I was looking for a bootcamp that offered hands-on project based learning, job assistance and career coaching, and could be completed within a reasonable timeframe. I had some previous programming experience from school and work, but wanted to brush up in a few areas. After reading several reviews about top-rated data science/coding programs, I decided to enroll in Coding Temple's 10 week, part-time Python and Data Science bootcamp.

I had some previous programming experience from school and work, but wanted to brush up in a few areas. After reading several reviews about top-rated data science/coding programs, I decided to enroll in Coding Temple's 10 week, part-time Python and Data Science bootcamp.
I must say it more than exceeded my expectations. I was particularly impressed by the rigor and comprehensiveness of the coursework as well the instructor's knowledge and helpful nature. Even though it was only part time, it sometimes felt like a full time job given the workload and project deadlines! 10 weeks is a short time to learn all the topics advertised and the program achieved that by:
1. Pre-work Assignment
2. Daily in-class "whiteboard" problems
3. Weekly CodeWars problems
4. Several technical assessments
5. Weekly homework/projects
Although I cannot yet rate the job assistance part, I am confident I can combine my newly acquired skills to find new employment. The project portfolio you build over the duration of the course is crucial to that and a good way for prospective employers to view your work. Several sessions are also arranged with career coaches and program alumni during the 10-week period.
Overall, the program was challenging, the projects were rewarding and the people were all friendly and helpful.
Some recommendations/disclaimers I have are:
1) Offer more options (i.e., courses) to those outside the Central Time Zone or at least offer an asynchronous format. The course went beyond the normal 3 hour class time on several occasions.
2) Cater towards engineers and those with a more scientific background; offer a course devoted entirely to data science, data analytics, numerical methods, machine learning. There will certainly be a demand.

The curriculum, materials, and choice of technologies covered in class, paired with hands-on projects and additional resources, all together make Coding Temple an excellent choice for anyone interested in starting a career in tech. Python is a versatile, glue-like language with a tremendous community behind it, and because it's so human-readable, it's a great stack, to begin coding with.
Joel was an excellent instructor, incredibly patient, and knowledgeable. On the other hand, my classmates added tremendous value to the class, and I felt guided throughout the entire process.
I'm very happy to have chosen Coding Temple and look forward to staying active within the ecosystem to help other Coding Templer's along the way!

A Great 10 Weeks
After graduating from Coding Temple's 10-week online Python course this October, I can say it's definitely worth your time for anyone who's on the fence. The curriculum covers many different and very useful tools in a very short amount of time. You can go from knowing nothing at all to building out full web applications if you put in the time and effort. It will amaze you how much material you'll be able to take in and how competent you'll feel at the end of the 10 week period.

You can go from knowing nothing at all to building out full web applications if you put in the time and effort. It will amaze you how much material you'll be able to take in and how competent you'll feel at the end of the 10 week period. One thing I appreciated was the small class sizes. My class consisted of 9 students and 1 very thorough instructor. Every class is recorded and available for you even after graduation. This will be a massively helpful tool for you moving forward. There will ALWAYS be time for you to ask questions and get help with things that may be giving you trouble. There are also TA's and other instructors who will be available to help you outside of class hours, as well as career coaches who will help you with the soft skills (Interviewing, applying effectively) that will definitely be helpful during your job search once you're a post-grad. Make sure you have lots of time to dedicate to coding during the time you're enrolled. Following along as your instructor demonstrates is always helpful, but most of the learning happens outside the classroom! - John ThuetProject Manager • Graduate • Software Engineering Full-Stack | Full-Time Online • OnlineVerified by LinkedInSep 26, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

The best investment I have made in myself
A big concern for many when choosing a bootcamp is whether or not they think it will help them get a job when it's over. I chose Coding Temple because interview preparation and training was built into the curriculum. The entire team at Coding Temple went above and beyond to make sure I was ready to be a paid software engineer when it was over. This component alone is worth the investment because I received a job offer in less than two months during COVID.

Having very little knowledge of programming, it seemed daunting at first, but the teachers at Coding Temple are so knowledgeable, patient and willing to help you succeed. Ripal was incredibly helpful in sending supplemental information for any area that I was struggling with, which really helped me better grasp a lot of the material. The course curriculum was very well thought out, allowing students to learn in the most effective way in 10 weeks without being overwhelmed. In addition to the online course, homework is assigned to test your knowledge outside of class. Although the assignments were difficult, the hands on experience helped me practice what I had learned in class. Coding temple also helps you prepare for your job search by helping you build your resume, reviewing technical interview questions with you and bringing in recruiters from a wide range of companies.
Overall I had a great experience and I would definitely recommend signing up for this course to anyone who is interested in kick starting their coding career! - Michael WSoftware Engineer • Graduate • Full-Stack Data Science + Python • ChicagoVerified by LinkedInApr 23, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Great Way To Elevate Your Career or Start Something New
First things first, I attended the Part Time Online Coding Bootcamp at the Coding Temple in January. Overall I would highly recommend this course. It is not for the faint of heart and does take time that will need to be dedicated to succeed but if you do it will be well worth it.

Overall I would highly recommend this course. It is not for the faint of heart and does take time that will need to be dedicated to succeed but if you do it will be well worth it.
For me, programming has always been a passion. Starting with my first exposure to C++ in college. This passion grew over the years with me developing android application for the various companies I was with as well as arduino projects. Nothing high level just mainly tools to accomplish my various tasks and stuff for fun. Prior to becoming a developer I had a very successful career in systems engineering. Working with a wide variety of scanners, laser CNC machines, and robotics. So for me the thought of changing careers was that of a pursuit of happiness rather than a urgent need.
Now the choice of picking a bootcamp is not an easy choice. What I wanted was simply to do an in-person bootcamp (something the coding temple offers). However with my travel schedule I thought I was stuck with having to only consider bootcamps that were fully online. No hybrid (online/onsite) options. Then I found out about the Coding Temple. The Part Time Online Bootcamp that Coding Temple offers is something special. I was able to get the training in what ever state I was in at the moment and local training at the Chicago facility when I was home. I was even able to sit in on some of the lectures with the fulltime students. My instructor Derek was fantastic and really knew what he was talking about and the guys at the Chicago facility were always available and ready for any questions. As a massive bonus is the job placement, and the guys at the Temple really take that seriously. Now your experience may vary but I was able to lock up an offer prior to finishing the bootcamp in the middle of the pandemic in 2020.
In conclusion, this course was challenging and takes a lot of time after work but if you can push through it and really apply yourself the results are not only worth it but extremely rewarding as you work though the various projects.

Coding Temple was an exciting learning experience, comfortably paced, and worked as advertised!
I took Coding Temple's 10 week web development course in person in Boston, Fall 2019.
First and foremost, I should qualify my experience in that I had a math degree prior to taking this course. This is absolutely not a prerequisite for success, but relative to my peers and others' testimonies it is absolutely contributed to a softer learning curve and thus a less stressful, more enjoyable experience. All my classmates were also well educated, tech savvy, and had minimal (but some!) co...I took Coding Temple's 10 week web development course in person in Boston, Fall 2019.
First and foremost, I should qualify my experience in that I had a math degree prior to taking this course. This is absolutely not a prerequisite for success, but relative to my peers and others' testimonies it is absolutely contributed to a softer learning curve and thus a less stressful, more enjoyable experience. All my classmates were also well educated, tech savvy, and had minimal (but some!) coding experience prior to taking the course. None of us faltered much, but this is 100% because of those preexisting competencies. If you genuinely have no experience with logical problem solving, low computer literacy, etc. then you need to build more of a foundation before the course starts. In this case, I'd recommend reaching out early as Ripal has tons of excellent pre-course resources!
As for the course, the best part was the instructor. Everyone will agree here. Connor was excellent. It is however disappointing for all you prospective students that he now works as a developer. The curriculum was good. By default the weekend projects don't get reviewed or graded very rigorously, but they're good about having someone available with whom to review your work more thoroughly.
Bootcamps are a very new and rapidly growing industry, and this can be felt. Coding Temple has a b it of disorganization and growing pains, but overall is highly professional. For example, course hours are shorter than advertised and there isn't much infrastructure in place to handle unexpected events, such as the instructor getting sick. That said, they work hard to serve their students and do not give off shameless money-seeking vibes like a lot of bootcamps. Their transparency in terms of graduation career placement statistics and post-grad resources are a great testament to this.
Finally, and this is the real reason anyone would be considering this avenue and reading this: career placement. They work. Now I am a very lucky example in that I was hired in an immediate offer at my first interview, but with a few months of persistence almost everyone lands a desirable job. The biggest way they helped me was fluffing my resume. Basically skirting the line of how much low-key lying is acceptable in the corporate world. At the end of the day your success is in your own hands, but both in terms of concrete resources and less tangible emotional support, Coding Temple makes a very strong offering. - Maksim KhatamovSoftware Developer • Graduate • ChicagoVerified by LinkedInDec 18, 2019Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

I enjoyed working, doing research and competing with fellow classmates as well as working and sharing what we know. It felt very great actually learning not just for the test but for actual experience. The professor was amazing. He had a lot of experience and was not an easy going on you. He would not give you answers. He would make you work for it until you did as much research you can and as much work as you can. He taught us the real world programming and not easy stuff that college offers. Would recommend this anytime.

One of things that stuck out to me was throughout the course one of the instructors said "Once you're apart of Coding Temple, you're apart of Coding Temple for life". And it's crazy how true that statement is because they're always checking up on you if you need anything, if you want to learn anything else, if you have any questions on your current situation or even if you just want to hang out with them. Throughout the course a numerous amount of alumni would always come in just to hang out, learn, and do work there so it really is a family environment where they all genuinely want the best for you and for everyone else. They made learning the different aspects a priority and were always available post class hours if you had any questions on the material. All the resources anyone would ever need is provided by them and they always look out for you. Greatest decision I ever made.

Overall, definitely recommended! The small class sizes are a huge plus as well.
