I took the part time course for 12 weeks monday-thursday about 3 hours at night and I thought that the course was very fast paced and you kind of have to figure a lot of stuff out on your own because that is how you learn the best but also there are a lot of good instructors that will help if needed. I had a lot of trouble personally with the work because I couldn't pick it up as fast as others who had prior experience and it was very frustrating but Sarah really helped me out a lot 1:1 with my work and was always there for me when I couldn't understand it after a while and everyone there really cares about the students learning and future. I would say I think that my Coding Temple experience was very good because I had to challenge myself to learn and grow better. Shoha and Sarah were awesome instructors that really cared about us and our future careers! - Monique VargasStudent • Software Engineering Full-Stack | Part-Time Online • OnlineVerified by LinkedInMay 13, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
AMAZING experience
I started CT in February and just graduated yesterday. I tried out a couple of bootcamps before CT and knew they just werent for me. The culture, the way the curriculum was set up. I LOVED that the student to teacher ratio was about 1:4 (compared to others bootcamps where its about 1:15). Brendan & Brandt were there ANY time you needed help and made sure you understood what was being taught. No question was a stupid question.

Brendan & Brandt were there ANY time you needed help and made sure you understood what was being taught. No question was a stupid question. They knew we were beginners, and were VERY patient with us. Its hard work and you will HAVE TO study and spend most free time studying and coding to fully understand everything; but thats what you should be doing when you really want to learn something anyway so it goes hand-in-hand. Our instructors made it known it is a very fast paced course and set us up for success every step of the way. Id recommend this course to anyone that wants to learn how to code! Thank you Brendan & Brandt for being the best instructors! - Emma BorsavageGraduate • Software Engineering Full-Stack | Part-Time Online • OnlineVerified by GitHubApr 27, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Coding Temple ROCKS - a challenging yet rewarding program
I took a huge chance joining the full stack software engineering program. I had concerns that this program would be something that would be too complex for me to fully understand.

My instructors - Christian and Dylan completely changed my viewpoint on that after the first week. They assured our entire cohort (including themselves) that we were in this together. They did an amazing job explaining the curriculum through lectures and gave us challenging yet enjoyable assignments. They answered in-depth any questions we had and I believe that everyone in my cohort felt comfortable asking a question whenever we needed to. They encouraged us to form bonds with our colleagues learning alongside us and I believe that helped us all to graduate that much more. This program is definitely a challenging one - but you are given more than enough tools to succeed, and most of the time it is actually very fun as well. - Dan RodriguezGraduate • Software Engineering Full-Stack | Part-Time Online • OnlineVerified by GitHubApr 23, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A

You will not walk away as an expert Full Stack Developer upon graduation. You will build a strong foundation for taking the first steps toward a career in software development. While it's definitely the type of course that you get what you put into it, the course is designed to set you up for success. Having taken this course, I can very comfortably say I have a firm understanding on using and/or integrating CSS, HTML, Python, Flask, SQL, JavaScript and React. Additionally, building applications while using GitHub to store, track, collaborate, and share progress/results is a huge upside. Same with working on group projects. There are very niche subtilities that you learn in this course that you otherwise wouldn't while taking a self-taught curriculum and that's personally where I found the most value. Highly recommend this bootcamp for anybody who is serious about diving into the software development industry, great course.
Special shout out to our instructors Christian and Dylan. This has been the best instructor dynamic I've experienced to date. The two worked very well together in ensuring my class had all the tools needed to successfully learn the material. The result was evident in our capstone presentations where each student demo'd high quality, full stack web applications.
Money well spent for me and a worthwhile investment. Would do again in a heartbeat. - Mason BercierGraduate • Software Engineering Full-Stack | Part-Time Online • OnlineVerified by GitHubApr 22, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Engaging, professional, well-paced

They gave a great foundation of information and showed us how to build upon it on our own and with our cohorts. The lectures were well structured and the pacing allowed for more in depth coverage on anything that I felt I didn't understand at first. teamwork and collaboration were just as important as independent work and with every project my instructors were giving helpful advice and critiques. Again the success that I had with this course was only found with the help of the staff and specifically my instructors.

Learned how to build a full stack web application in 3 months. Huge thanks to Christian and Dylan! Christian for intuitive class sessions, and great explanations for complicated topics.

In fact, I felt at ease the moment I did the introductory class and got to know more about the school curriculum and my classmates. My Instructors, Ryan and Alex, are the two most amazing people you will ever meet. Not only are they cool, but also very supportive and will guide you through whatever struggles you will face. Also, the whole entire staff of this organization are all amazing at what they do and constantly pushing you to your dream.
After you graduate, make sure to take full advantage of the Alumni side. It is going to be very fun and resourceful at the same time! AND I highly recommend you feed off the formidable energy from Marlene , Aubrey and Sam because they are going to make sure that you are at the top of your game. Guaranteed!
All I can say is, If the temple could make this guy a well-versed programmer, I truly believe so can you! no matter what work background or stage in life you come from.

Harder Alternative to College

A fantastic experience!

Right off the bat, major credit has to go to my instructor, Christian, for his stellar job of communicating clearly and plainly for a coding newbie like myself.

Right off the bat, major credit has to go to my instructor, Christian, for his stellar job of communicating clearly and plainly for a coding newbie like myself. From day one there was a very fun tone set for our class that took most of the traditional dry/boring-ness of traditional education completely out of the equation. Don't let that fool you however, it was a very intense 12 weeks and requires a great deal of dedication, time, discipline, and research on your own time to truly get the most out of this course. It's very much a "you get out what you put in" scenario so if you're taking the plunge I highly suggest going in 100% and not half-assing it.
The structure of the course is well thought out and makes logical sense as you built a strong foundation of coding knowledge early on in the classroom and through daily challenges, homework, and projects. If there were ever any students that weren't sure of how something worked or if there was ever any confusion on a topic, Christian was to-notch at figuring out a different approach to explaining it to us to make sure that we all stayed together on the learning journey and that no one was left behind.
Overall I will say it was the right choice for me to go with Coding Temple for several personal reasons. Scheduling, timeline, availability of instructors/tutors, budget, and reputation were all very important in my decision to choose this bootcamp over the numerous other ones I looked into. Enough about that though... if you're serious about trying to switch careers into software development you should go ahead and apply now! console.log('Thanks for reading my review!

Highly recommend Coding Temple
TLDR: I highly recommend Coding Temple for its great community and awesome career support if you can take the time to do the pre work and are prepared for the intensity of a bootcamp.
I completed the full time software engineering bootcamp a month ago and just accepted my first job offer. I have prior coding experience which helped me find a job so quickly after graduating, but I definitely credit CT with having the ability to find the job.

I completed the full time software engineering bootcamp a month ago and just accepted my first job offer. I have prior coding experience which helped me find a job so quickly after graduating, but I definitely credit CT with having the ability to find the job.
I felt a great sense of community at CT both during the bootcamp and afterwards. The slack channel is very active, there are tons of extracurricular activities and workshops, and the small cohort size and instructor support is phenomenal. My instructors were Ryan and Alex, and they were amazingly kind, helpful and knowledgable human beings. They took the time to answer every question. With a cohort of about 12 people, it was very easy to get support.
I loved the structure of the class. We start with a 30 minute whiteboard, (this is so beneficial for once you're looking for jobs,) followed by the lecture, a lunch break, and then any remaining time in the eight hour day is a sort of study hall. The cohort TA is available to answer questions as you're working on your homework. This part is "optional" but I really recommend not skipping it. It was so helpful to have that time. There are also evening and weekend TAs, but your cohort TA will be the most helpful, since they are knowledgeable of what is going on in your specific cohort.
In terms of curriculum, some weeks were more intense than others. There were weeks where I really felt like I was learning and processing the information, other weeks where we followed along and wrote long pieces of code without full understanding what we were writing. But this comes with doing a bootcamp; it's more of a survey to give you ideas of what you want to learn. There were weeks that I was working 70 hours, but not every week. In the end, you definitely learn enough to build your own full stack application, something I would have really struggled to do on my own.
The pre work will take more time than they tell you it will. Please give yourself the time to do it! They asked us to read 6 chapters in a python book and do a quiz for each chapter. I wanted to be really well prepared, so I pushed back my start date in order to have time to complete the pre work. I probably spent about 40 hours on it. Some of my cohort mates signed up just days before the cohort started and hadn't completed the pre work. They had a much harder time with the first few weeks of the program. They will also ask you do a html/css tutorial and create a portfolio. Make sure you finish this before you start! And I would recommend taking the time to learn some basic html and css before you begin. If possible, do a tutorial on bootstrap and learn some javascript fundamentals. And start doing CodeWars before the program even starts if you can. This program is shorter than any other bootcamp by 2 weeks; devote those extra 2 weeks to pre work!
I think what I was most surprised by was the quality of the career support. There are 2-3 career workshops during the course but you can basically reach out the career coaches, Marlene and Aubrey, any time. Once you graduate, they switch you to the alumni slack, where there are daily workshops, daily challenges, tons of topics to discuss, and career coaches available for mock interviews and coaching sessions whenever you need. It is soooo comprehensive. They also just started an open source project that alumni can contribute to. Marlene and Aubrey are the dream team; Marlene will tell you exactly what to do to find a job (do everything she says,) while Aubrey will give you the encouragement you need get through the difficulty of the job search. Nate and Sam were wonderful and super knowledgeable technical coaches.
Overall, as with any full time bootcamp, it's going to be super intense. But Coding temple is a great choice.
