Ironhack

It's incredible how IronHack delivers what they promise. When I started the Bootcamp I knew almost nothing about development. The course turned me into a confident Full-Stack Developer, with strong technical skills. After the course, 100% of my colleagues got hired. I can't recommend better this experience. The school space, the team, the events and of course all the knowledge I received made it worthwhile.

My time at Ironhack has been very fruitful, it has been a great time for learning, personal and professional growth. In addition, it has also been an opportunity for development through frustrations and forging new knowledge during those nine weeks in the Data Analytics bootcamp.

I'm loving the Data Analytics Bootcamp, the curriculum structure and the teacher's support are incredible. Specially labs and hackatons gave me the experience to face technical interviews. Machine Learning teachings are overall basic, but still, it is worthy to start!

The decision to bootcamp at Ironhack was one of the best I've ever done, I walked in knowing the basics about programming and even choosing between courses I was feeling lost because I didn't know where to actually start, and the Since the beginning my school gave support, the structure is great, the materials are super simple and easy to understand, the teachers are always online to support you, ask questions, send you feedback, give you tips and are always monitoring your evolution and learning. The school cares about how the classes are, always asking for the opinion of what we are enjoying or wanting to change, it has a career service that helps you know how the market works and what the market demands. A great experience, I had a great evolution compared to how I entered. I recommend the school to everyone.

I am currently attending the part-time web development bootcamp of Ironhack São Paulo and so far I am loving my experience. I have a background in Arts & Humanities and for me personally learning to code has been quite a challenging task. Nevertheless, I feel very happy to see how many new things I am learning in such a short time. I have received full support of my teacher and it is very nice to see that my unrelated background is not a barrier in this process. My efforts to make a change and willingness and interest in learning new things are the only things the matter!

Everyone says the bootcamp is intense, but just when you begin you notice how fast paced it actually is. I was first enrolled in the full-time program, but decided to switch to part-time in order to have more time to study and review the content of the classes. It was a very wise decision. If I could do anything differently, I would study a lot more before starting the bootcamp. By studying, I mean doing a LOT of exercises. You learn to code with practice and repetition.

However, if you don’t have six months to learn coding in the part-time program, I would highly recommend completing the preparation work REALLY well and re-do(many many times) exercises in more difficult topics. The prepwork format is extremely boring (a lot of text and the exercises aren’t interactive such as in websites like Freecodecamp and Codecademy) but the more you study and get familiar with basic concepts, the better you will follow the course afterwards.

Ironhack's Bootcamp is an experience completely unlike any other. Not only will you learn to program, you will develop your own ability to absorb information, and become more visible and active to the technology market.  Ironhack's curriculum, as well as lectures, group, and individual works, workshops, and other extra curriculum activities will contribute directly to both career and personal growth.  During the course weeks, you will have a chance to acknowledge your own learning limits, as well as overcome them.  If you are wondering whether or not to do the Bootcamp, know that I have locked up college, moved around and given myself a chance to live something like I had never lived before, only to attend this course.  And I will never regret the moments and insights that have been presented to me in recent months. This Bootcamp is a once in a lifetime opportunity, the beginning of a new path, and the accomplishment of everything you have lived and experienced till this point. Read less

Still not working as a developer, but by talking to people already working in such position I believe that the curriculum is good and up to date with tools used in the industry. Teacher for our class has been great. Very attentious and really doing his best to help us learn. He is the kind of person willing to go that extra mile to help students absorb all the content. Career support has been good and better than what I expected. We've had workshops with an experienced recruiter and with people in management positions in tech companies. School infrastructure is good and improving. Recently added a few automated vending machines with snacks and drinks. Read less

I am a chemical engineer of formation, I was discouraged with the area. Under the influence of her boyfriend and some friends, I decided to take the data analyst course at Ironhack. It was the best bet I made for my career, in 9 weeks I was qualified to work in the area. to my happiness a week after the end of the course was hired. I recommend the school to anyone who just like me wants to change their lives.

I'm currently on IronHack part time full stack web dev and so far it has been the best experience I could dream of. One of the best points so far it's the teacher that truly want you to learn and understand what he is saying. All the staff from IronHack are amazing and they have been giving a amazing support.

The course, the teachers, the assignments, the material, the workshops. Everything was amazing. I focused on changing areas and fulfilling myself professionally and I succeeded. All support and what you learn in the classroom and with classmates is a unique experience.

My experience at Iron Hack has been contributed to a full and realistic view of the Design and User Experience scenario, feeling prepared and engaged to begin a new career.

Our classroom teacher has the ability to bring relevant discussions into the ironhack framework that the school offers, becoming the classes into a rich and engaging discussion. 

The practical part of the projects works very well, we are encouraged to work in different pairs and groups every week, learning and sharing knowledge together, it is possible to feel the evolution of problem-solving and understanding over the weeks.
Positive aspects for the classroom assistants (T.A), always helpful in supporting tools, work development and discussions.

As an improvement, Ironhack needs to take care of its internal experience, communication flow, and student entry journey to its progress within the course, paying attention to campus details and infrastructure that may reflect on good or bad experiences.

I enrolled in the full-time UX/UI design program last fall (2018). My teacher and the Ironhack staff were friendly, helpful, and very open to listening and improving the lessons in any way possible. Unfortunately the TA I started the program with only held the position for a couple of weeks and then this spot was filled by a number of temporary replacements. This didn’t allow me to get very close to any of those people and it felt like a resource that I expected to have wasn’t really available that cohort. In the end, we turned to fellow classmates for supplemental help most of all and this teamwork really helped many of us. The course is very intense and incoming students should expect to be stressed out by the workload. A lot of information is packed into a few months, so it’s important to bookmark all of the important websites your teacher shows you and of course to take good notes! If you have past work experience that relates at all to the duties of a UX/UI designer or even if you just had a strong interest in parts of the process, this will come in handy! I’d always had an interest in art and had done some graphic design before. On the other hand, if you have zero relevant experience and were interested in completing this course, I would say to be patient and realistic about where your skills might be by graduation time. While I do think Ironhack can give you a boost and help you get started with your new career, I saw some classmates struggle with creating professional-looking visual designs- even by the end of the course.  So if you’re doing something difficult for the first time, don’t expect a miracle. That said… coding week was not great for me. Most of the other students had had at least a little bit of exposure to coding before the course, so they were able to keep up with the instructor. A few students (including me) had never had any exposure and we fell behind and could never catch up. I was repeatedly told that it was ok if I knew nothing about coding, but it felt like a little more understanding was necessary to understand the fast-talking teacher I had for coding week. Daniel Brito was my career coach while I was there and I really appreciated his support. He gave me a lot of awesome advice and helped me see things from the perspective of the employer. Although he was busy assisting lots of students, he did a good job of dividing up his time and giving me his full attention when it was my turn. In the end, I walked away with a portfolio that helped me get my current job, so it was worth it for me! Plus it’s nice to be part of the Ironhack network.

I learned all the process and tools to become a UX/UI Designer. The Bootcamp was a life-changing experience. Excellent methodology. I was able to build a portfolio with the projects developed during the course. I highly recommend Ironhack to anyone who is looking into an intensive course in UX/UI Design.

I decided to take the bootcamp because I wanted to drive my professional career into data analysis. This was not an easy decision as I trusted a lot in traditional education models but, god I regret nothing! I learned a lot and more. Of course you will not become an expert in these two months but you will be on an excellent track to become one. The bootcamp is not easy and demands your complete attention at the point you dream about the problems you couldn't resolve. At the end you learned a lot of things but most importantly you comprehend how to learn anything and not be fearful and start doing it. Overall this was a great experience not only speaking of the acquisition of knowledge, I also found great people and friends which made this journey lighter and taught me a lot.

Fue una de las mejores inversiones y experiencias educativas que he realizado. El bootcamp es intensivo y todos los días se ven temas diferentes, algunos más difíciles que otros, sin embargo, existe un gran compañerismo y una gran actitud por parte de los teacher assistant, lead teacher y de todo el equipo del Ironhack por mejorar la experiencia de los alumnos durante el curso.Recomiendo mucho el curso de Data Analytics para aquellas personas que quieran impulsar o cambiar de carrera a través del uso de los datos.

I had a great time at Ironhack Lisbon and would recommend the course. However, I think its important to note that this course is NOT suitable for everyone. It is very intensive and you WILL NOT BE ABLE TO WORK A JOB WHILE IN THIS COURSE FULL TIME. It doesn't matter how resourceful you were in college (I went to school full time and worked two jobs then), you WILL be in this classroom 12-16 hours a day. There is no way around it, unless you intend to come out of it without value. 

The staff is wonderful and they 100% go that extra mile to make sure you're learning and confident. The course isn't perfect of course, and they're still testing to see what works- but they'll listen to your feedback and adjust and the experience is one I'll never forget. I do think its worth the money, and I do feel confident that if I put in the effort, I will get a job in the field out of this. 

This course will be worth what you put into it. There are no grades, and if you just do the minumum assigned then good luck to you. If you're willing to put in extra hours, weekends, and your effort to learn and improve now that you have the resources and support around you, you will do great and come out of this transformed.

Doing the Web Development Bootcamp was the best decision I’ve ever made!  Working in a fintech Start Up, made me that curious about the world of coding, until the point that I decided to change my careers. The Bootcamp from Ironhack was the perfect compact solution for my new orientation. The 9 weeks were a very intense time, most of the days I’ve been at the bootcamp for 10-12 hours. Since I prepared quite well with the precourse I didn’t have any difficulties in following up on the course, which anyhow was very challenging! The teachers and the assistants are great people and the whole Ironhack team are very lovely and open hearted. Through the hiring fair, I met a company that I would have never imagined been working for and I actually was able to more than double my income with this new job. So yeah, people might think the whole promises that Ironhack make seem to easy for restructuring your professional life, but it simply is that way. However you should be 100% sure that you love coding, because if not the 9 weeks will be hell. I recommend every body who found a new passion in coding to make this decision. For me it was the best investment and it completely changed my life.
