Super opportunity for a career change
Read more Read less of Lisa's review
The formation fits all the profils, from beginners to those who already have some notions in programmation.
I was an administrative assistant so I wasn't used to the tech field. With COVID, I truly wanted a career change. I was on Linkedin and I came across the profil of a guy who attented La Capsule's formation. He seemed really happy and currently was a dev fullstack, it really motivated me.
I'm very happy with my choice. I learned what I needed to do an internship and be fully operational. The classes are great, the teachers too ;) It's a good formation if you want a career change ! -
Gabriel
I can work on my own thanks to the program
I've met beautiful people and I've learned a lot during those 10 weeks, I was able to develop an entire product in such a short time I was surprised, i've learned a lot about myself and my abilities.
With programmation, I find what I loved, and thanks to the notions we saw at La Capsule, I have what I need to work on my own projects and as a freelance.
It's the best choice I've made. -
Robin
Best program !
Read more Read less of Robin's review
The training was above everything I expected ! I wanted to learn how to code and maybe attend another training just after to be truly ready to work, but my formation at La Capsule was enough !
The program is complete, totally adapted to the professional world requirements (knowing Javascript, react...) and in addition, they taught us how to work in a real group of dev. I can tell you feel completely ready at the end !
After the 10 weeks, I felt confident enough to go directly for an internship rather than another training, and I took the right decision because I'm so happy right now as a dev.
Thanks La Capsule, you have the best program ! -
Fanny
Good follow up !

I found the accompanying before and after the program truly satisfying. I came at La Capsule because I appreciated my first interaction with the team, and my first impression was the right one ;)
Except the teaching method (which is really good by the way) I enjoyed the fact there was a follow-up after the formation. They organize workshops, questionnaires, or masterclass, and the team is still available for us months after the program. I know every schools or formations don't care that much, and it's a nice feeling to know they care about us.
It's a truly human team with an interesting training, all I have to say is go for it ! -
Sarah
A super learning method
Read more Read less of Sarah's review
Ariane (the pedagogical platform) is really a great tool, I enjoyed a lot learning with La Capsule's method.
I prefer to work in group than alone, so all the projects we had to do altogether are really useful to learn how to collaborate with other devs.
There is also the MVP that is truly the outcome of everything we've learned, it's the moment we reinvest all the knowledge the teachers taught us during 10 weeks.
I found the formation really complete and efficient, I loved it ! -
Corentin
Useful for all
Read more Read less of Corentin's review
10 intensive weeks, but 10 pretty useful weeks which change your professional life entirely.
I do believe a training like the one at La Capsule can be useful for everyone, whether you want a career change or just improve your skills. I saw a true before and after for me.
I attented the program because I wasn't confident in my skills : I saw I started to be left behind at work because I couldn't catch up with the younger generation. I felt so much better after the training. We studied a lot of new tools, current technologies used in modern companies, and I feel like I filled the gap between me and the new generation.
Intensive and efficient, that's how I can sum up my formation ! -
Simon
More than I expected !
A huge thanks to the team and the training, I've spent a wonderful time and I've learned all I needed to develop my own project.
The tools and technologies we learn there are modern and really used, you can code an entire app from the front to the back in only 10 weeks, it's so impressive.
An amazing experience for me and my project ! -
Eloïse
I loved the method
Read more Read less of Eloïse's review
The way the classes are organized is well thought-out, we learn a tons of things and I think in operational jobs like in the tech field, it's really important to know how to do things. The project-based method was awesome, it's what I expected.
The team gives us access to a lot of resources, it's nice of them to give us a life access to their platform, I can review the notions I need whenever I want to.
La Capsule created an efficient method to learn how to dev in a short amount of time, taught by pretty good teachers, I strongly recommend ! -
Valentine
A pretty good training !

I think I could never have obtain the level I have today without La Capsule, the best choice !
I was curious this world cause my sister is a dev. I saw her being so happy with what she was doing, and she motivated me to do the same. I've learned feminine profils were hightly requested and appreciated in the tech world, so I tought about a career change. I tried to learn with my sister and on internet, but I wasn't serious enough. My sister told me about coding bootcamps to learn in a structured environnment, and advised me to learn JavaScript if I really wanted to work in this field.
If done seriously, La Capsule is a true springboard : I was trained and ready for work real quick, and that's all I wanted ! -
Inès
Great discovery !
Read more Read less of Inès's review
I discovered a creative and stimulating world, I enjoyed so much my experience there, thanks to the team and my batch !
Code was a huge discovery for me, I had some much fun during those 10 weeks, and of course I've learned a lot ;) In my daily life, at my work, I still use what I've seen during the program, I can see I did something useful that has improved my daily life. The lessons were pretty good, taught by a great teacher, so it was just perfect.
I strongly recommend to everyone who's interested in a programmation formation to go to La Capsule ! -
Anna
I'm a dev now ;)
Read more Read less of Anna's review
Programming seemed unatteinable for me because I tought a girl from the fashion industry who wants to learn how to code was a cliché, but I was so wrong !
In my batch, we were several girls and some of them did the Paris code program, a city program which helps girls to attend coding formation. I found it amazing and it shows the tech world is opened up to women ! Knowing those kind of initiatives exist gave me the fire to succeed and help other women.
I enjoyed the moments spent there, the program is top and taught us well. I'm a dev know, so it works ! I can only encourage everyone, and especially women, to attend the program ! -
Kamel
Only good things to say !

I do believe the fullstack formation is the best way to have a successful career change.
They gave us the tools needed to work and be operational at the end, really impressive in 10 weeks ! During my internship, I felt at ease, nothing was missing and I used a lot of what I saw during my training, I saw how useful it was. I fully understood the importance of the MVP once I was working, it's a pretty good exercice to prepare the students to the professional environnment.
I only have good things to say about the program, thanks to the team ! -
Antoine
Good project !
Read more Read less of Antoine's review
10 weeks to learn how to code is a good goal and I think it's mission accomplished for me. I see a real change, and I know if I stayed alone I would never succeed.
I tried to learn by myself, but I think if you really want to understand JavaScript or notions such as React, a true formation is needed. I'm satisfied cause thanks to La Capsule I had a structure and a real follow up.
I just wanted to improve my skills, to be better for my team at work. I understood the importance to understand how they work. It's smoother now, we save a lot of time.
This bootcamp is truly a good initiative. -
Pauline
Worth it !
Read more Read less of Pauline's review
I only had good feedback from recruiters about my career change choice, and some of them already knew La Capsule and were reassured I attented this formation in particular.
The tools and technologies we study there are really useful in a professional context, the recruiters feel better when they know you learn how to use JavaScript, Node.js, react... I spent a good time there, I've learned so much things I still use today in my daily professional life.
The formation gave a huge boost to my CV, it's 100% worth it -
Lola
Loved it
I've blossomed during the training, I discovered what I liked and had a clearer vision of what I wanted to do in life.
The team backed me up during my progress and my job reflexion, they are not just teachers they also give you good feedback. I appreciated the workshops a lot, we are trained for dev interviews and how to a cv that fits the tech world. It's just so useful.
In conclusion, I loved it ! -
Adel
Huge bravo !
Read more Read less of Adel's review
A huge bravo to the formation which keeps its promesses and turns us into fully operational dev after the 10 weeks. I found an internship just after I passed my diploma, I never felt loss at my new job as a dev junior, it's impressive.
It's just amazing to learn a new "profession" in just 10 weeks. Of course you're still gonna learn during your professional experience, but still I don't know a lot of schools which makes you ready in such a short time. Just great ! -
Julien
I progressed a lot
Read more Read less of Julien's review
I've met beautiful people during my formation, and I matched so well with the teaching method, it helped me a lot.
I worked in the culture field after my studies at the Ecole du Louvres. But after the COVID, it was really hard to work in this sector. So I went for a career change in the digital/tech sector.
I did my research about the different bootcamps, and La Capsule seemed to be the one which was preparing the best the profesionnal world. And Javascript being targeted by the recruiters, I decided to learn this language.
I enjoyed my experience so much, and I saw how much I progressed during my MVP. In 10 weeks, I was able to produce a full app, and today I'm still working on it to commercialize it. -
Hugo Castarede
I loved my experience
Read more Read less of Hugo Castarede's review
I was attracted by the code universe when I started coding on excel. I discovered code can be meticulous but also very creative.
I didn't ask myself 3000 questions about the formation. I called some dev, and one of them attended La Capsule. He told me Javascript was the most used language on the market and that it was the kind of skills I needed for a career change.
It came along at just the right time. My life goals had changed, I wanted to leave Paris and work from home. And the dev world has an important remote culture. The job market is flourishing, there are a lot of opportunities, so a career change wasn't too risky.
Once you start the program, you improve quickly. Before the formation, you have to do a short training just to be sure you understand the programmation basics. I was fully committed and did it correctly, and when you did it correctly, you can see it's really useful.
Obviously the teaching method is great, because being able to create an entire app in 10 weeks shows the learning process is successful and concrete.
I feel ready for what's next, I didn't have too many difficulties during the program and I don't see it would change now. I'm feeling good ! -
Camille
Great experience
Read more Read less of Camille's review
It's a complete formation from the start and even after the 10 weeks. We feel fully ready for what's next ;)
I came to La Capsule because I wanted to improve my technical skills. But I've learned so much. I felt ready to become a dev if I wanted to at the end, and what I learned is so useful to manage my dev team today !
The prep work allows us to be prepared before the real training, if you take it seriously it's gonna be so useful for your beginning. And the workshops after the program like the masterclass are a great idea, you can continue to study.
Just a super experience in general ! -
Maxence
Super team
Read more Read less of Maxence's review
My teammates from my batch and I, we loved working on the MVP and we're still working on it today. We are still in touch with La Capsule's team and they encourage us a lot on our project, by giving us feedback and some tips.
More than just the teaching aspects, I enjoyed the fact we are backed up : they are quick to answer on the phone, to give us the answers we need. And even after the formation, they follow us on our project, take some news, they care about us even after the 10 weeks.
It's a beautiful experience which's still in progress, thanks a lot ! -
Ludovic
So useful !
Read more Read less of Ludovic's review
It's a successful career change for me ! It really trained me efficiently, I saw it during my internship.
To start with, I give a huge bonus point to the method : it's exactly how we should learn of to program, by doing ! Of course you need some theory, but if you want to be a dev, you need to practice. The MVP at the end allows us to mobilize all the notions we saw during the training, and that's what turn you into a fully operational dev.
Today I'm a dev, I've been hired at the end of my internship, and everyday, I have the occasion to use what I've learned during my time at La Capsule. It's just super useful ! -
Maurine
Great if you want to be autonomous !
Read more Read less of Maurine's review
I don't have anything to say, except that I've spent a pretty good time with the team, and if I had to do it again, i'll do it again !
I saw myself improving like my friends, it's impressive the way we become autonomous, and you can see it right from the first week. As long as you remember you have a lot of work and you have to stay focus, everything's gonna be fine !
The team is attentive and takes its time even after the formation, and I appreciated this seriousness and their engagement. I recommend ! -
Martin
Good for the cv
Read more Read less of Martin's review
The fact we receive an official diploma at the end of the formation is huge advantage, and to the recruiters' eyes, this kind of training is really appreciated and valued.
It was a good decision to come to La Capsule. First of all, it turned me into a junior dev in 10 weeks and I can see I've learned a lot of new skills that I trully master. And the second reason is maybe because when I talked with recruiters, they told me they appreciated different profils (career change, additional formations..) a lot because it shows motivation and curiosity.
Really, if your CV need a boost, I can only advise you to attend this formation ! -
Léna
Very operational !
Read more Read less of Léna's review
The formation was really useful and I still used what I saw during those weeks today. It gave the keys to become an autonomous dev.
I was seduced during the interview which went pretty well, the team reassured me on the rhythm and the amount of work we would have. Once I started, it's intense but you kind of get caught up in the game and those 10 weeks pass fast !
The last 2 weeks where we work on our own project are very operational and were essential for my "success". It gave me a lot more confidence in my abilities and I strenghtened my skills.
A really good time ! -
Axel
I've learned a lot !

All I have to say is a big thanks, I've learned a lot during those 10 weeks, even more than I imagined. I had the career change I needed. Now I'm doing something I like, I learn new things everyday, and my colleagues are amazing.
Antoine is great, I owe him a lot because he was super patient with me. He gave me the feedbacks I needed so I can improve. And even when I started looking for job opportunities, he was always there, and I do believe I passed my technical tests thanks his advices.
If you're looking for a team who cares about you and your ambitions, you know where you should go now -
Céline
Very impressed
Read more Read less of Céline's review
I was very impressed by the formation's accessibility. I was a bit worried because I didn't know a lot of things about new technologies, but I have to say the program is completely understandable, even for the beginners.
I'm an history teacher, so I was far away from the code. But I realized it wasn't what I wanted. I wished more flexibility and creativity, and I started looking towards new technologies. I thought being a dev was a perfect compromise : you can be freelance and adjust your agenda as you want, or be a dev for a startup or a bigger company, and touched to different fields without having to readjust all your competencies each time.
When I choosed my formation, I focused most of my attention on the program and the teaching method, teacher's old reflex.. I was seduced by the project based learning method, and the program description was complete and it reassured me a lot. When I was in class for the first time, I immediately understood I was gonna be fine.

What I wanted

A great experience that I don't regret, Sebastien is a good teacher and I learned a lot thanks to him.
What I loved the most is the fact not everything is granted : you received all the help you need, but we are encouraged to learn by yourself, to go deeper !
I enjoyed the MVP a LOT : I've made a super MVP I'm really proud of, it was super useful during my job interviews, a true added value to your CV. You have to work, it's game and you have to play by the rules, but it's worth it !
I'm super satisfied, so thanks a lot ! -
Jade
Huge boost
Read more Read less of Jade's review
I've got the skills I needed to optimize my app and develop new features on it, and I strongly believe without the formation, I wouldn't have been able to do all of that.
I liked everything : the method that taught us how to be autonomous by working directly on different projects, the lessons that are easy to understand, even for someone who's not from the tech world, and of course my colleagues who cheered me up during those 10 weeks.
I'm still in touch with La Capsule's team, and when my app is fully developped, I will not hesitate to hire La Capsule's alumnis because I know what they are capable of !
It gave a huge boost to my app, I think it was the best idea I ever had. -
Juliette
Top !
Read more Read less of Juliette's review
The mix between the different methods is really efficient : we “study” in the morning and we practice in the afternoon on different projects. During those times, we are autonomous but we can ask for the TA’s help, and I do believe it’s the best way to become operational quickly.
In addition, all the tools we have at our disposal are really useful and help us during the learning process : the live codes are great to understand how the code is builded, the TAs are always available, and I’ve found the office hours helpful to review difficult notions.
I was data project manager before La Capsule, but I felt I was missing the technical part behind the data, I had a marketing point of view and I wanted more. I also have a lot of ideas for different entrepreneurial projects, and knowing how to code myself seems to be the best way to fully master your product. I did some research about programming languages, and Javascript seemed to be the most recommended one. Knowing you can code the back end and front end with just one language with JS, I was quickly convinced.
I went for it, and I was pleasantly surprised to see how many different financial help exists to help you. The bootcamp format answered my 2 biggest criterias : it had to be quick and I wanted to learn a lot. I wasn’t disappointed.
I easily found an internship at Accenture as a dev consultant, and thanks to this skills acquisition, I feel ready for what’s next. -
Emmanuel Kontlzer
I strongly recommended

A La Capsule Alumni strongly recommended me to attend this formation, and I listened to him. Today, I’m the one who’s recommending this program ;)
I had a great feeling with the team, the admission process convinced me and helped me for my choice. After a redundancy scheme, I had the choice to start looking for another accountant job, or looking for something new. The scheme gave us the possibility to attend a formation, and I went for it. At my old job, I used to be with the tech team and I was attracted by what they were doing. That’s why I wanted to be in the tech area.
It was a beautiful experience humanly speaking, I’m still in contact with the entire team. We had real support. I never felt lost, even if it was brand new for me.
In the end, you’re able to code an entire app or website, it’s kind of impressive. My internship went well, I’m fully operational, I can only recommend the training ! -
Augustin Marchand
Best batch !
Read more Read less of Augustin Marchand's review
My batch was great and I enjoyed being there everyday to code with my teammates despite the rhythm, it was a nice surprise.
I spent a lot of time comparing the different programs. I took it seriously because I wanted a real career change where I was directly operational without spending too much time studying something new. I asked the people I knew in the IT sector, and they told me JavaScript was super appreciated by recruiters on the current job market. I started the admission process? and the team being nice and quick to answer, I enrolled for the fullstack.
I was super excited to start, and wasn’t disappointed. The rhythm was intensive, but that’s what I asked for. The teaching method fits all the profils, and I appreciated this “accessible to everyone” kind of dimension, you have a lot of different profiles in one batch and it gives a true richness to the formation.
The week's projects are truly a good point, it gives the notions a thread and a concrete dimension.
I’ve had a lot of good moments, and now it’s on me ! -

Fully satisfied

I really liked La Capsule and its teaching method.
What convinced me was how quick they are to answer all our questions. They were super reactive and had time for us, a really dedicated team. The process is smooth, no headaches, it was promising.
I already coded a bit on Excel and I loved it. Nothing extravagant, but it was enough to make me want to go deeper. I was in the middle of a career change anyway, I might as well do something I liked and started to discover.
To focus the program on intensity and practice is the best way to succeed if you want to be ready to work at the end of those 10 week : the method is great, it's a complete training where we are fully committed and not just spectators.
I'm a dev now and didn't have to wait after my formation. It turned me into a dev as planned, so all I can say is thank you ! -
Rémy Hellequin
I reached my goal
Read more Read less of Rémy Hellequin's review
I was surprised to see that the program fits all the profils. They have a true accompanying capacity, whether there are more skilled profils or true newbies. Everything works well and it fits the rythm and the intensity I wanted.
I didn’t consider myself a beginner, I already had some experience in the tech area because I worked for a solutions publisher. So instead of just being project manager, I wanted to be on the other side and learn Node.js, React… Ideally, I want to launch my own project, and I want to code it by myself.
I wasn’t disappointed : it was short and intensive, and it was what made me like it even more. The group spirit gave us a lot of motivation and it helped you go through those 10 weeks. The MVP is really interesting and allows (for those who have an entrepreneurial project) to start working on it and to receive feedback.
I reached my goal so I couldn’t be happier. -
Cassandra
Big thanks !

Going through the syllabus, the program wins me over real quick. I think that thanks to the syllabus we have a clear vision of what's gonna happen during those 10 weeks and it's easy to project yourself.
During my interview with the team, I was put at ease real so easily. My exchange with the team was great, they answered all my questions, even the financial ones which reassure me a lot.
I don't have a lot to say, except that it was a super experience : the teacher, the TAs, the method, my batch... I love everything !
A big thanks to the team ! -
Jean-Charles
A changing experience
Read more Read less of Jean-Charles's review
What I remember from the moments I spent at La Capsule are the fact that we were all helping each other and the teachers’ kindness. They were awesome, and I wanted to thank Antoine for the time he gave us.
I especially enjoyed the buddy system : you’re not always in your comfort zone, you learn to program with everyone among the batch and not just always the same person. You’re polyvalent and it’s useful for your future professional life as a dev. Ariane, the courses platform, is well constructed, which is really important when you know you’re going to spend most of your time on it. And we have a life-time access to Ariane, in other words, a full time access to all the resources we need.
I worked in the audio field, and for the last 5 years I used to code a bit for the team, nothing serious, but I liked it a lot. So I decided to change my career and to choose a popular language to learn at the same time, so I went for Javascript.
I still code on the app my teammate and I have developed for the MVP to improve it and have the most finished product possible. The people I’ve met changed my experience, thanks a lot. -
Julie
I'll do it again ;)

I lived a great experienced which checked all the boxes.
I chose the bootcamp format because I wanted to learn quicly, efficiently, and with an intensive rythm. My wish was to learn a lot in a short amount of time, so the format was just perfect. My second big criteria to choose my formation was the kind of language taught (here it was Javascript) because I've seen a lot of job offers which were asking for a good level in Javascript, node.js and so on. La Capsule being the only bootcamp to my knowledge with a Javascript program, I didn't hesitate.
I loved the teaching method and to work on my MVP with all the teachers' feedbacks, I gave us another vision to our work and we had the possibility to improve all the features with their advices.
To sum up, It was a beautiful experience. -
Evan
Intensive and efficient
Read more Read less of Evan's review
When I've discovered the "bootcamp" format, I wasn't really sure what to expect. I was a bit scared not to be able to follow the rythm, but I was convinced it was a once in a lifetime opportunity so I went for it. And it was awesome !
Yes, it's intensive, but you can see yourself improving for real. You're doing it for something, and with the help you receive from the teachers but also the other students, it's so much easier than I thought. I'm not saying it was easy - because it was not ! - but I took pleasure doing it.
JavaScript is really the language to master right now on the job market : I had so much more opportunities after the training, and I had a new job in like 3 weeks after I passed my exam at La Capsule. I can't be more satisfied. Thanks guys ! -
Thibault Herreman
The good choice
Read more Read less of Thibault Herreman's review
The Capsule experience was great, intellectually, technically and humanly speaking.I was challenged and I improved my skills a lot, and at the same time I’ve learned JavaScript. Humanly speaking, it was amazing : we were around 20 and we all liked each other, we cheered each other up.
Before the training, I was a CSS/HTML integrator, but there were really few job opportunities, and to change my situation I had to improve my skills by knowing how to code with a wanted language on the job market. That’s why I chose Javascript.I talked a bit about my project with someone who told me to go to a coding bootcamp to learn quickly and efficiently. I compared the different technologies taught by different bootcamps, but the most interesting was La Capsule.
It was a super experience, the teachers were always available and nice, and I enjoyed working in a team. Especially during the MVP, you’re really put into a real work situation where you have to code an entire project with different dev.
A good moment where we all shared a lot ! -
Anthony
Good memories and useful
Read more Read less of Anthony's review
I wanted to learn how to code and how to code well, no matter how intensive the program was. I chose La Capsule and It was the good idea.
In my team, I was the marketing guy who didn't really understand the problemes's technicity of his dev friends, so I was always left behind during their conversation. I was tired of the situation so I tried to learn by myself online. I was lost with all the different notions, and I have to admit I didn't have neither the discipline nor the pedagogical help to succeed.
So instead of losing my time and having something half-done, I decided to take the time I needed to do it properly. I searched for a formation which was able to turn me into a dev in a short amount of time, so I went to La Capsule, and it was awesome.
Not only I understand my dev team, but I code with them now. We went into concrete notions real quick, and I've made a lot of friends and contacts within my batch. I still talk to the teaching team and I only have good memories ! -
Emma
It helped me a lot

The program showed me we can be creative with code. Possibilities with programming skills and tech opportunities are infinite.
I enjoyed the classes a lot, it was intensive, but the lessons always were easy to undersand and well thought out. My improvement was impressive, you know the training is working. Our teacher and TA were awesome, always available but they know when we need to learn to do it by ourselves.
Group projects and buddies were so cool, I've found my new co-workers. I think it's learning the work with a group is a must-have when you're a dev because you are going to be in a lot of situations where you have to work with different dev you don't know in your professionnal life.
I'm a creative person, I'm a designer and by doing this program, I was just thinking about having a better CV. But I realized you can create a lot with code in a very different way.
I loved it !
