I entered Coding Dojo with no prior coding experience having not written any lines of code aside from their prebootcamp work they had me do to prepare for the 12 week bootcamp. After starting the bootcamp, I was surrounded by other people who were serious about learning, with several people who were much faster learners than me.

I entered Coding Dojo with no prior coding experience having not written any lines of code aside from their prebootcamp work they had me do to prepare for the 12 week bootcamp. After starting the bootcamp, I was surrounded by other people who were serious about learning, with several people who were much faster learners than me. It was intimidating at first, especially because the curriculum was difficult for me at the time. However, this was a good thing because it was beneficial to my growth as it pushed me harder than I would have pushed without that type of environment. It stayed difficult, the whole time, which was actually the part I benefitted from most because it accelerated my learning curve drastically. The assignments were all challenging as I was going but each assignment was built to make me engage in "problem solving" mode of thinking, which was the mode I was in practically every day. Their unique way of structuring requirements and functionalities of the apps we create made me learn to build upon fundamental programming skills and concepts, and adding on to these skills to be more effective at problem solving. Also, thoughout the bootcamp we all had the opportunity to learn by teaching as all the students help eachother along with the help of the instructors.
I learned to be a self-sufficient developer because I had to build skills of searching through documentation with the guidance of the course platform and instructors, and learning new skills in a very quick pace. This skill of learning new skills in technology at a fast rate was the biggest skill I developed here aside from the actual coding knowledge itself. Learning HOW to learn programming was essential to my development.
We went through a 2 week web fundamentals course (HTML/CSS/Javascript and Jquery library to make interactive web pages, then three months of three complete languages, from basic fundamentals to building out functional apps that can be used by people with databases included. These languages were Python, Full stack javascript, Java. Having people with the same goals, learning objectives, and passion for a career growth and change opportunity paired with the structured curriculum designed to build upon fundamental skills towards the trajectory of a self-sufficient career ready developer made this experience worth investment.
I also realized that being in the immersive environment actually reprogrammed my mind in a way where my brain is better able to learn new things well. After the bootcamp, now if I want to learn something else, i know how to approach learning a new language and how to structure my learning outside of the bootcamp, which is great because that is the fundamental skill gets great jobs and careers. There have been other graduates from this bootcamp during our Alumni tech talks where they say they learned certain langauges at coding dojo and then got hired for jobs where other languages were required to know, and still were able to perform at the job because of their ability translate what they learned to learning a new technology. The fact is many websites have been built using many different languages combined, and great web developers and engineers have the ability to come in and learn those new lanuages quickly and understand how the fundamental programming and web development process apply to whatever they are doing.
The career services is also a great feature of the bootcamp because there is a whole week of learning to attract the career opportunities at a high level, along with interview practice, recruitment information, resume and portfolio support, and many assignments from the bootcamp that can be shown off a projects to employers.
Lastly, the bootcamp offers online continued bootcamp services through their online platform that has many more languages and courses offered to go through after graduating. Additional languages and stacks like c#, swift, PHP, ruby, React javascript, algorithm modules, and Amazon web services made this investment last even after the bootcamp was over.
I would definately recommend to anyone who is willing to change their career to the computer programming, web development, software engineering route and also to maximize their ability to learn to enroll in this bootcamp. Lots of opportunities have opened in my life in terms of a career and being able to earn money doing somthing that has flexible and plentiful room for growth. I just read recently that computer programming jobs make up 70% of all Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math jobs in the USA. I'm glad I haver this value in the marketplace now and I feel more secure and optomistic about my future.
