The best learning experience
Overall, the teachers were very kind, friendly and helpful every time I went to them to ask questions, and the curriculum is very well designed and it enabled me to learn effectively and efficiently. They would happily take questions even if it is outside of the curriculum we're learning. This is the very difference between self-learning, the presence of a helping hand. -

Amazing Experience

Before joining Le Wagon I was carrying out Master’s thesis research into the effects of stigma on implicit self-esteem. That was when I realised my future lies in data, so I enrolled in several short courses online to improve my abilities. Although it seemed like I learnt a lot from these courses there were many times that I felt lost and without anyone to turn to. There was clearly something missing. That’s why I decided to join the data science boot camp at Le Wagon. Before joining the boot camp, I tried to make the best use of my time by completing all the pre-work suggested to us. I would 100% recommend this to anyone starting out on their boot camp journey as it eased me into the subject and meant there were no surprises when I started.
Once I joined the boot camp, I loved that I finally had an environment in which I could share confusions and victories or ask questions when I felt lost. It was amazing to work on the materials at my own pace and to know I could refer back to them when needed while getting feedback as I progressed.
I also appreciated the wonderful experience of being able to work as a team to produce a final project that I think none of us would have been able to achieve alone. In the end, I was truly proud of this project which was an online web service for autistic uses to understand more about emotions in an intuitive way. Coming from a rather tech. light background, I was unsure about getting into data science. However, now that I made the move I cannot emphasise enough how pleased I am and how much I would recommend Le Wagon to anyone interested in pivoting into data science. -

My experience at Le Wagon has been an extremely rewarding one. The training is very dense, but the exercises are very well structured and the teaching material used is really complete and easy to use. The professors (and the team of teaching assistants) are there to answer our questions on all the steps and the buddying system really allows us to exchange easily, in a very stimulating atmosphere!
I recommend it 100%! -

Great bootcamp!

Hi, I'm Marie, 28 years old from Paris. Right after high school, I started to work fulltime multiple jobs as I needed to care for my family, find a condo etc. Studies were not an option back then. I ended up working in sales in a group that handles order distribution of medical equipment to professionals. When I finally was in a place to plan my future, I started to look for an efficient way to learn to code (my childhood dream). I spent days and night practicing on free courses on many platforms, but that wasn't enough. A friend of mine told me about Le Wagon so I looked it up and loved the idea of a bootcamp with a very strong and active community, and I thought "why not me?". Attending Le Wagon bootcamp was the best idea possible for me, I went from "hello world" to a full functionning website in a couple weeks and learned a lot about teamwork. It's really challenging and forces you to adapt your mindset to various situations. Finally, working every day with different buddies was beyond awesome and the teachers' team were extra supportive and comforting in hard times. Best experience ever, 14/10 would recommend to a friend. -

One of the greatest experience of my life

Hello. My name is Nicolas and I attended Le Wagon Montréal Full-Stack Web Dev bootcamp in January 2021 (Batch #528).
While having a lot of difficulties finding a job in my original field (Logistics) because of the Covid-19 pandemic, I decided to learn new competencies.
As I've always been intrigued by programming and by the internet, I started looking for web programming courses and found Le Wagon Montréal.
After a month of asking questions through email conversations, I finally decided to jump into this new adventure. During 9 (very) intense weeks of learning, I encountered amazing people and discovered things unknown to me before. Le Wagon Montréal's staff is very attentive to your well-being. The teachers are patient, considerate, and will always be there to help you and answer your questions. I did not just learn programming. I did not just sit in the morning in front of my computer listening to the teachers. The program is perfectly shaped for students to be challenged and have fun at the same time.
In only 9 weeks, I am now able to build a website from scratch, with basic (but still very important) features. Just remember that 9 weeks before the end of the bootcamp, I knew nothing !
Jumping into Le Wagon Montréal's bootcamp was definitely one of the best experience of my life. -

I spent the last 10 years working as a Support guy, from big companies to start-ups, and I always felt I was missing something crucial. When some friends of mine told me about Le Wagon, it instantly became one of my goal. I waited for the right timing in my career to jump in this adventure... And now I know I should have done this a long time ago.
Le Wagon is a fantastic moment of your life where you’re surrounded with positive and supportive people who are teaching you how to code. During these 9 weeks, I never felt left alone and was able to go above and beyond the goals I thought I could achieve : I would have loved to stay for another 9 weeks and keep training.
Le Wagon was much more that I thought and I miss a lot being there, working with my teammates. I strongly recommend this incredible journey if you’re looking for your next learning adventure. -

I graduated from Le Wagon Paris in March 2021.Le Wagon is one of the best experiences of my life, I was lost in my school career and I wanted to reorient myself and after finding out about this bootcamp I decided to try it.
The courses are intense but all the teachers are attentive and really present to help us with every problem we encounter. I had no coding knowledge at the beginning of the course and I graduated just by working and listening to all the tips from the team for progress.
The learning methods and the program are impeccable, I recommend to all people interested in coding. -

Amazing Data bootcamp

I am working as a Digital Transformation consulant specialized in Artificial Intelligence & Data at IBM France since September 2018. Before that, I studied at ESCP which is a French Business school, thus I had no technical skills before taking my job, so I was more focus on the Business side of AI when you implement it on a projet for example. I decided to do Le Wagon, because I felt that those technical skills could help me a lot in my job, and my future career.
It did, because I feel more legitimate to work in AI & Data field now that I know what’s going on « under the hood », I can have deeper conversations with my clients about the technical side of the project, and my missions are more attractive.
Also, I met amazing people, we had a lot of fun and I learnt new things everyday during 9 weeks ! -

I had the chance to learn how to code via Le Wagon and it was the best decision that I’ve made. The program is intense we have to be ready for these 9 full-time weeks, but so interesting and well organised. I’ve learnt so much through the program than I could have on my own.
The teachers are all amazing because they were students before us and helped a lot when we had difficulties. They also gave us really good advices and tips and I was particularly touched by their kindness.
Being everyday in pairs with a different « buddy » was also really helpful, we struggled together and we don’t feel alone.
Joining Le Wagon is a big step for my career change, the journey was just amazing and I’m proud to be a part of the community now!
Thank you Le Wagon! -

Before joining Le Wagon I was working as a Private Chef, I’d worked in Fine-Dining restaurants, worked in farming, among others. I also have a degree in Mech Eng, but I’d always been lost about what I enjoyed doing. Then covid hit and I started to teach myself coding, using some online courses and got the bug for it. It was something that really took hold and I wanted to learn more in a structured manner. I came across coding bootcamps in my research for how to take this skill further and that’s when I discovered Le Wagon. After finding out more about it , I decided to take the leap and go for it!
The bootcamp truly has been a career changing moment, it was fast-paced and really intense but that’s what I was looking for. In 9 short weeks I went from having practically no coding skills, to being able to develop fully working and in production apps. There are two main group projects, one being a clone along the lines of AirBnB and the final project being a two week sprint, where we designed, built, tested and launched the app. The staff, TA’s and in particular all my fellow batch mates are so open and welcoming and have a great amount of knowledge and skill and even though it was all remote it was a fun and enjoyable experience.
Post bootcamp, coding really has taken hold and I’m eager to keep learning and developing my skills and working on some cool side-projects. I can’t wait to start the job search now and for my career to really begin.
10/10 would highly recommend it to anyone who’s interested in coding and wants a structured and intense learning experience. -

Before the bootcamp, I spent half my career as a planner in the retail sector. I was stressed, not enjoying my job and knowing that if I move to another company in a similar role it would eventually be the same cycle over again. I needed a change! Having been interested in coding for many years but afraid to try because I had these ideas in my head that coding is only for the super smart and it’s too late, I’m too darn old to start learning to code. Till that day I just said stuff it, just do it! That was 6 months ago in October 2020. On the 12th of March 2021 I completed a 9-week coding bootcamp with Le wagon London. I presented my teams final project and graduated from Le wagon. I’m not going to lie, it was intense but so rewarding. From the lectures to the Le Wagon staff, they have made this journey so worth it! Le wagon also provide an additional week, called careers which is used to help you update your CV, prepare you for technical interviews and more which has aided me on my job search. I believe Le wagon has given me the tools for my journey in becoming a software developer. Thank you again. -

I decided to follow the 9-weeks intensive program at Le Wagon Paris after 20 years of professional experience (10 years in strategic consulting + 10 years developing my own company). I’m now launching a start-up in digital services, and I wanted to become knowledgeable enough to be able to code by myself, to recruit and manage the best team, to understand the critical issues, and to get in touch with a smart network of professionals. I strongly recommend Le Wagon for all these aspects. Their teaching methodology and ambition are solid and efficient. Very smart people and program !

With only a few lines of code behind me, I arrived at the Wagon eager to learn. For 9 weeks, I was immersed in the code with my colleagues from batch 551. Very well accompanied by the whole team every day, the Wagon gave me all the tools and a solid base to finally become developer. A very intense experience for which I am immensely grateful to the Wagon for giving me the opportunity. I highly recommend it! -

I heard about Le Wagon during a career change meet-up in early 2020 from an ex-wagonner. She gave a very good feedback of her bootcamp experience, and she showed a great passion and satisfaction to change her career and become a web developer. I felt very encouraged and decided to give a try, and it is really one of my best decision ever. I totally enjoyed my learning experience of the bootcamp, and all the best practices and exercises they gave to gain knowledges and skills quickly. The pedagogy adapt well our level (but we have to seriously finish the preparation works, as the bootcamp is rather intensive). It gives us the most important tips, concepts, and methods to become a developer, and it shows us a path to continue learning once the bootcamp is finished. -

Good Experience
I started attending Le Wagon barely knowing anything about code — but for the fact it would be useful to my career path. I was positively impressed by Le Wagon's very efficient means of teaching, but perhaps more important is how Le Wagon makes one feel at home. Needless to say, those nine weeks were one hell of a ride. -

After 10+ years as a Marketing professional in the gaming industry, I joined Le Wagon Data Science bootcamp to pivot my career towards a data-crunching role. The whole bootcamp experience was as intense and even more rewarding as I expected, seeing my final project unfold before my eyes made me realize the amount of progress and the breadth of knowledge that I accumulated over these super-fast-paced 9 weeks.
I would definitely recommend this bootcamp to anyone willing to put the effort into learning Data Science, from Python and SQL to Machine Learning, Deep Learning and Cloud Computing. -

I worked for 5 years on the development of accessories collections for luxury and fashion brands. I loved my role as a project manager and my varied assignments around product and strategic marketing.
Over the years, I became more and more interested in tech products such as Luko, Alan, Vinted… Products that drastically change the daily lives of users and I wanted to be a part of it.
I decided to do le Wagon full stack bootcamp to understand the technique behind the product, to learn more about the tech culture and to surpass myself by achieving something I felted incapable of.
I am grateful for this adventure which has given me a lot on both technical and human aspects. I keep in memory a strong training program and beautiful meetings with people from all horizons. -

I did the 9-week Web Development intensive bootcamp OCT2020 - DEZ2020, and honestly, the experience surpassed any of my expectations.- From the first moment you are taken in by the amazing Milene, who guides you through the registration process and keeps you engaged during the initial curriculum required before the start of the live lessons.
- Once you begin, you are taken through every subject with mastery by the teachers and TAs(many of which are Le Wagon alumni and can directly relate to your struggles and difficulties).
- The learning platform is complete, easy to use, contains everything from every lesson(plus a library with TON of extra material), and you keep the access after your bootcamp is completed!
- The community is active, and engaged. If you post a question on any slack channel, you will receive an answer, and generally people are very open to connecting and helping out. You will also keep your access to slack after the bootcamp and be able to continue to connect with the community however you see fit, from technical issues to job hunting, design and career tips.
- After bootcamp there is career week to help you get going with the first steps in your journey, they even set up a few events to help connect you with some of their partners.

After 2 years as an Outbound Sales in a french start-up founded by former Le Wagon Student), I decided to join Le Wagon Bootcamp to learn how to code and begin my reconversion as Product Manager. These 9 weeks allowed me to understand developers and how a website is built. At the moment, I am working at Click&Boat as Product Manager. Even if the language used is different, these courses help me a lot and I wouldn't be as comfortable in my job without this bootcamp. -

I used to be an English teacher and an Economical Engineering student before Le wagon. When I decided to learn how to program I searched for bootcamps across Brazil. Le Wagon was the one that stood out because of its content and the chance to practice like a real programmer! I never felt so challenged and accomplished. It was the best choice I made. Now I started working for a StartUp in its early days and I am a Teacher/Teacher Assistant on a few days at Le Wagon. -

Prior to Le Wagon I had been working for 4 years in Communications and Marketing, and spent one year with an NGO dedicated to social and professional inclusion in Indonesia. Back in France I knew I wanted to change career but didn’t know where to start. After some research I signed up for the web development course with Le Wagon. Spoiler alert: best decision ever made.
What struck me is how fast you learn and progress. It clearly is the perfect match between technical skills, general knowledge, and community. More than coding skills, you acquire a problem-solving mindset. It is really intense for sure, but thanks to the pedagogy and hands-on approach you can directly apply what you learn.
During the bootcamp live talks are organized with industry professionals so you can discover potential career opportunities and start to build your network. There are also many hiring partners who know what to expect from Le Wagon alumni.
Now I feel ready to work as a web developer and use my newly acquired skills for social and environmental projects! -

I was apart of the 501 Batch at Le Wagon in Paris. Unfortunately mid-way through our batch, we got re-confined due to Covid-19, which meant we had to follow the program on Zoom. The Wagon was very organized and available to make the transition as smooth as possible. I never felt abandoned or on my own, and still felt like I was getting the most out of the program as possible. My teachers were there every step of the way, and there was still a big sense of community. Overall, regardless of the covid regulations, I really enjoyed my experience with The Wagon. I feel as though I really learned everything necessary to become a full stack web dev, and am very confident in my coding skills thanks to them. I really recommend the BootCamp to anyone who is interested in Learning to code ! The Wagon is really there to support their students, before, during, and after the Boot Camp. -

The Wagon is a caring and studious environment to not only learn to code but to learn to learn. The challenges are daily to always go a little further in the concepts of programming while consolidating as the knowledge is acquired. Especially since I find it very rewarding to continue to progress and transmit what I have learned myself as a Teacher Assistant and to have the feeling of being part of an extremely active community in France and internationally. -

I attended the Web Development boot-camp before I attended the Data Science boot-camp and let me say that the Data Science boot-camp exceeded my expectations. Even though the boot-camp was remote, the staff and teachers were very attentive and had a great attitude throughout. The material was very impressive and in depth. In fact, I joined the boot-camp mainly to demystify Deep Learning , and I was really happy with the depth we covered the topic. I am now pursuing a Master's Degree in computer so that I can further my knowledge in Neural Networks. I recommend the boot-camp to anyone who wants to challenge themselves and learn what the buzz of Machine Learning is all about! -

Best Decision I Made

Le Wagon was exactly the push I needed to learn web development and discover what I’m capable of. I saw how much you can learn in a short time, given an optimal environment and structure. One of the best things about the curriculum was how it all made sense at the end. I enjoyed each module but sometimes found myself curious how it all will come together. I must say I wasn’t disappointed.
I loved doing the challenges and practicing the concepts we learned that day hands-on. I appreciated the effort that was clearly made creating each one of them, and it was a crucial part of the bootcamp I believe. I spent the first week on campus and kept doing the rest of the bootcamp remotely. Covid surprised us all and forced us to be capable of doing more online. Both experiences were amazing, I loved having a structured day with lessons and challenges. It was amazing to see how far we all came at the end of the bootcamp.
The project weeks were both quite challenging and rewarding at the same time. I was the team leader which was a responsibility I happily took and enjoyed very much. Balancing responsibilities and tasks through the team became tiresome sometimes but the end result was very rewarding and I think those weeks were great to see how it is to work as a team.
It was great to connect with many professionals, all in different roles in tech during the Career Week. Listening to their recommendations and their experiences was definitely inspiring. We also learned how to create an appealing CV for ourselves
Two weeks after the bootcamp I started working with two Le Wagon alumni from two different batches and different countries on a volunteer project. I was referred to them by another alumni who watched our demos. It just shows what an amazing network Le Wagon provides during and after graduation. I also realise that working together is quite easy because despite doing the bootcamp in different cities and times, we all somehow speak the same language and understand each other well. I also started a full-time job as a Junior Full-Stack Developer in in a startup less than three months after graduating Le Wagon and am again thankful for the opportunities provided to me by Le Wagon.
I love meeting new people and talking to them very much. Le Wagon’s global alumni is great to do exactly that. It is very easy to get in touch with other alumni all around the world and everyone is very helpful and nice. I also miss creating tickets and talking to a teacher whenever I faced problems and the buddy system. I really enjoyed the community vibe Le Wagon provided for us. -

I did Le Wagon Web Development (9 weeks, full time) Bootcamp in 2020. I’m a business graduate, but I always wanted to learn coding, and I tried on my own for a year. It was really difficult since I didn’t really know where to start. I had attended Le Wagon workshops in the past and I have read the amazing reviews online. After doing a lot of research, I finally decided to attend the bootcamp during the pandemic. This was definitely one of the best decisions of my life.
Before starting, you need to do a full prep-work, it includes a course about: Ruby, HTML, CSS, JavaScript and some web preparations. The bootcamp is definitely super intense and immersive. You have to be fully committed. There’s a lecture in the morning, and then you work on challenge all day with an assigned buddy. It makes it really straight-forward, and you start coding on the very first day. At the end of the 9 weeks, you will be able to build a marketplace from scratch, it seems impossible but with Le Wagon resources, it is.
The teachers and the full team are amazing, they all did the bootcamp, so they know exactly what you need. They are all passionate and truly dedicated to Le Wagon’s mission. They are always available if you need anything and they always go beyond your need.
The program is also fully structured, you have access to so many resources, you won’t need anything else. Everything is there. You also have access to all the alumni’s, it’s a dedicated community that is also available, even after you graduate.
Before joining Le Wagon, I used to read the reviews and I thought maybe they were a little bit exaggerated, but they are not. I truly recommend Le Wagon to anyone wanting to develop new skills, change careers or be able to build a product on their own. -

I decided to get myself into programming and someone I know strongly recommended me to do the bootcamp at Le Wagon. Before starting the bootcamp there is a prep work including intro to coding, videos explaining important concepts and short quizzes related to what you've learned. The goal of doing this prep work is to see if you liked it and you're ready to enroll to classes. So, I did the bootcamp during the pandemic, thinking it would make things harder, but it was the opposite. The staff adapted really quickly to those changes and we had all the tools needed. The journey itself was intensive, but worth it. A lot of new concepts to learn everyday and challenges to complete. The teachers and TAs were very helpful when I had questions. The bootcamp also made me learn how to search for my answers on the Internet from trusted sources, because knowing how to search for correct answers is the key of being a good developer. Overall, I was very satisfied with my experience at Le Wagon. The final project was really fun. -

I did Le Wagon Web Development (9 weeks, full time) Bootcamp in 2020. Prior to Le Wagon, I was at a fast-growing software company that got acquired by a large corporate tech company. I knew it was a great opportunity, but I was in sales and I wanted to improve my technical skills.
I left to pursue my dream, and then the Global Pandemic hit! I had many opportunities to pursue both employment and learning. After much research, I signed up for Le Wagon! There are many learning vehicles out there, but I did choose Le Wagon........why?
They are an experienced team, they have an expansive curriculum, and are on top of all the newest technologies pertinent to the market today. But.....that is not why, it was because of the people, the detail to attention and care individually and the way they teach and stretch and support you to be your best. Their techniques and support coupled with care and investment in who you are - the soft skills that matter to build confidence and become a part of their family of excellence
I learned so much of the fundamentals of coding and in a team-based way/culture that challenged and rewarded me. I now have many opportunities, and a vibrant network and feel fueled for the next step in my career!
Thank you Le Wagon! -

Amazing Boot-Camp

My Le Wagon experience was amazing! I did the course in Stockholm between my second and final year of university for a Business Bachelor.
During my studies, I realized that only studying business does not fulfill my interests and abilities. I joined the boot-camp to get insights into coding and was surprised that it went far beyond that. I discovered my passion for developing, especially during the first weeks, solving backend challenges. After the Le Wagon, I got a working student job where I could work 50% of my working time on business and 50% on developer tasks. Now I am planning on doing a Master's degree in Business Analytics, further intensifying my programming skills and learning how to apply them in a business context. -

When starting the course, I wasn't really sure what to expect from the course as I was new to the Data Science world. However, I was pleasantly surprised by the quality and clear logical progression of the curriculum.
Le Wagons preparation to have subject matter experts that were currently working in their field professionally as the course moved forward to give industry advice and insights while teaching each module really helped to lock in the relevance and application of what we were learning.
The whole Le Wagon team was keen, enthusiastic, driven and passionate about their subjects which in turn help to invigorate myself and I believe my fellow classmates. The really shone through more during the final project stages when they were just as interested and invested in making sure the projects worked to their full potential as much as the students working on the projects themselves.
After the course Le Wagon provides comprehensive advice on preparing your resume, LinkedIn, GitHub and any other relevant professional portfolio sites/resources. Along side this their connections in the hiring market in Tokyo proved extremely useful allowing me to find a great data science job through their recommendations within 2 and a half weeks!
Overall, I highly recommend Le Wagon, you can get a huge amount out of this course as long as you're willing to put the effort in to maximise the potential of this well constructed course. -

Coming from a finance background I took the leap to add coding to my skillsets. After careful research I ended up enrolling in the Le Wagon remote bootcamp. I could not be more satisfied with the journey. The resources, structure and incredible teachers and staff are top notch. The access and support even in a remote setting were seemless. When we completed our bootcamp and projects, I couldn't believe the person that completed the course was the same as the one starting it. Highly recommend ! -

I had the best experience at Le Wagon Dubai! During a tough period in my life, I wanted to get back in the real world by learning web development on my free time I was so impressed by the methodology and how effectively I learnt from zero to building apps in 2 months. Charlotte is an amazing driver, always making sure everyone is happy and included in the batch. Rayan is an excellent teacher, best in his field and super patient, I learnt a lot of applicable knowledge from him! Tarig is amazingly charismatic and will make any complicated concept super easy and visual to understand. If you're looking for the best, fastest and most efficient way to learn web dev, this is the best place in Dubai!!! Cheers and thank you so much to Le Wagon Dubai team <3 -

Best decision so far

In 2019, I was lost. I didn't like my job anymore, I didn't earn enough money, and I didn't see any prospects anymore. I was a social science editor, which was satisfying for my love of books but not for my work environment.
I decided to change my career to be able to work in any country. But I discovered much more! The Wagon brought me know-how, a community, a profession, career opportunities, and so much more!
I loved my first few weeks, learning the backend with Ruby, even if I sometimes felt like I was the only one who was enthusiastic about that part. It's hard, but it's worth it! Then the frontend, well, it was great. The last three weeks focus on projects: we did two incredible apps from scratch. It was a great experience to design and build these apps. The system helps us to progress and learn quickly. What I liked is the buddy system: you work with another student every day. It teaches you to work in a group, with very different people.
I found a job two months after finishing the Bootcamp: first a 3-month apprenticeship, and then I got hired on a permanent contract.
I recommend signing in LeWagon Bootcamp if you want to change your career quickly. Don't forget: it requires a lot of energy and willpower. -

Just a few months ago I was working as a cabin crew for Emirates Airlines in Dubai. Then COVID came and the company decided to make me and a some other colleagues redundant, and I thought I could use that “push” to change my career and my life, and I am glad I did took action on that feeling.
I signed up to Le Wagon Web Development Bootcamp in Stockholm, and I can say that is the best decision I took throughout all of 2020; it literally changed my life.I learned so much about coding and made so many good friends.
The part I loved that most was the sense of team spirit that was formed around the whole class AND the teachers. It was amazing how after only a few days we were all so comfortable with each other, always ready to help each other.
Also, the TA support was truly amazing every step of the way (big shout out to Yaniv Matalon), he was the most awesome teacher we had. Something else that I truly enjoyed was the daily meditation sessions towards the end of each day done by Eva, it really helped me recharge my mind after a full day of coding, so much so that I continued to do it after the bootcamp; or the live code at the end of every Friday while enjoying a nice cold beer, courtesy of Yves… that was super cool.
I just want to say a huge thank you to everyone that made it possible For this and so many other reasons I highly recommend Le Wagon if you are thinking of changing your life, it certainly did change mine. After all, I got a job as a junior developer 2 weeks after the bootcamp thanks to everything I learned with these guys. -

Best change of career

Prior to Le Wagon I had been studying Law and was getting ready to pursue that as a career. I had a sudden change of heart after some realizations and decided to pursue programming instead. The reviews for Le Wagon looked amazing and so that was where I decided to enroll in December 2020. I do not regret my decision at all! The staff were all incredibly helpful and knowledgeable and despite covid restrictions everything ran very smoothly. The whole program takes you right from a very beginner level right up to being ready to apply and start your career as a developer! The final project you do is great, it really encourages you to take control yourself while still having support when you truly get stuck. The project is also great as it gives you a real insight into what its like working as a developer and collaborating with your team. 10/10 would recommend kick starting your career with Le Wagon! -

Before Le Wagon I was a graduate engineer, looking to boost my skill set whilst searching for a job. I decided the Le wagon data science bootcamp would be a great way to do this and this proved to be one of the best decisions I’ve ever made! I couldn’t recommend the course enough, the staff/ teachers were incredible, curriculum expertly planned and the general environment inviting and warm. We were pushed to the limits of our abilities and put in a great position to start building our own projects, in my case using the latest tech in deep learning language processing to build an environmentally focused sentiment detection platform, something I couldn’t have dreamed of doing before the course began. -

From Sales to web development

I decided to learn to code after several years working in sales and business development. I chose le Wagon because of their applied methodology and their focus on teaching people without any prior coding knowledge as well as their well earned reputation within the industry.
I joined the first class of the Stockholm campus and during 9 weeks I immersed myself into the world of web development. Not only did I learn coding but also how to work in a team with profiles so different from mine. I am very happy to have had teachers from all over the world who had either completed the bootcamp themselves, or were long-time industry professionals. This was very encouraging for my future.
If you are thinking about joining a coding bootcamp know that it will be the best decision you will make. Being able to achieve so much in so little time and learn a whole new scope of hard skills is incredible. If you are on that decision cross-road, keep in mind that joining a bootcamp is not the easy road to take. Give it your full commitment, set the right expectations from the beginning and never give up. You won’t regret it.
