I studied the FullStack developer course, which included HTML, CSS, JS, React, and Node. In general, I am very pleased with the training organization; there are many really cool mentors. If you like to learn, have had highly qualified school teachers, and think of them fondly, you may feel the same way after GoIT. I had very qualified teachers; sometimes, it was not easy to pass assignments, and often the mentor would focus on those places where I felt that I had not fully understood something, even though everything seemed to be working properly. This approach encouraged me to go deeper into the material again. Access to learning materials was also well established. There were structured notes and videos that I can use even after the course is over. As a bonus, I also received a series of lessons that were not included in the course, such as TypeScript and React Native. In addition to the teachers, the group was assigned a manager who helped with organizational issues. So, in general, I am very satisfied, the training system is built with high quality and special thanks to the teachers, it is clear that they love their job and are pros.- Jordan BiehlSoftware Engineering Apprentice • Graduate • Fullstack Academy Software Engineering Immersive (Full-Time) • OnlineVerified by LinkedInApr 13, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Overall the bootcamp was a great experience. Started with css/html culminating in a Javascript based working e-commerce website utilizing industry specific skills such as react and restApi. There were several instructors, 5 at the start. Two were amazing and 1 left after a short while and never replaced.

Espero que te encuentres bien. Soy Alessandro y recientemente tomé un curso de Desarrollo Web en Coderhouse. Quería compartir mi experiencia contigo y animarte a que consideres tomar un curso en esta plataforma.
El equipo de Coderhouse es muy profesional y está dedicado a brindar la mejor experiencia de aprendizaje a sus estudiantes. Los instructores son muy conocedores y están disponibles para responder cualquier pregunta que tengas durante el curso.
Recientemente dejé un comentario positivo en la encuesta del curso y también quiero dejar un review en este enlace para compartir mi experiencia. Definitivamente recomendaría Coderhouse a cualquier persona que quiera aprender nuevas habilidades en tecnología.
La única sugerencia que tengo es que el equipo de soporte de Coder Ask podría mejorar su tiempo de respuesta ya que en algunas ocasiones puede tardar hasta 2 horas en responder. Sin embargo, esto no afectó mi experiencia en general con Coderhouse.
Gracias por tomarte el tiempo de leer mi mensaje y espero que tengas una experiencia positiva con Coderhouse como la que tuve yo.
Saludos cordiales,

You will need everything you learn in the course!
Well, that's all!
It seems like the marathon was only a couple of months ago, and now I'm doing an internship at an IT company. 2 days ago my group and I handed in our final project written in React and Node.js😮 We did it all by ourselves, both front and back.
It was incredible! Thank you, GoIT, for the great knowledge, tasks, and the interesting and cutting-edge program. I knew I was getting almost everything I needed right from the first few minutes of my internship.

It seems like the marathon was only a couple of months ago, and now I'm doing an internship at an IT company. 2 days ago my group and I handed in our final project written in React and Node.js😮 We did it all by ourselves, both front and back.
It was incredible! Thank you, GoIT, for the great knowledge, tasks, and the interesting and cutting-edge program. I knew I was getting almost everything I needed right from the first few minutes of my internship.
For any people out there with doubts — the program is exactly what you need and it doesn't matter how old you are! You will have homework, somethings will work out and go smoothly, other things won't. That being said, you will have a mentor who will help you, and a stream of people, approx. 200 people, in the homework channels, and you will always get help or explanations. One of your classmates will always respond to your call: 'Please help! I don't understand anything!' You'll have online classes, their recordings, and recordings from previous groups. The amount of information is massive, but the main thing is not to give up and to keep on moving forward. Even when it seems like you're facing an impossible struggle!
Goit is incredibly client-oriented: you will have deadlines for your homework, and if the topic is difficult and they see that most of the group is struggling, they can postpone the deadline. :) We experienced this a couple of times. And, of course, when the war broke out. We were given about 1.5 to 2 months to recover, and those who could not continue studying in these conditions were frozen without any losses until their situation improved. This also shows a very good side of the company.
These courses also give you a cool experience of teamwork. This is especially so when you are all such different people writing one project, dividing tasks, helping each other. It will definitely come in handy in the future :).
It was quite difficult for me. I've never been a tech guru or anything like that. However, I did it and I wish you the same success!
I recommend GoIT to everyone! ❤️ - Cindy CarrilloJr Full Stack Developer • Graduate • Fullstack Academy Software Engineering Immersive (Part-Time) • OnlineVerified by LinkedInMar 01, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

This bootcamp covered everything needed to succeed in an entry level web developer interview. The course definitely moves fast so you have to be on top of everything and you have to spend time outside of the bootcamp to study and complete work. There is plenty of support if you take advantage of the office hours! You also have to make sure you spend time outside of the bootcamp practicing technical interview questions (codewars/leetcode) to ensure you are ready for interviews. As long as you put in the time and effort, I believe you too can succeed with this bootcamp! - RobSecurity Analyst • Student • New York CityVerified by LinkedInJan 16, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Kim Wood is an extremely knowledgeable career coach and she helped me a ton when it came to my interview process. The instructors were extremely friendly and knowledgeable as well. A few things to consider if you're thinking about enrolling at Fullstack... Start studying for your Security+ ASAP and be prepared to study outside of class hours. My two goals when starting this course were to have Sec+ completed and a job lined up for when I graduated. Both of those goals have been accomplished, I actually got my job offer 3 days before graduation! I know most everyone who reads these reviews wants to know whether or not they will get a job and I'm confident to say that if I can do it, anyone can do it. The only downside I can think of with this bootcamp would be that my cohort was over 70 students which made it a bit tough to get 1 on 1 time with the instructors and to have your personal questions answered. However, there are mentors in the cohorts in which they provide outside class office hours that you can attend to ask any questions if you can spare any time outside the course itself. Lastly, start focusing on LinkedIn and building connections. This is how I found out, applied and got my job so I cannot stress enough how important LinkedIn is. Also, NO I did NOT have prior tech/cybersecurity experience before this bootcamp either. I started from scratch! - Camilla DevasiniGraduate • Fullstack Academy Software Engineering Immersive (Full-Time) • OnlineVerified by GitHubDec 22, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Great coding academy
I have attended the Full Stack Development course: I have had the opportunity not only to learn the basics (and more) of programming languages and technologies, but I have also experienced team work and Agile methodology along the whole journey, carrying on lots of projects. Furthermore, I have had an amazing person as tutor always available to guide me. This school has represented a valuable opportunity to growth both professionally and personally. I totally recommend It. - Jose T.Graduate • Fullstack Academy Cybersecurity Analytics Bootcamp (Part-Time) • OnlineVerified by LinkedInDec 18, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Not recommended
Nobody wants to hire anyone in my class and I'm not surprised.. This class was incredibly rushed and It seemed like the instructor had zero to negative energy when teaching. Nobody wants to hire a fresh cyber security apprentice with no real experience.. But these people make it seem like this "bootcamp" is the way to get to it. Anytime we had intricate questions we were met with the usual "if you want to learn It you have to spend time outside of class learning it" 👍

I would of left a decent review if I had paid 1/10 of what I did. But since I paid what I did.... I can attest this is 100% not worth it.

Changed My Life
Prior to becoming a student at Fullstack Academy I'll admit, I was a bit skeptical, but I gave it a shot and it changed my life. I came into Fullstack Academy with absolutely ZERO experience in cyber and tech in general. But that did not matter as the Bootcamp can take you from, as some would say, "Zero to Hero". To put your minds at ease for those contemplating attending the Bootcamp; no, I was not very tech savvy nor is there MATH involved.

To put your minds at ease for those contemplating attending the Bootcamp; no, I was not very tech savvy nor is there MATH involved. There, better? The instructors are awesome and VERY knowledgeable.There are also assistant instructors who are available whenever to help and assist you with any assignments and provide the clarity you may need. USE THEM, they were students prior to being assistants. They were in your shoes. Job assistance. What you're here for....When it comes to job assistance there is a Career Coach who is there to help with your resume, work on your elevator pitch, work on how to answer interview questions, and work on how to network with people via LinkedIn/Social Events. (Shout-out to Dezzi, she's awesome!) Fullstack Academy does offer an event where you have a chance to network with people who are already in the field and work for already established/start-up companies. The Bootcamp doesn't necessarily host a Job Fair where you meet recruiters, and you get hired on the spot. (Things may have changed since I graduated a year ago). Now, DO NOT LET THAT DISCOURAGE YOU. Fullstack Academy has a HUGE alumni network. You can find people who work for well-known companies and start-ups in various industries and connect with them to potentially refer you to a job posting, invite you to events, or direct you to the company/person that can help/hire you. From my experience, the people in the cyber community are extremely helpful and willing to help you. Put yourself out there, network, and smile. There is nothing to fear. Take the leap. You miss 100% of shots you don’t take. *!!LinkedIn is your best friend!!* - BiancaStudent • New York CityVerified by LinkedInSep 01, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Class was engaging and supportive; the instructors are paired well in terms of teaching style and my classmates were helpful and collaborative. The topics covered by this program are highly relevant in data analytics, and my presentation and speaking skills constantly improved. In my job search, I sought out additional support while interviewing, which was immensely helpful.
Areas of growth: the readings in the modules could use proofreading and fact-checking. The associated challenge questions also needed proofreading and the short-answer questions were usually a rewording of the reading material, and did not necessarily encourage critical thinking. Particularly with the SQL challenges, students were asked to write hypothetical SQL code pertaining to a non-existent database, making it difficult for students to check their work.
In response to student feedback, instructors did provide alternative challenges that were more engaging.
