I consider my professional life thus far to be scinded so: before le Wagon, and afterwards. Not like I'm ancient, or anything. The reason for this is, before attending this bootcamp, I thought that coding, like math, like engineering, like physics, was reserved to people who had studied it since middle school. I thought that people like me, with backgrounds in languages, translation, and literature couldn't possibly wrap their airy heads around such a complex, "science-minded" discipline.
That's a load of bull.
Le Wagon's bootcamp teaches you to code, plain and simple. No matter your background and your strengths, you'll be able to find something in their carefully crafted curriculum to pique your interest and light a fire under your brain. Their teaching team is dedicated, attentive, and a motivating example of how proficient alumni can become in a mere matter of months. Best of all, the community of alumni is unfailingly welcoming, bubbling with creativity and good will, and swells with every graduating class to include more members.
The overall course is fast-paced and intense but ultimately enormously rewarding. A change is as good as a rest, they say, and Le Wagon can empower you to make the change you seek, though I guarantee you won't get much rest!

Merci le Wagon !

Thank you Le Wagon! Why ? Being a student in digital marketing in Paris, I had the chance to integrate the batch#145 in parallel with my studies. I was looking for technical skills to complete my training rather focused on strategy. And I was not disappointed !
The training provides the technical foundation necessary to launch any Web application project. The pedagogy is very well thought out, all the concepts are exposed in a logical progression supported by an immediate practice. The speakers are all of a great level, the whole team is really cool and the intellectual challenge remains high from the beginning to the end.
In addition, an excellent atmosphere, camaraderie and peer support are present throughout the training, making working conditions even better. This experience was for me the opportunity to meet all types of profiles, all animated by the same spirit; the entrepreneurial spirit and to achieve great things.My trip to Le Wagon is a very positive point for my resume and allowed me to obtain a position as a digital project manager in a web marketing agency located in Paris. So yes, I confirm, thank you Le Wagon!

Le Wagon Paris - Batch 146

During few years before coming to Le Wagon, I tried to learn how to code with different mooc. It was very difficult to know how to start, which language to use, etc.. I decided to apply to Le Wagon to receive a formal training in web development to accelerate and shape my apprenticeship.From Bordeaux, I chose to come to Paris to immerse myself in the Parisian start-up ecosystem.
I want to say thank you to the whole Le Wagon Team in Parisfor supporting us during this nine intensive weeks. I did not think it was possible to acquire that much programming skills in two months. The "product" vision provided during the bootcamp is a massive strength for being comfortable with the ecosystem.
Moreover, every week we had meetings with entrepreneurs and it was nice to hear stories of enthusiast business owners.
Thank you again for this unforgettable experience. -

Perfect Experience (Paris batch#134)

After graduating from a Business school, and having worked as a Product Manager, I wanted to learn the basics of code to better collaborate with developers.
I joined Le Wagon, following the advice of 2 of my friends that had done the bootcamp and loved their experience, with very high expectations. I was not disappointed. I learned a ton, I also loved to be learning and the teaching staff helped me to give the best of myself.
The pedagogical approach "don't just learn to code, but learn to build products" enabled me to make sense of all the things I was learning, which is something I really liked. I also found that Le Wagon's formula was really efficient: many exercises, numerous teachers and teaching assistants who were always very accessible and a lot of mutual aid between students: it made me improve very fast. The tools and Le Wagon's teaching platform are very efficient to consolidate the learnings, revise a lesson, retrieve a tip from an exercise. And the community is crazy: tens of alumni came back to share their experience as startup founders or startup employees. And it is not even stopping at the end of the bootcamp…
In the end, I found a job as a Product Manager in an agency that develops mobile apps (with the help of Le Wagon's career team…!) in which I feel a thousand time more successful than in my previous experiences, because I have a better understanding of the issues and of the coding constraints as well as a better product-oriented approach - Therefore, thank you Le Wagon!

Joining Le Wagon bootcamp is like hopping in a train...
Read more Read less of Damien's review
Engineer with 4 years of experience in software development in the energy industry, I made the move to web development and freelancing in early 2018 as a drastic career and life change. So, after quitting my job, I started learning web technologies on my own but felt a little bit overwhelmed by the amount of information you can find about web development on the web: there is too much of it! I got lost among Stack Overflow posts, online courses and blogs, learning something new one day just to read few days later somewhere else that it's completely out of date and out of use. I started doubting my past choices and myself...
Then I met two of my good friends who work in the web industry and who told me: "Don't stress out! Do Le Wagon!" So I searched for Le Wagon on the web and discovered the 9-week full-stack program: I was really attracted by the curriculum and by the product-oriented philosophy of this bootcamp. I discussed with some of the staff members, watched a demo day online on YouTube and read a lot of reviews and comments online before applying to Le Wagon Paris bootcamp: let's get on board!
Before actually joining the program, there is some prep work to be done online. It allows you to gently discover the basic concepts which are going to be dealt with in depth during the 9 weeks. Moreover, it allows you to be sure you're able to work in front of a computer full of code lines during an entire day, which is the daily routine of a developer!
The curriculum is gradual and consistent with the bootcamp's goal which is to transform you into a full-stack web developer from scratch in 9 weeks. The bootcamp goes from 9 am to around 6 or 7 pm everyday, 5 days a week. Everyday starts with a lecture about 1 hour long presenting the concepts or features you're going to work on the same day. Then you spent the rest of the day working on assignments alongside one of your classmates who is your "buddy" for the day. Working side by side with your buddy helps you put what you want to code into words before actually coding it and debug your code when it's not doing what you want. If you're still stuck on something after asking your buddy for help, you can open up a ticket right from the bootcamp website and soon a teaching assistant will come and help you out.
In Le Wagon bootcamp, you will learn web development’s best practices and lean startup philosophy along with tech skills. You'll know how to code in Ruby on Rails, Postgresql, Javascript, HTML and CSS. You'll also know how to use Git and GitHub for versioning and collaboration, how to do a wire-frame and a mock-up using Figma, how to deploy and maintain your web app on Heroku and how to effectively search for help on the Internet. The project part of the bootcamp has a pretty clear goal: teach you how to code your minimal viable product (MVP) as a team of 3 or 4 collaborating in a sort of dev sprint or hackathon.
During one week, all teams have to build a marketplace web app, like Airbnb. As a product-oriented bootcamp, all students are invited in the middle of the bootcamp to do a basic pitch of ideas they would like to work on. Out of all the ideas presented a few are selected and ranked by order of preference by student votes. Those chosen ideas become final projects, that are assigned to groups of 4 or 3. During the last two weeks, the teams are working on their project. During all the project part, teacher assistants are available to guide and help students debug their code. The climax of the bootcamp is the final day, the demoday, where projects are presented and demonstrated during a meet-up and live on YouTube.
Alongside with everything written above, Le Wagon bootcamp has also side and optional activities like free meetups and talks with industry devs, yoga classes, and some free beers for the course-mates on friday nights! With Le Wagon bootcamp you'll also join a fast growing network and community gathered around web development, entrepreneurship, freelancing and teaching and driven by kindness and helpfulness. This community has reached almost 3,400 people on Slack as today (08/2018)!
Now let me tell you what Le Wagon bootcamp is NOT. It's not, in any way, a college or university course or program. You'll not be taught algorithm theory, network theory or any other fundamental course of computer science or electrical engineering degree. You will learn new skills every mornings and apply them every afternoons in typical use cases, as opposed to few classes per week for one course in typical college program schedule. Therefore, you will probably work more intensely than in most college courses but you will work only on one topic at a time. There is no final exam except the final project and the only rank, grade or diploma you'll have is the satisfaction you can get out of it.
To conclude, joining Le Wagon bootcamp is like hopping in a train: you know the final destination, the path is pretty clear and the train ride time too. Onboarded with you are people coming from all backgrounds and coding skill levels: some are still students, some have just quit their jobs, some are taking time off. During the train ride, you learn web development hard and soft skills from the experienced crew members, which are the teachers and teaching assistants, and the use of an impressive learning platform including efficient, motivational and entertaining challenges and tools. You meet your train buddies as everyday you have to seat and work with a new one. At the end, every passenger has his/her own experience of this common train ride but everyone arrived at destination on time. After the bootcamp, you get off the train and leave as a full-stack web developer able to build your own product, work in a tech company as a product manager or dev or work on your own as a freelancer. Finally you can contact anyone who took the train anytime reaching him/her on Slack to share valuable information including diverse events and job opportunities.
I highly recommend Le Wagon bootcamp for anyone willing to join an intense yet amazing journey to learn web development with Ruby on Rails!

Great Bootcamp

在我来到沃耕编程训练营之前我在一个拉斯维加斯的私立高中念11年级。当时我在编程方面有过唯一的经验来自于学校的AP Computer Science Principles，但是在那个课上我们没有太多的涉及到如何写代码，于是我出于兴趣，开始在网上自学javascript。虽然网络上有很多丰富的学习资源，但想要开始做自己脑海中想象的项目，我可能还有很大的差距。只有专业的老师以及学习环境才能使我在较短的时间内完成目标。同时，我希望在大学能够申请计算机专业，所以极其需要在这个夏天开始有效率地学习编程。出于这些目的，我在网上找到了沃耕。就像之前了解到的一样，沃耕是一个十分注重项目实际操作的一个编程训练营，有四个星期我们大大小小共做了3个项目。我觉得这一段学习之旅是非常有意义的，在过去的九个星期里我们不仅学到了最基础的代码逻辑，还学到了如何正确利用网络资源和各类文档，最重要的是，沃耕很注重教授如何在现实生活中与不同的人一起写程序，如何合作与沟通，这也是这个训练营的独特之处。如果说我的目标是通过这九个星期来初步涉入编程这一领域，而且能够独立或者合作完成一些项目，沃耕完全达到了我的预期。总体来说，无论从课程安排，导师角度，或者硬件设备及环境，这都是一次非常高效且很有收获的体验。

If you are looking for a meaningful, high quality place to develop your technical and personal skills and change your attitude forever, then Le Wagon Barcelona is the place for you!
As a psychologist, I develop and organise training programmes for managers to improve their skills for the future. I am used to quickly recognizing potential in people. And damn, I can tell you: highly talented people come together in Le Wagon! You will not only learn how to code, but also what it takes to bring your own ideas to life. You'll work hard with people from all over the world you've never seen before, and you'll see the amazing results you can achieve as a team in no time. I am really proud of my team, we have built a very cool quizz-based learning platform in 2 weeks - without any programming experience before!
You'll also be lucky enough to live in one of the most beautiful cities in the world and in the cosy, inspiring school with Gus and the other wonderful teachers. Only that they are less teachers than your partners who will support you to get the best out of yourself and get the maximum benefit from this program. The guys are just funny, helpful and wonderful people. Meetups are also organized on a regular basis, where you will meet interesting people - who may even make you a job offer!
The Bootcamp was intense, exhausting, fun, inspiring and grandiose. I will never forget this time and the things I have learned here - not only through coding, but also about what people are capable of when they are in the right community. Thank you, Le Wagon Barcelona! I look forward to seeing you again soon!

Le Wagon Barcelona - I had a blast!
Read more Read less of Niklas Kuegler's review
Lets start by saying thank you to the whole Le Wagon Team in Barcelona. My time during the bootcamp was fantastic. I signed up to Le Wagon because coding had always been something I was interested in, but never really got around to learn. I bought a book or two, two years ago trying to teach myself the basics of python but ended up quitting only after a couple of days because it was just to theoretical and boring to learn by myself. The approach of Le Wagon is great, working on small problem sets with changing partners was great fun. Not only did I improve my coding everyday during the 9 weeks of the camp, but I also met some great people. The first 2-3 weeks were quite tough because I didn’t really see the bigger picture back then, but that certainly changed during and after week 4. All of the small coding challenges that we solved during the start, not really seeing where they would once lead us, started to make sense and build a coherent and surprising picture of what we would actually get out of the bootcamp. I was astonished by what all of us achieved when we started the last 3 weeks of the program, working on our very own projects. We not only learned the basics of coding front- and backend but also received many enriching insights into building a startup in the tech sector. I’d say that my biggest take aways from the 9 weeks in Barcelona were that one can learn anything and solve anything if they know where to look and persevere while doing so. Coding will become more and more important in the future and anyone, in almost every sector will be confronted with new technologies and maybe even code itself. I honestly think that Le Wagon gives us a great opportunity to prepare ourselves for that future teaching us the fun, creative and cool skill of coding.

I honestly believe that coding is the language of the future; I think everything worth being a part of involves code. I come from a family of entrepreneurs who are constantly trying to push the envelope in business, finding new and uncontested market spaces to expand and grow their ideas into realities. In their ventures they have discovered that no matter how great an idea, it cannot be scalable or profitable without incorporating technology in some way or form.
I myself studied a 4 year Bachelor of Business Science Finance and Economics Degree at the University of Cape Town and am currently studying towards my CFA® Charter. Business and Finance are my passions, over the course of my degree I had the pleasure of watching the Finance Industry transform into what is now referred to as the Fin Tech (Financial Technology) Industry. Graduating from university I realized that no matter how great and relevant a degree I had, it meant nothing if I could not communicate in the industry I so desperately wanted to be in. My decision to join Le Wagon was made to help me fulfill my dreams of joining and better understanding the Fin Tech Industry, I walked away from Le Wagon with so much more. People are mistaken in thinking that joining a coding bootcamp means you are expected to become a developer. I left Le Wagon with a deep understanding of the inner workings of technology and coding languages, the bootcamp taught me a completely different way of thinking and learning. I now have all the background knowledge to understand the backend of the technological sector in the Fin Tech Industry, which is certain to aid me in future negotiations.
In addition to learning a selection of coding languages I was given the opportunity to be part of a community of exceptionally intelligent and talented individuals. I met and made good friends with people from all over the world, not only was I exposed to the world of technology but to a wealth of different cultures and personalities. I will forever look back on my time at Le Wagon as one of the best experiences of my life and I expect nothing less for those joining the Le Wagon community in the future.

Le Wagon, you rock!

That’s my story.
One year ago I woke up with a business idea. So as crazy as it is I quit my job and tried to figure out how to make it happen. I had no skills and no interest at all in IT but my business idea was a mobile application. Everyone told me to have a look at Le Wagon. I went at one of the meeting they’re doing here in Paris every Thursday and felt in love with this amazing place. Everyone is nice and makes you become as passionate as they are about coding.
I’m from the batch #134 and I learned how to code in 2 months, for real.
At the end of the program, in 3 months I built a MVP (which is a first version of my business idea) and everything started.
Le Wagon is not giving you wings, but it gives you the tools to build your own wings. So if you have a business idea like me, do not pay 30K€+ and let someone else to build this for you, do it yourself. For 4 reasons : It’s way cheaper, you’ll understand your own product, you’ll be freaking proud of yourself and you’ll bring a super valuable product into your own company. Have a look, you’ll see by yourself : www.big-family.fr
Thanks Le Wagon, you rock ! -

Amazing Experience

I have always been interested in technology, but with a background in design I thought that maybe it wasn't for me, however after completing the 9 week bootcamp wit Le Wagon I was proven wrong. It was an incredible, eye opening, challenging and rewarding experience. I realised that there is so much opportunity to be creative in coding and to create a working fully functioning app from scratch was amazing. The bootcamp also teaches to you to think in a different way, and pushes you beyond your comfort zone, but truly teaches you how to learn and keep learning. The teachers, the staff and the whole experience was beyond what I imagined.

Amazing experience in Buenos Aires!!!!

I started my studies in advertising and graphic design in 2009, doing many courses outside my University to expand my skills in different areas that I consider, at the time, useful for my job and profesional development. Through the years, I start to realize that technology was becoming, really fast, a way of consuming products or services, in EVERY single area and industry. No matter what you need, there is an app or a web to solve your problem; and if it doesn't exist: YOU HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU, so DEVELOP IT!
Through my years working as a graphic designer freelance, clients were always asking for basic things that nowadays, every company needs: newsletters and a web - just to start. And my first problem was that I wasn't able to take my design into the web. I think and create the sketches from the design perspective, but I was depending on developers to actually code the design and in many occasions, I would found out, that my ideas were really difficult to develop. Not to mention, that I have to depend on their schedule and budget.
When I asume the world is spinning around tech development, I decided to enrole in Le Wagon Bootcamp in Buenos Aires. Even though I had a lot of expectations, they were by far exceeded in the most positive way! I had the opportunity to practice my english, to know a lot of people around the world and know different cultures. It was surprisingly easy to overcome the intensity of two months, of non stop learning and coding, with the excellent group of people who shared this amazing experience with me! The teachers were super patient and positive, especially in the last two weeks where we struggle the time pressure to solve development issues... They were extraordinary good leaders that trust in our skills and were always there for us!
Le Wagon community is really amazing and supportive! :) -
Gabriele Branco
Amazing experience in Amsterdam

I learned how to code in Le Wagon: after 9 weeks of hard work, I’m capable to start a web application from scratch and I never learned so much in so little time. But what really amazes me is how I was able to do it: I learned through teamwork -- not only by attending classes and completing daily challenges but doing so with help from and helping people with different skills and background. I thought I’d be developing mostly hard skills, but I added soft skills to my abilities and now I feel ready to lead and teach.
Thanks to the people I met in Amsterdam, I’m currently TAing in Le Wagon Sao Paulo and preparing to be a teacher assistant in Rio de Janeiro, thrilled by seeing other students’ projects and helping them to make beautiful products. Le Wagon gives not only the tools to be a fullstack developer, they also teach how to spread this knowledge creating a great community that executes ideas all around the world -- and I couldn’t be more proud of being a part of it.

LW Lisbon Student Batch #148 review

As young graduate from a french business school and after several experiences within financial fields, I felt a strong attraction towards the digital world and entrepreneurship. However, I realized that I would not go far without any basic knowledge in coding and digital skills.
After great 9 very (very!) intensive weeks of learning how to code with Le Wagon in Lisbon, I gained much more than what I expected! Before this experience, I had no clue about anything in the coding area...
From a practical point of view, I am amazingly surprised by the level of understanding I have reached over such a short time, not only about pure coding, but also about the overall coding environment, from UX to web hosting. Le Wagon‘s program is very well built with a gradual rise in difficulty and a strong follow-up from the teaching team, that will fit to everybody, no matter their level.
Attending this coding bootcamp was also a great opportunity for me to meet and work with very interesting and smart people coming from different areas and making the whole experience even more rewarding.
I can only recommend this training and can assure you that you will get more than what you expect :)

Le Wagon Barcelona Inspiring Coding Experience
Read more Read less of illyshelly's review
During and after my graduation I worked at financial related jobs. Because it was not my piece of cake I decided to go abroad to get some experience and study English. And just one year ago I discovered the world of coding.
I made a lot of research, read a lot of reviews. First of all, I wanted some affordable coding bootcamp in Europe. Second, Le Wagon offers to build something real as the final project. So, it seemed to me as the best choice. And do not forget the wonderful weather, nice beaches and amazing food in Barcelona.
I still can't believe it's over. Even though it was pretty fast track, I thought it would be even worse - more difficult or impossible to understand. I will miss it. Coding is awesome. Now it is time to do so as alumni :) - continuing work on our final project Eatamina and deepen my knowledge. I believe coding open you new word with so many opportunities.
ALL YOU NEED IS CODE. Thank you guys!

Maxime Delpit
Amazing learning experience

I joined Le Wagon's Batch 6 in Paris (January – March 2015) and since then, I have been building a web agency while becoming a teacher at Le wagon on the side.
Why Le Wagon?
I see 3 main reasons why I joined Le Wagon's FullStack program at first:
1) Trying online tutorials, I always had the same outcome: "How to switch from theory to practice?"
2) I found it very hard to launch a web-based business without coding skills or without the ability to understand developers
3) I wanted to test my ideas from scratch without loosing my mind in the World Wide Web of Ideas (this is something many non-technical profiles do when thinking of a business and it often leads to frustration and to giving up).
That seemed to fit Le Wagon's mission. After meeting the core team, I decided to join the program.
The Full-stack Program
This is a 9-week intensive program where you'll learn coding best practices and develop your technical mindset. One of the main strengths of their program is the balance between teaching best practices, bringing support to students and fostering autonomy and curiosity.
- You spend enough time to learn the basics during lectures or when cracking Le Wagon's challenges.
- You learn how to be autonomous, use powerful tools and have an efficient workflow.
- You are challenged but also supported to ensure you understand the core concepts.
After 6 weeks of training, you build an Airbnb-like platform within a team and you put it in production.
The last two weeks are dedicated to working on your own personal project (or you can work on a project of a team mate), being advised and assisted by le Wagon's mentors.
Rediscover the pleasure of learning
At the beginning, I was one of those to say I'd like to learn to code but did not have enough "engineering background". At Le Wagon I had the opportunity to remember that learning a new skill is not always a question of talent.
With strong dedication, commitment and above all, curiosity, you will find your way and leverage Le Wagon's methodology. At Le Wagon, you will not only be guided but also challenged to make the concept yours. Nothing comes free, and to learn anything valuable, you have to fight for it first!
Learn from amazing people
Amazing people with different backgrounds will surround you. The staff carefully select students to create an efficient and fun learning atmosphere.
From the diversity of your buddies, you'll discover a new way of thinking. Not only from engineers that will introduce you to logical structures but also from litterary profiles who will show you that sometimes efficient wording is worth tons of logical conditions.
The staff is amazing and they are always challenging themselves to improve their program. After a few batches as a Teaching Assistant and then as a Teacher, I can tell that from their 145-batch experience they have built a great methodology and a strong education platform (that I still use!).
Life After Le Wagon
The scope is huge. Lots of your classmates have an entrepreneurial background and will keep working on their project, follow teammates they have met or dedicate to new opportunities.
Some want to become developers and will apply to a junior position. Lots of them get cool offers because they are ready to learn, be productive on their very first day and bring diversity to dev teams.
Others will apply for Product Manager positions and leverage on their dual skills in business / code to collaborate efficiently with developers.
First, I personally decided to start as a freelancer and build apps for clients but also provide them with MVP services, to help identify their product and have a lean roadmap. It was an opportunity to keep on learning every day while I fulfil my entrepreneurial thirst.
Now I have turned this freelance activity into a web agency. We are specialized in digitizing corporate processes. We design & develop simple solutions to complex corporate problems.

I recently finished batch 153 at Barcelona. And i have just one thing to say about that: it worthed a lot. The course is very well structured and make our path easier. I hadn´t any background with code so in the very begining I was scared about my capability to learn code in just 9 weeks. But after I finished the bootcamp I´m very confident about what I learned and now I have one new challenge: change the world.
I started Le Wagon feeling like an old man and now i have many plans as a kid. If you want to be greater than you are know, don´t hesitate subscribe at Le Wagon. -

I love tech, but I can’t code. That in a nutshell was the reason that got me to Le Wagon in Bali in April. Tech has always fascinated me and not being able to code bothered me a lot in my professional life as a software implementation consultant.
In just two months at Le Wagon, I learned how to code, how code works, how to transform my ideas into a web app and how to collaborate as a team of developers. I have to say that I had high expectations out of the camp but what I learned actually went beyond what I could have hoped for.
What impressed me ever since the first day of the camp was the online platform offered by Le Wagon and how it is set up, with lectures, tons of exercises, flashcards, videos and a lot of functions available to make the learning process faster and easier. All this incredible learning material, together with the huge enthusiasm and experience of the teachers who were always willing to solve any questions and clear up any confusion, made the camp a truly comprehensive, well-honed learning experience. Watch my presentation video of the project my team built - Open Space of Batch #149 to see what I am talking about. What also undoubtedly "made" the experience was the sea view from the classroom terrace and the chilled living experience you can find in Bali. I didn't want to leave!
But sadly I had to leave and since I got back to run an online academy at a global IT consultancy firm, I haven't looked back - Le Wagon has definitely increased my competencies and unquestionably given me a ton of useful skills that I can apply to my daily work or any tech projects that I decide to undertake. I can now proudly call myself a coder.

Hi guys,
I’m Michael, I am 29 years old and I got a Master’ Degree in physics (research oriented) in 2014. After that I decided to travel the world before starting my career but this experience totally changed my mind about physics and what I wanted to do. I always had a lot of different ideas in my head but I never knew where to start to make them alive (especially when the technical part begins). The idea of integrating a coding school was running in my mind and Le Wagon appeared to be one of the most effective so I did Le Wagon Montréal.
Those nine weeks of coding were an amazing experience. Although the first weeks were very hard and challenging I discovered a new way to see things. The content of the courses is very comprehensive and adapted to all backgrounds in both backend and frontend fields.
If you choose Le Wagon you will learn to code of course but not only, you’ll also learn how to launch your idea from the design to the pitch which is a useful skill if you want to open your own company!
Le Wagon is also a great human experience as everyday you work with a new classmate. During the last three weeks you’ll learn how to work as a team on a project using all the knowledge you’ve just learnt and also how to use git which is a powerful team working tool.
I’m currently working as a teacher assistant at le Wagon Montreal to help students with their daily challenges.
I would definitely recommend you to do this bootcamp for the teaching quality, their huge tech network and finally because the mindset there rocks!

I used to be a project manager in a marketing agency specialized in working with law firms. Talking to web developers was a daily challenge as I was their only point of contact in the company and I was not feeling comfortable with it. So, first of all, I wanted to better understand this world. Therefore, I went to Le Wagon Paris and I started a new life. This was the most stimulating classroom environment I did for sure ! Thanks to Le Wagon, I have become a full stack designer at a startup with my best friend whom I met at Le Wagon. The bootcamp is unique and gives you the strength to accomplish the things you would not have imagined possible otherwise... Highly recommended !

I completed Le Wagon’s Fullstack program a month ago. I had joined the bootcamp in order to change career and become a freelance developer. Before that, I worked as a journalist and I had a lot of concerns about my ability to understand code.
However, after numerous great reviews and a positive word of mouth, I was very eager to start, and I have not been disappointed.
First of all, because teachers and teaching assistants truly care about passing on their knowledge and helping us understand difficult concepts.
Then, because coding in itself seems now much more accessible and clearer to me, which enables me to look forward to new opportunities as a futur freelance developer.
Finally, there is the very rich community that you join, you are surrounded with developers and you know that if you get a problem to solve, there’ll be someone ready to help you out.
This is now my turn to recommend this course a thousand times because of the great memories I kept both on the human and professional plans ! -

My beautiful struggle and the birth of Ceziam at Le Wagon Barcelona

Before I knew it two years had rolled by, I was keen as ever to learn OOP and was based in Barcelona. I finally took the plunge during winter 2018 and left what felt to me was the best job in the world. I contacted the bootcamp and was about to pay the deposit fee. As an act of due diligence I double checked the other bootcamps in Barcelona: I emailed them all to confirm the syllabus and availability. I got an email from Le Wagon and had an interesting conversation with the school’s owner, an interesting fellow called Gus.Le Wagon seals the deal
I visited the working environment of Le Wagon Barcelona and was impressed, lots of natural light in a nice part of the city. In-addition, for me attitude is super important — after meeting Gus it seemed the school was genuinely interested in helping students learn to code with a strong emphasis on teaching practical skills, so that students can actually build well designed web applications. I signed up as quick as I could!You define your reality
A few days after the bootcamp started it was clear I’d made one of the best decisions of my life. The daily routine was roughly as follows: I travelled to Le Wagon from my home in Tibidabo (mountains overlooking Barcelona) on my Intruder 125 cruiser, a breathtaking daily commute; morning lecture sometimes up to two hours long; a quick caffeine injection at a nearby cafe in which we became the regulars, and then onto practical coding exercises to cover the course material. A number of times I was reminded by the teachers that I may find the pace too fast and not to freak out. Personally, that wasn’t an issue whatsoever. I was used to feeling like a complete moron both in my previous academic and professional life. As an undergraduate Chemistry student and then later as a Masters Physics graduate, not having a clue about what was going on was second nature to me. I felt very much at home. Also I had the added benefit of my professional life where I would routinely go into emergency meetings with engineers, developers and architects from dispersed global teams to discuss real technical problems that were costing us a million euros a minute (until they were fixed), so living under the barrel of a gun was the daily grind for me and I loved it. There were no breakdowns, no moments of get me out of here, of why don’t I understand this? Being humble and accepting there is only so much I can take in during one day helped me avoid any such drama. Instead, I can only describe it as a beautiful struggle defined by lots of inspiring conversations during coffee breaks, meeting new people and learning a lot of web application tech and architecture principles ….very, very quickly. We have a verse in Islam “there is one reality but reality and you define your own reality”. This is written in Arabic all over the Alhambra in Spain and reminds us that our limited time in this world is beautiful, if we choose to believe it.Birth of Ceziam and the future
During the last phase of the bootcamp we work on a personal project and pitch it to the class. I proposed of a web application that was cyber security focused and was lucky enough to be able to work with it with a few fellow students. We discussed it through, developed our ideas and within a few days Ceziam was born. The domain name was bought and we got coding. Ceziam is a feely available and easy to use web application that identifies core Cyber Security risks. What really stood out during this period was how well we all complimented each other, I really could not have hoped for a better project team. We were a real team with a shared vision and importantly there was a very healthy level of respect and trust between us. Our core principle is let’s make a great Cyber Security product and have fun doing it…only good things will follow. So, here’s to living with the wind in your hair, taking a chance in life and trying to reach higher. I don’t know if Ceziam will be widely used, I don’t know if it will democratise Cyber Security but I do know I’ve learned a lot, met many inspiring people and am a better person today. If there is one life lesson I really do believe in: it’s never too late to try! If you have that thing in the back of your mind you know you want to try and you feel it will make the world a better place, then take that first step.

From marketer to coder. Building EasyFork thanks to Le Wagon Barcelona
Read more Read less of Xavier Ros Martínez's review
Before joining Le Wagon I was working as a SEO, ASO & Analytics Manager for various companies like Ofertia or Leadtech, as well as being a digital marketing freelance.
I needed some extra tech skills in order to make a good performance in my roles, as well as to start a new project by myself called EasyFork.
Le Wagon helped me to learn code from 0 to a certain level that I can program a web app by myself. Now I am able to build my project as well as perform better in the past jobs I had thanks to that new skills. I was very lucky to have the chance to do the bootcamp in Barcelona, an amazing city to live in, with lots of tech companies and entrepreneurs. -

Amazing experience

I loved every minute of my bootcamp, I feel like I really progressed from being a coding newbie to being a real developer. Le Wagon just gave me the tools to learn how to build projects from scratch.
The program is experience driven, we spent hours and hours coding every single day. There wasn't a day I wasn't fully exhausted when I got home, but also fully satisfied with all the new things I had learned during the day. I am so happy I decided to quit everything and joined the Le Wagon family!

From Real Estate PM to Full Stack Developer

Before Le Wagon, I worked as a Project Manager for a Real Estate Development firm. In 2014, I wanted to update my company's website, so I took a front end web development class. I really enjoyed the class and since then coding was always at the back of my mind.
Shortly after moving to London, I met Ed Ward during Le Wagon's Open House. I had been searching for bootcamps and thought Le Wagon's entraprenurial spirit was great.
Le Wagon was definitely one of the most mentally challenging experiences I have ever had. The material was very different to anything I had ever had to learn before. Everyday, I would go to Le Wagon to learn and code for 10 hours a day, then go home to eat, shower, and sleep. Then I would wake up the next day and repeat the same routine. Although there were definitely times when I felt lost, I just kept trying my best knowing that in the end it would all somehow make sense in the end.
The last two weeks we focused on building our final project. It was a great way to put the skills we had built up during the past 7 weeks into producing a real product.
Five weeks after Le Wagon, I accepted a job offer for a junior developer role. I couldn't have done this without Le Wagon!

How learning to code at Le Wagon Barcelona changed my life and career
Read more Read less of Santiago Eid's review
I graduated from university in December of last year as an Environmental Engineer. After two months figuring out my next move, I realized that something was missing. Being a big fan of technology, I always wanted to code but never had the chance to do it.
I was planning to work on renewable technology accessibility and raising awareness of there presence in my country through a website. Then, I had a thought: “why not learn code and build this project with it?” Code, for me at the time, was this cryptic language that made every electronic thing work. After days of research, I found Le Wagon Barcelona and that was it. I had to do it.
I arrived to Barcelona five days before the course started in May. I was amazed by the city that Barcelona is. Coming from a developing country, all the streets, buildings, parks and things to do where unbelievable.
During my time at Le Wagon I didn’t only learn how to code. I learned how to think and manage motivation. During the 9 weeks, I was absorbing information at an incredible rate. It was the biggest challenge I had ever faced. From knowing zero code, I ended up building Ceziam for my project week alongside a team of very smart people in the same position I was in. Ceziam is an app, which anybody can use, that detects your websites core cybersecurity risks. I couldn’t believe that in just 9 weeks I had built a fully functional app that is now available to all!
Now, the project continuous and Ceziam is becoming a company of which I’m a Co-founder. I also came back home and have the confidence that I can build the project I wanted to do. Le Wagon changed my life and made me a better thinker, a better engineer and a better person.

Simply a must do!

I always knew I wanted to create my own business, but after finishing my undergraduate studies in management in London, I felt I lacked some of the tools to do it. Sharing a flat with three developers and wanting to develop my own product, I decided to do Le Wagon to get some knowledge in code. And knowledge I got. I can easily say that it is by far, one of the best experience of my life. Those 9 weeks were tremendously enriching on both an intellectual and human level. It is quite amazing what you can do when you put completely different people who share the same passion for learning, creating and innovating in the same room. Whether it was the quality and the dedication of the professors, the sharpness of the curriculum or the overall philosophy of the bootcamp, Le Wagon is a must do whether you want to become a developer, build your product or simply learn to code. It not only taught me how to build my own website and tools, it taught me humility, intellectual perseverance, and stirred my curiosity for other industries and new technologies. Those 9 weeks went by extremely fast although they required hard work. Now, I am pursuing my Master’s in Paris, developing my business on the side, maintaining the amazing friendships I made and annoy anyone who would listen that ‘Le Wagon is amazing’. Highly recommend.

Best coding bootcamp for marketers
Read more Read less of Victor Leboda's review
I am Growth Lead at Germinal. 🔥🛠
I did the Wagon (batch 101) when I was already a growth marketer but I began to feel limited in everyday life from a technical point of view: tools with limited functionality, need to understand the code in general and to become independent of developers, need to create custom scripts, code a site or features quickly.
I had to become a technical marketer, but it's out of the question to waste my time 4 years in a school, or to learn for myself for months.
The Wagon was obvious to me for 3 reasons: the training is fast, the quality of the training (more than 10 marketers around me praising the quality), the active and international community which is useful in a practical way when we have a question where professionally.During the training? 1) Many good meetings, networking, hyper interesting events. Today I can say that I am part of a community of developers that I see regularly and to whom I can call if necessary. 2) Pedagogy is very impressive (courses, exercises, live code, platform, flashcards, teachers assistants ...) and especially effective. Today I can say that I owe a lot to the Wagon.
The price ? It is worth it very widely. Work ? Personally I had 3-4 offers a week during the training, I chose the best.
THANK YOU LE WAGON ❤️

Je suis Growth Lead chez Germinal. 🔥🛠
J'ai fait Le Wagon (batch 101) alors que j'étais déjà Growth marketer mais que je commençais à me sentir limité au quotidien d'un point de vue technique : outils aux fonctionnalités limitées, besoin de compréhension du code en général et d'indépendante vis-à-vis des développeurs, besoin de créer des scripts personnalisés, de coder un site ou des features rapidement.
Je devais devenir technical marketer, mais hors de question de perdre mon temps 4 ans dans une école, ni d'apprendre par moi-même durant des mois.
Le Wagon était comme une évidence pour moi pour 3 raisons : la formation est rapide, la qualité de la formation (plus de 10 marketers autour de moi en vantant la qualité), la communauté active et internationale qui est utile de façon pratique quand on a une question où professionnellement.Pendant la formation ? 1) Plein de bonnes rencontres, de networking, d'événements hyper intéressants. Aujourd'hui je peux dire que je fais partie d'une communauté de développeurs que je vois régulièrement et à qui je peux faire appel au besoin. 2) La pédagogie est très impressionnante (cours, exercices, live code, la plateforme, les flashcards, les teachers assistants...) et surtout efficace. Aujourd'hui je peux dire que je dois beaucoup au Wagon.
Le prix ? Ça le vaut très largement. Le travail ? Personnellement j'ai eu pendant la formation 3-4 offres par semaine, j'ai choisi la meilleure.
MERCI LE WAGON ❤️

From business dev to real dev! How a sales profile learns coding in Barcelona.
Read more Read less of Piotr Godzinski's review
I started confident that LW would make me at least understand code.. as the bootcamp was going on, beside a great human adventure (9 weeks facing code challenges, with other « poor » volunteers, just like me), I discovered LW was even able to teach us more: how to code on our own!
LW just figured out how to store encyclopaedias in our heads.. To be honest, I had serious doubts about my ability to learn so much.. but guess what.. we always can learn and LW knows how to make it happen!
Few words about LW Barcelona in particular.. LW processes and teaching techniques are perfectly organised.. but.. what makes a huge difference, what makes us all (students) keep motivated and never giving up.. are people working in there (from general manager to most junior teacher).. they just keep motivating us, treating us like with a lot of attention.. and patience. I feel like they were here to make us feel good, happy, focused and part of the LW community.
I’ll conclude adding that LW was the best experience I ever had. I encourage any one reading those lines.. to read more feedbacks.. and just jump into it!
During LW bootcamp, I red this on the Google Chrome daily momentum : « Live as if you were to die tomorrow »… (this we know.. but what comes next)…« Learn as if you were to live forever. » - Mahatma Gandhi

Really worth it!!

Prior to joining le Wagon, I had worked in 3 SaaS startups. As Sales Manager, MD and CEO.
I always felt like my lack of technical knowledge was costing me a lot:
- I had no idea of what were the technical implications of client requests (so they had to wait for me to check with the tech team)
- I couldn't appreciate properly the work of the tech team
- I wasn't aware of what was possible or not.So after quite some time looking online, I selected Le Wagon. I didn't regret it at all: the tool and the methodology are just freaking awesome.
I don't think I've absorb so much knowledge in such a short period of time!
I also really enjoyed that they select candidates so that I was surrounded by very cool people!
Today, I am actually working on a company project with 2 of my former classmates.Thank you le Wagon!

Nicolas Bresson
The start of the entrepreneurship journey
Read more Read less of Nicolas Bresson's review
"Ideas are easy, execution is what matters!” and this is where Le Wagon jumps-in. We all have business ideas but few of us bring them into life. Some of us are too risk-averse, while others do not know “how to” or miss the skills to bootstrap their projects. I guarantee that the bootcamps will help you remove these roadblocks between your ideas and what could be your future venture.
After business school, I worked for an international management consulting company for more than 2 years and was given the opportunity to take a leave to do “something different”. I had always been interested in computer science and wanted to gain the skills to develop my own business prototypes in the future. Therefore, I embarked on the journey and pushed this hidden door with a red kombi van logo on it.
From day one you get totally immersed: the format is very demanding with 10+ hours of code every day but extremely well structured so that you continuously keep yourself focused and challenged. Lectures in the morning, katanas and coding challenges with your buddy during the day, live code to finish, without forgetting your daily homework. It will burn your brain but you will like it. Most importantly you realise how steep is your learning curve.
The quality of the program is very impressive and its content is thoughtfully improved between every batch. Nowhere else you will find so much commitment to the quality of the teaching experience. Teachers and assistants are not only very strong technically and dedicated, they literally live through the program as much as we do as students: from your first steps with ruby algorithms to the deployment of your rails applications you continually feel pushed and motivated. As a result, you will develop strong fundamentals to become a full-stack developer and learn to gain the skills you need for your projects.
However, on top of the solid technical skills you will build, the main value added of the bootcamp lies in the people you meet and the amazing community of alumni you join: this is priceless. Within your batch you will meet people with different backgrounds sharing the same motivation for learning to code and chasing their aspiration. You might find the ideal co-founder there! The resulting atmosphere consists in an incredible experience which you will remember for a long time.
In a nutshell, I strongly recommend Le Wagon to anyone who wants to jump into programming and learn the technical foundations to build web applications. Personally, the program brought me the skills to bootstrap a first project in data analytics and then, led me to launch SteerIO, a new project health analytics company leveraging collective intelligence and AI to boost project success rates and support organisations in their transformation journeys (more info on https://www.steerio.co/?src=coursereport).

Top 9 weeks program!
Read more Read less of Amael Béghin Stein's review
I started my career as a trader in a bank but I always wanted to create my own business. When I had the opportunity to really launch my project I spent a lot of time finding my co-founder and web development skills to build my tech product.
As a trader I know pretty well that time is money and I was then facing a situation where our product would have been built in several months and that it would have cost a lot to have it ready. I decided to stop the venture and learn to code in order to be able to build my idea from scratch. I wanted something efficient, so I short listed few bootcamps and contacted alumnis and read reviews. I had this interview with Edouard in their office and I was really seduced by the 9 weeks program and the atmosphere. This period was really important for me as I met people from many different horizons and it has represented the beginning of my new venture. I met my new co-founder at le wagon and now we have created our startup where we are launching the first price negotiator robot in the sharing economy. We have been able to code our bot from scratch in Ruby within messenger interface (m.me/helloearnest) and now we are coding a B2B web version.
And thanks to the 3000+ le wagon alumni’s we are able to make partnerships with big names in our field. -

a very good experience !

With friends we had many ideas of web-based company that we wanted to create but I never had the skills to test them. So I read information about different bootcamps in France.
After going to several demodays where I was surprised by the MVP’s quality that were showcased, I decided to register for their 9-week program.In the first days, we are warned that the training is intensive and it’s true ! We feel that the training is iterative and that Le Wagon improves its courses between each batch.
I really liked the emulation between students. Everyone is caring and shares his knowledge. We all have the same passion : web, startups, technology, entrepreneurship but everyone has different backgrounds: one was a policeman before, others engineers, designers...In summary, this bootcamp allowed me to understand the web, how it works. It gave me some technical skills. It also brought me the pride of being able to develop the call-of-dirty project with 2 other alumni.

Remi Duvoux
Mind-blowing
Read more Read less of Remi Duvoux's review
My name is Remi and I just graduated from HEC, a business school in Paris. I'm currently launching a startup in the business travel space, and Le Wagon has been one of the most mind-blowing events in my life.
I joined Le Wagon 2 years ago, during my gap year. After internships at a Rocket Internet startup and a VC, I felt I really wanted to create my own company. But I felt incapable of building anything with my own hands. Some of my friends had joined Le Wagon, and had told me a lot about it.
I was the youngest guy of my batch (21 y/o at that time), but I felt welcome since day 1. I made friends with amazing people that were twice my age, and others that had completely different backgrounds. I enjoyed so much the unique peer-to-peer / learning-by-doing pedagogy I felt I had never learned anything so fast.
Following Le Wagon, I became a freelance developer for a few months, and I got back to school. I never stopped coding, and I built the first version of our startup's product. I still hang out with friends I met at Le Wagon, and the community has been of great help when I was lost in my code :)

Worth every penny

I joined Le Wagon’s coding bootcamp in Paris to get real about learning the fundamentals of web development. Before that, I had been through dozens of online courses but I never really knew where to start so I just stagnated after a while. I knew I needed to change something if I wanted to make real progress.
That’s when I came across Le Wagon and it’s bootcamp format. With Le Wagon, you go back to school for 9 weeks and learn web development the same way you used to learn other stuff back in the days: by giving it your full and uninterrupted attention, surrounded by teachers and other students.
What I really love about Le Wagon’s coding bootcamp is that it’s designed to be comprehensive from the get go. No more a la carte, you’re on for the full menu. No need to pick random languages or difficulty levels. Those decisions have been made for you, which means that you can focus on what really matters.
After completing Le Wagon’s full stack program, I now understand the grammar of web development and I feel like I can pick online courses or books with more confidence to keep making progress on my own. It’s a great feeling.

It’s not just a slogan. Le Wagon did change my life.

Before Le Wagon, I had just finished a business degree in University. I liked it but I wasn’t too happy to go to a mega corporation and read excel sheets for 8 hours a day or work myself to sleep in a consulting company (nothing’s wrong with it if it’s your vibe).
I was really scared that coming from a business background and not knowing anything about code I wouldn’t keep up! The thing is that most of my group came from different backgrounds and places and had complete opposite experiences from me! Not only did that leave me at ease about my lack of knowledge in the matter but it created the amazing environment that is Le Wagon!
The 9 weeks were very hard but so rewarding. It’s was constant shift between feeling on top of the world and feeling like you truly have no idea of what’s happening. The truth is that none of us gave up and I ended up presenting an amazing project - not bias at all :)
Now that I finished, I want to learn more and find a job as a junior developer. I feel like the course has given me more than enough skills to do so.
100% recommend it to anyone!

Le Wagon is Second to None
Read more Read less of Masaki Noguchi's review
I learned more applicable skills in 9 weeks than I did in four full years of university (and I learned a lot in university!)
I took a pause from a career in investment banking and traveled from California to London just to attend Le Wagon as I had heard of the schools stellar reputation, and I was not disappointed. I didn’t know anyone in the country, and had no idea how to code (I actually thought CSS stood for Computer Science Something, whoops), so of course the process was a bit intimidating. Thankfully, the folks at Le Wagon seriously know how to run the camp to eliminate that anxiety from week one. Nobody here has an ego, and I think that culture is driven top down from management and the teachers, as well as in their selection process. Every single person was friendly, approachable, and helpful. Everyone wants to learn and progress together, and it makes for a really special time.
A word of advice: You will feel stupid. You will feel incompetent. You will DEFINITELY doubt whether or not you’ve got what it takes to code. That’s normal — and it’s all part of the process :slightly_smiling_face: By the end of the camp (especially in the last two weeks) you’ll be slinging apps left and right.
Le Wagon will always hold a very special place in my heart. I’ve made some great friends here, and know I have a place where I belong across the pond. Shout out to Batch 143!!!!

The amazingness of hard work

Before Le Wagon I had a stable job that I liked, but I didn't love. I needed a change, something that pushed me forward to a better and happier future. And that's when I found Le Wagon.
I'm not going to lie or sugar coat it. Those 9 weeks were the most intense weeks of my life so far. I had opposite feelings throughout (sometimes at the same time): I loved it and I hated it, I felt really smart and really dumb, I wanted to hug the teachers and punch them. On the first day, Shannon said 'you just gotta keep going and trust the process' and that's what I did. And it was painful. And I survived. Not only I survived, I had 2 prototypes done and was as proud of them as a mother is proud of her children. They were my babies, they were the result of 9 weeks of hard work, and I couldn't be happier.
I learned a lot and I made new friends, there was time to be serious and time to have fun (Cocktail Thursday!), and I ended up with a whole new set of skills. Now I have a new door open and a new future for me to explore.

Excellent coding programme

Le Wagon is a great way to transition into tech as an entrepreneur. I am a former finance professional who has run my own business since 2009. I am excited by the changes in technology and want to transition my business towards using more technology.
As a business owner I considered it essential that I had the ability to control and understand the code my business utilises, which meant I needed to learn to code.
Le Wagon’s programme exceeded all my expectations. In the nine weeks we learnt full stack web-development and the final fortnight involved writing our own project.
Le Wagon combines an enthusiastic staff and a world class teaching platform to deliver knowledge. Best of all we retain access to our lectures and notes on the platform after the programme and I am already reaching out to the vast alumni network to help me with problems. It is very difficult to change career or direction, but Le Wagon’s programme is one of the best ways to do it.
