided Coding Dojo was best suited for my needs and the best equiped to help me acheive my goals as an aspiring software engineer and developer.

I began my journey into the complex and often daunting world of coding and coding boot camps towards the end of 2016. After spending a great deal of time researching boot camps in my area and visiting several campuses, I decided Coding Dojo was best suited for my needs and the best equiped to help me acheive my goals as an aspiring software engineer and developer.
I began Coding Dojo's 14 week on site program at the end of January 2017 with very little background in coding and programming languages aside from an Introduction to Computer Science course I took at George Mason University and the Pre-Bootcamp work I completed for Coding Dojo. I immediately found the instructors to be helpful but very up front about their expectations - my success in the boot camp was entirely dependent on the time and effort I put into the program; the instructors are there to guide you but you have to take the initiative and take responsibility for your learning.
The three stacks taught at Coding Dojo when I attended, Python, Ruby on Rails, and MEAN (MongoDB, Express.js, Angular, Node.js), are in very high demand in today's job market. Each stack is taught over a four week period with three weeks dedicated to instruction concluding in a rigorous, four and a half hour Black Belt Exam that allows students to demonstrate their level of competency in a given stack. The last of the four weeks alloted to each stack is designated either for make up exams or personal projects. This project week is something that sets Coding Dojo apart from many boot camps because it allows students to build projects that they can add to their portfolios and demonstrate practical application of the skills they have learned beyond those covered in a Black Belt exam. Students can work in small teams or individually. I graduated the boot camp with a personal project in each of the three stacks and that gave me a huge edge when it came time to enter the job market; I not only had a Black Belt in each stack but I had a project that I had built from scratch that demonstrated to employers that I could build a full stack web application from scratch.
Coding Dojo equipped me with the skills and the ability to pick up new skills quickly and efficiently. Attending Coding Dojo truly was a life changing experience. Before Coding Dojo, I couldn't imagine that I could go from coding beginner to a fully fledged Software Engineer in the span of four months. With the help of knowledgeable and very helpful instructors I left Coding Dojo with the confidence that I could not only compete with but overcome many university or college graduates with four year Computer Science degrees. However, in the end you get out only what you put in. If you put in the time and effort you will be rewarded but I did see several students who expected to be hand held throughout the program and they were not successful in their endeavors after leaving Coding Dojo.
