Le Wagon

Choosing the Web Development bootcamp at Le Wagon Madrid was one of the best decisions I made.

I decided to learn coding because I founded a tech start-up without really understanding all the technical work that was behind it, which is why this was a perfect opportunity to go from 0 to 100 in only 9 weeks, and it definitely met my expectations. And not only that, I also loved everything I learnt and now I can't wait to start bringing my ideas into life.

I felt welcomed by the most amazing staff since the first day. They did everything they could to help us make the most of this experience, learn, engage with the rest of the students and feel as a big family by the end of the bootcamp.

Le Wagon proposes a buddy system that allows students to work in pairs and teams, which is a perfect reflection of real life. The teachers' mission is not to provide us with easy solutions, but to teach us how to think and face real situations.

Finally, the huge community we belong to from the moment we enroll, gives all the students endless opportunities to keep connecting, learning, helping each other and being up to date with any news, trends and job openings.

The more you learn, the more you realize how long the way still is, but this is a perfect starting point to train your brain and prepare for a new path. A perfect match for anyone looking to reinvent themselves. Read less

What I liked most about the course was the ecosystem it has. What I mean, basically everything. The teachers with an incredible willingness to help and make you get the best out of yourself. On the other hand, the structure of the course, you can see how well thought out it is to be as efficient as possible in three months, with the readings in the morning, the challenges and the key summary in the afternoon to see what of the day. Not to mention the location and the incredible classrooms we have, with the best view and very close to the wave to be able to surf! And finally, the people, the atmosphere that was created with everyone was incredible, very good conversations, activities and new friends for life. I learned a lot from the course but I also took with me very good memories and learning from the people.

One of the best experiences I have ever had. I became a programmer in the best way and in the quickest and most efficient way. And in between I was able to make lifelong friends and practice sports while studying, definitely something to do in life.

I enrolled in Le Wagon’s Web Development program back in October 2021 and it was an amazing experience! The teachers are very professional and dedicated, they give you all the tools to improve your skills and become a fully accomplished web developer. I found my first job as a web developer three months after graduating. 100% would recommend! Read less

I would recommend this bootcamp to anyone trying to learn tech and coding. The teachers and TAs are friendly, very smart, and accomplished. Not only is the material up to date, allowing you to learn THE latest tech stack available, the community supports the learning process of students. I started with zero coding experience but a month after graduating, I was able to land a freelance offer at a company, changing the entire outlook of my career. Career support is extensive, with many companies coming to campus to recruit Le Wagon graduates. 

It would be a waste if someone considering a career change does not consider Le Wagon Tokyo. Read less

Le Wagon isn't just a bootcamp, is an experience. I finished the final project on the 10th of June 2022, batch #865 in Lisbon. The same day I remembered the concerns I had before I started Le Wagon.

1. Is 9 weeks really going to teach me enough?
- In the last 3 weeks of the camp, my team and I were able to build 2 full-fledged web applications and present them to an audience. I would say the last 3 weeks I have realized how much knowledge I acquired!

2. Is the structure of the education will be a good fit for someone who has 0 experience?
- Absolutely! Le Wagon gave me tools to make my life easier. For instance, prep work before the education starts. Slides, quiz cards, lectures, videos, etc... It was better than I hoped for.

3. Are the classmates going to be nice?
Le Wagon did a great job selecting people who are motivated to learn! I was part of a group, and everyone had similar goals with the bootcamp. And lots of fun socializing with them :)

4. Will the teachers help the ones who are falling a bit behind, or focus on the better students?
The teachers in Lisbon were absolutely amazing! They were helping with every little thing, open-minded, motivating, and funny. They were ready for all my questions, and when I felt behind they helped me to catch up, understand the challenges, and push me in the right direction.  They did their best to pay attention to everyone!

5. Am I going to be able to do this?
This question seems silly right now. I went to Le Wagon, and I enjoyed every second of it! The real challenge is after the bootcamp. It is a never-ending journey. Just keep showing up and do your best!

If you are thinking about which bootcamp you should go for, or if you should do one, I highly recommend applying for Le Wagon. Great opportunity to give yourself! Read less

9 intense week of studying and learning everything that is necessary to get you started in the field of data science. It was an amazing time where I got to meet great teachers and students. I knew nothing about data or coding before entering te bootcamp, it was the prep work and dedication that got me through it all. I would recommend everyone that is thinking about entering the world of data science or coding to do this bootcamp. The world from here is at your feet.   Read less

I had a magnificent educational experience at Le Wagon in Cologne. The hands-on approach of the courses gives you the opportunity to practice with multiple coding challenges and work on real-life projects, allowing you to build up your coding skills. The most essential aspect is that you have the outstanding support and assistance of the staff and teachers who walk you through each lecture and coding challenge. It is a life-changing experience because even if you have little or no coding experience they take you from zero to hero! I highly recommend joining Le Wagon! Read less

“Change your life, learn to code.” At this point the motto is almost an inside joke. For me, it is 100% true though. I joined Le Wagon to finally do something that is actually interesting and because, frankly, I couldn’t do it on my own - I’ve tried. Having this structure, a singular focus every day, a super well thought out curriculum and tons of support from the Teachers and TA’s is a total game changer. To me, this is hands down the best way to learn. And learn, you will. It is truly insane what we were able to build in such a short time.

Also, having a group of peers that struggle alongside you and the absolutely lovely staff here in Cologne made it a family-like atmosphere pretty much from day one. And the wider Le Wagon community is super cool as well. So many great people and so many opportunities. It really is amazing.

For anyone wanting change direction in life and get in to coding, i would recommend without hesitation!

I had an amazing time learning in Le Wagon Data Science bootcamp.
The program is well structured and well organised so you build knowledge day after day. The 9 weeks are intense, but you're never alone, all the staff and and TAs have been a great help during this journey. I strongly recommend the bootcamp for anyone that want to upscale their technical skills and embrace a career in Data Science. Read less

An excellent course with friendly and highly motivated teachers. 

The pace of the course is very fast in order to cover a wide variety of topics within the 9-week time frame. For this reason I would recommended the course for people who are at least somewhat computer savvy. 

I really cannot overstate how import the support of the teachers and staff is to enable this rapid pace. Many people try to learn data science on their own, using online resources, but without proper teachers they end up stuck or progressing very slowly. Le Wagon enables you to achieve in a few weeks what without guidance would take you years. Read less

Since I was a little kid I have always liked technology. My older brother was the one always pushing me to learn to code and I knew that I was going to study something related to that. One of my friends suggested I do a bootcamp. I found on the internet that Le Wagon is one of the best bootcamps in the world. At first, I was scared because I didn’t know if my English was good enough and if the skills I learned by myself (as part of the Prep work) were good enough. So I took the risk and I think this is the best experience I have ever had! The first day you feel out of place because almost everyone is from a different country and with a different background! But the days pass and you feel more and more at home! One of the things that Le Wagon taught me and I appreciate the most is learning to think in computer logic. And the other remarkable thing is the speed at which you learn to learn new things! This one of the most important tools Le Wagon teaches you. Read less

Coming from an international business background, I had always been curious and fascinated by what people can achieve with programming and coding. I attempted multiple times to study on my own online, but of course life always got in the way. While living in Madrid, I finally discovered Le Wagon and decided to dive in head first into the 9 week Web Development course. The course is extremely well structured and well thought out, allowing students to progress through increasingly challenging concepts in a way that encourages real hands-on learning. Lectures on the material are always teaching industry best practices, the challenges are stimulating and allow students to put into practice what they learned, and teachers/staff are supportive and continuously strive for our success.
Additionally, the course simulates a company work environment where students are encouraged to attempt their best solution, seek out how to solve problems online, to create "tickets" in order to get help from the teachers/TAs (like you would with your Sr. Developer on your team). It's truly a rewarding experience to be able to, after only 9 weeks, to design, to code and implement, and finally to launch your web application for anyone to use. Coming out of the Le Wagon bootcamp you'll feel ready to seek out a position in tech, pursue a path of continuous learning with the attitude that you can take on and learn anything that is thrown your way.
I believe that if you want to change your life, you should learn to code with Le Wagon. Read less

I studied Industrial Engineering in Madrid. Once I finished, I started a Masters straight away, I liked what I was doing, but it was too theoretical, so I decided to look for something that was more practical and where I could see the result of my doings with my own eyes. I found Le Wagon and all the reviews I read were great, so I decided to try it during my summer vacations of the Masters. I have just finished the bootcamp and I can assure you that I have accomplished my goal of moving away from theory and going into practice. You have to learn everything with trial and error, but with a very well thought-out methodology behind that Le Wagon provides (Trust me, it is really fun if you like challenges). Right now, I am sure that I will be coding in my career because I love it and it is one of the most useful things I have ever learn. I can really recommend Le Wagon to everyone that wants to learn because, if it is your own choice you will not be disappointed. Read less

After many years in the classical music industry I decided to change my career path towards tech and coding. I did the Full-stack Web Development bootcamp (part time) and it has been probably the best decision I’ve made career wise. It is very well structured and the teachers were always very helpful. What stands out for me the most is that, a part of all the good resources and endless learning material, at Le Wagon they really want you to succeed. We had a lot of networking events, Get Me Hired events, tech talks, a Career Week where they help you prepare for the job search or freelancing after the bootcamp... etc. I really enjoyed it! Just one month after finishing my bootcamp I landed a job as a junior software engineer in a big company! Read less

For a long time, I was striving to learn web development tools by myself, but I did not have such a significant boost that would immediately move me up the career ladder. As the 2022 hit, I decided to undergo Le Wagon full-stack web development bootcamp in Amsterdam in purpose to put myself into an intensive 10 weeks training in which I either sink or swim. Definitely being amongst highly knowledgeable and professional teachers brought the change. I was continuously learning best web development practices and I was striving to be just as good as my teachers. As the result, I wrote my first production-level code, completed all phases of the software development lifecycle and created two full-stack projects. The beauty of the Le Wagon bootcamp is that they convey knowledge with real passion and they make sure that every student gets help. Additionally, by undertaking career week workshops, I got all set for job hunting, I felt greater confidence as my network expanded and I acquired soft skills. Le Wagon bootcamp really ignited the fire in my professional development very intensively and interestingly. It led my way to become a junior web developer in one of the big four companies.

I took the data science part-time course. The experience was intense but very rewarding. It was a complete experience: both theoretical and with a lot of practice, which allowed me to understand, assimilate and consolidate the concepts seen in the lecture videos watched before each session. You come out of the course with not only a data scientist's toolbox but also the fundamentals in the main fields of data science: data analysis, machine learning, deep learning and data engineering. 
Beyond the training formula, I really liked the teachers and TAs, many of whom have experienced the same training, so they are very understanding, caring and supportive. 
With my professional experience in the scientific field, this bootcamp allows me now to be involved in projects using health databases. I would recommend it for anyone willing to up-skill in this field in a very fast and hands-on way. Read less

From the first day of the bootcamp , until the day I found a job, the support I had from Le Wagon Team  was amazing. Course was well structured, covered all the important topics and teachers were very helpful, patient and responsive. We had a great career coach but not only that, guidance and help from every team member of Le Wagon was just  astounding. I had so much fun learning, I was sad when the bootcamp was over but I still have access to all the exercises and lecture after the bootcamp as well. What a wonderful Journey it was!! If you are thinking about coding bootcamp, Le Wagon is the place to join.
