Have fun spending $10,000 so you can spend hours googling everything and learning everything on your own. The instructors are kind and helpful but that is pretty much it. I do not recommend the coding cohort to anyone who does not have previous experience in coding.- AnonymousGraduate • Fullstack Academy Software Engineering Immersive (Part-Time) • OnlineJun 01, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Great Instructors/Staff + Friendly Cohort
I chose to attend Fullstack Academy after much rigorous research on best web development bootcamps.
I opted for a part time program, joining live lectures & classroom sessions a few nights a week. This gave me time to earn income while studying as well do deeper research and study on topics.

I opted for a part time program, joining live lectures & classroom sessions a few nights a week. This gave me time to earn income while studying as well do deeper research and study on topics.
The program more or less has 3 parts:
1. Foundations: lessons for self study with exams every other week that required a certain score in order to make it to the next part of the program. This made sure that my cohortmates were at a similar level to me. Yet, this was the weakest part for me, I encountered slightly out of date data here. Specifically, much time was dedicated towards concepts like 'this' and Javascript closure that were more relevant a few years ago when React class components were the only option.
2. Remote classroom with daily lesson plan, leading into paired lab work. 3 hours per session, 3 times a week. Instructors and assistants were knowledgeable and went to GREAT lengths to help students. Finalized with a solo CRUD app that was graded - students of below a certain score were further assessed/spoken to. Lots of knowledge to consume.
3. Team projects. This is where the learning "on-the-job" feeling happens. This was my STRONGEST part of the bootcamp, simply because I grew the most here. Getting team experience is hard for self-study / if you dont do a bootcamp. Coding + weird bugs no one has encountered because your app is completely your own creation + interpersonal conflicts with the team + managing & tracking project goals, features, while balancing deadline. Teams were of 3-4 people, and you self-managed the project together, including handling when people couldn't get stuff done, or were AFK due to IRL reasons. You earn a lot of 'stories' you can tell during interviews. Instructors were mostly hands-off, and could be messaged or called into the virtual table during class time for help on bugs.
Job search is nothing guaranteed, but the cohort gets a career coach you can book 1-on-1s with basically whenever you want. With the tech market being what it is, sending in your resume and praying doesn't cut it. Networking & reaching out & following up & not falling into a pit of despair is on YOU to do. Post-grad Job search is what YOU make of it. - AnonymousGraduate • Fullstack Academy Data Analytics Bootcamp (Part-Time) • OnlineMay 11, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Fullstack Data Analytics
I absolutely loved Fullstack's Data Bootcamp. I took the part-time bootcamp and I was able to continue working while taking the class. I have a background in computer science and was still able to learn a lot and prepare a portfolio for a data analytics career.

I have a background in computer science and was still able to learn a lot and prepare a portfolio for a data analytics career. Tina Lowry was an amazing instructor who gave us additional practical and real-world experience outside of the assigned curriculum. She always made herself available to help outside of class for any additional help or questions. Kim Wood was an exceptional resource after the bootcamp, helping and advising how to job search. I felt prepared and ready for interviews with her help.
The only reason I would give the curriculum is 4/5 is because some of the information was a little out of date. Tina always made sure we were aware of the changes and went over the new ways. Tech changes quickly, and it is understandable but the curriculum should be updated to reflect the new information.
I highly recommend Fullstack for anyone serious about breaking into data analytics. - AnonymousGraduate • Fullstack Academy Software Engineering Immersive (Full-Time) • OnlineApr 25, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Waste of time
This bootcamp is no where near what it used to be. Instructors are unprofessional and incompetent. They lecture about how critical it is to put out good code that works but the instructors, who aren't even familiar with their own curriculum and course materials, send out broken links and buggy, broken, or outdated code. The lectures typically range from 45 mins to an hour of blubbering and being told to "google it" or "you don't need to know that" only to find out that we did really need...This bootcamp is no where near what it used to be.

The lectures typically range from 45 mins to an hour of blubbering and being told to "google it" or "you don't need to know that" only to find out that we did really need it and an extra 15-30 mins talking about the lead instructor's interests like legos, cartoons, and toys. Then their career services has the audacity to gatekeep job/professional lectures and force us to fill out forms every week to make sure we're doing the minimum requirement to stay engaged and continue being eligible for career services. Full-time program where you need to put in Full-time hours after hours to receive the same level of education as previous cohorts. Stay away if you really want to learn something. - AnonymousGraduate • New York CityApr 11, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Great fit for a motivated student
This program is great if you are a motivated student—everything you learn can be found for free or a nominal fee online, but attending a bootcamp like this is great if you need the guidance / structure to learn *AND* you have the follow through.

Si può fare di meglio
Corso nel complesso buono per chi parte da zero. Docente preparato, anche se si è speso troppo tempo su argomenti facili e troppo poco su quelli più difficili. Per quanto riguarda i tutor non sono stati molto utili e il career service invece è stato a dir poco vergognoso. Avevano promesso assistenza nella ricerca del lavoro,invece ti abbandonano a te stesso una volta finite le lezioni.

Intense way to hack into cybersecurity field.
So much information packed into a few months. It’s intense to the point on frustration but opened the door to a whole new world of cybersecurity. The content was relevant to current and future trends. Everything was online which was very convenient.

After graduating my hiring help went over my resume and gave me very simple recommendations. She missed or was late to many of our meetings and didn't seem to remember what we were talking about from past meetings. I don't expect her to memorize all her clients but some notes being taken down would have been nice. They advertised they had many companies that hire through fullStake as they know they put out good people. I've yet to see ANY company referenced as hiring or recommended from them.
As for the course itself you learn REACT, SQL, and Javascript as the main things you code in. Which you can build an app from front to back with that but most places I've seen hiring want you to know some object coding like C++ or JAVA which they don't introduce you to at all. As such all companies I've applied to don't think I have the qualifications for them. To my knowledge my whole cohort is having an extremely hard time finding at job. - AnonymousGraduate • Fullstack Academy Cybersecurity Analytics Bootcamp (Full-Time) • OnlineJan 25, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
