Devmountain is a coding bootcamp that offers short, full-time in-person and online programs in Web Development, Software Quality Assurance (QA), Cybersecurity, and User Experience (UX) Design. The programs are designed to prepare students for entry-level positions in the tech industry. There is a Devmountain campus in Lehi, Utah for those who want to participate in-person. Devmountain's immersive courses require 40 hours of class per week, and 10-20 hours of work outside of the classroom. The part-time programs require 11 hours of class per week, and 10-20 hours of work outside of the classroom. The school was started in 2013 in Provo, Utah.
The Web Development track covers front-end and back-end engineering (JavaScript, HTML/CSS, AJAX, Axios, React, Bootstrap, Node.js, Express, and PostgreSQL). The User Experience course covers prototyping, visual/motion design, Figma, UX research, and wireframing. Devmountain instructors are all coding industry professionals and aim to bring real-world applications into the classroom.
Devmountain is beginner-friendly and no experience is necessary to apply. The first step to applying for Devmountain bootcamp is to check out the courses and start dates. Once the student has picked a course, they must submit an online application. Next, students speak with a member of the admissions team by phone to further discuss the program. After the phone call, students must complete a challenge to ensure the program is a good fit. Finally, the admissions team will notify students if they qualify for acceptance.
I graduated from DevMountain and found a web developer job within 3 weeks.
A little background- the last few years I've worked in a few customer service positions, because with a Bachelor's in Communication, what else could I do? I was naive in college, I thought getting any Bachelor's degree would land me a good paying job eventually- but it took me a few years to realize I wasn't going to make more than 30k a year.

A little background- the last few years I've worked in a few customer service positions, because with a Bachelor's in Communication, what else could I do? I was naive in college, I thought getting any Bachelor's degree would land me a good paying job eventually- but it took me a few years to realize I wasn't going to make more than 30k a year.
Twenty-sex years old and I still lived with my parents. I was depressed and I felt trapped. I wasn't skilled at anything that made me money. The things I loved were music, writing, vlogging- all fine things for hobbies. None of that was going to make me money.
I realized I needed a skill in order to make money, and I got to a point where I didn't care what it was. I met with several advisors from several different schools regarding a range of potential occupations: radiology, psychology, arboriculture, speech pathology, and so on. But every single potential occupation was going to take a number of years to complete, and I wasn't sure I wanted to do any of them.
I eventually stumbled onto FreeCodeCamp.com. I started it a little pessimistically- I was expecting to eventually not enjoy it. But that moment never happened. Within a couple of months, I was losing track of time trying to figure out a Javascript algorithm, and then I'd be working on it during my lunch break the next day at work.
I then found out about coding bootcamps, and I chose DevMountain based off a YouTuber's (TheEngineeredTruth) rave reviews of it. And the whole time, I was looking for a catch. How could 3 months be long enough? How can 10k cover everything including the housing? There has to be a catch.
There is none.
The course here is hard. Of course. But it's also fun for the right people. Make sure you love doing this. If you can make it to the Advanced Javascript Algorithms section of FreeCodeCamp.com and you're loving what you're doing- sign up for DevMountain.
If you're hesitant because it's only 3 months, so was I. If you're hesitant because of it's low cost, so was I. But does this program work? Refer to the first sentence of this post.
