I am an IT professional who wanted to pivot my career a bit my getting a better foundation in programming. After researching various schools, I felt that Coding Dojo would be the best match and I think I was right. I had tried to learn some programming, such as Python, on my own and always struggled to get past the initial steps.

I am an IT professional who wanted to pivot my career a bit my getting a better foundation in programming. After researching various schools, I felt that Coding Dojo would be the best match and I think I was right. I had tried to learn some programming, such as Python, on my own and always struggled to get past the initial steps. Being in a classroom environment really helped me and I feel confident with the foundation I now have.
All of my instructors were great and all willing to meet and discuss any area I was having a problem with. I also know as an alumni I can swing by and pick their brains on any personal projects I have questions on.
I thought the curriculum was very good. Yes, some of it was a little outdated, but this was often called out to us. The parts that were outdated usually had to do with some installation instructions where the original source had been changed. I know they try to keep up with this and if you mention it the instructors will help. Also, if you find something out of date PLEASE report it. There are ways right on the curriculum page to do that very easily.
As far as job assistance, this is an area that I think the student must take the lead on. In my Dojo in LA the job assistance person is great and available. However, I noticed a HUGE number of people did not schedule one-on-ones with her, which was a mistake on their part. I have had multiple one-on-ones with her and I know her guidance has helped with improving my resume, cover letters and LinkedIn Profile. No, getting a job is NOT automatic if you pass the course, there are multiple factors, and everyone's experience is going to be difference. If you need guidance, CALL THEM. They'll do what they can. The rest HAS to be up to you.
The best part of the course was my classmates. I am still close to them and they made it fun. They also helped me a lot. It is a TON of work and I might have dropped without them.
If you do this, put the hours in and grind. It is easy to fall behind, but if you want it, put your head down and work. And follow their 20 minute rule. Struggle for 20 minutes on a problem, if you can't crack it, ask for help. Do NOT fall behind over pride that you think you should figure out something yourself. The course is too much information too fast, you have to keep it going.
I would definitely recommend this course. It's expensive, it's hard, there is NO guarantee of a job when you're done. But for me it was worth it and I am glad I have the skills and foundation in full stack that I now have.
