Le Wagon

If I look back at 2019 and review the decisions I took, I could definitely rank the one, that brought me to Le Wagon, as one of the best I have ever made. 
There are so many online resources, which can help you develop your coding skills but no matter how good the course is, there is always something missing - guidance, proper structure or simply someone, you can rely on, when facing all the difficulties along your coding journey, someone, who can give you the missing drive, when things are not going the way you imagined at first place. The guys from Le Wagon managed to ace all those aspects, which made the whole experience unforgettable. 
The program is intense and actually this is how it is supposed to be, in order to get the best of the bootcamp and strive for a successful career in the tech industry. The journey was quite challenging for me but it was worth every minute - especially seeing the final product developed by our project team on the Demo Day. 
Now couple of months later, remembering the time spent there, I am glad making this step as it brought me new skills and introduced me to great people - all part of a supportive Alumni community, where you can share your questions and ideas (not only during but also after the bootcamp is over).  Read less

I did le Wagon in Bali batch #273. 

Everything was super well organized ! In 9 weeks I learnt so much thanks to the teachers that did their best to help everybody.

At the end of the bootcamp, I found a job thanks to Le Wagon ! It really boost my career !

Also life was very good during the bootcamp. Events was organized during the weekend and the evening. That permits everybody to know very well each other at the end of the 9 weeks.

Before I started the bootcamp I was working in an online marketing agency. I started the bootcamp because I was always interested in coding & also wanted to be independent from our IT department. So I quit my job.

To be honest I was really scared if this was the right decision and I always imagined myself struggling so hard that I need to go back to my old job.

But in the end it was the best decision & I had  an amazing time at Le Wagon Berlin. I learned so much in these 9 intensive weeks and got so much help from all the teachers and staff from Le Wagon. Next to that it was also a great experience because of all the people I got to know. It really felt like a second home in the end and actually I was super sad to leave this place after these great weeks.

But the good thing about Le Wagon is, that you are still in this big community. So after the bootcamp you get a lot of help and information from more than 7.000 graduates from all over the world.

So all I can say is thank you to Le Wagon and all the teachers for this great time!

And to everyone who is still unsure about doing the bootcamp or not: DO IT ☺️💪🏻

Since I was a child, I have had great interest in computers and everything they entail, from superficial aspects all the way to the small details that make up the the inner workings of a computer. I started a CES (Computational Engineering Science) course to dive deeper into it, and suddenly found myself falling in love with programming! At that point, I was absolutely certain that I wanted to become a developer and program for a living. The problem, however, was that at the same time I started to notice that the course I had chosen wasn't really taking me to where I wanted to be. This is where Le Wagon came in!

While searching for a way to improve my coding skills and really focus on becoming a developer, I came across Le Wagon. I admit that I was afraid at first, because it all sounded very daunting and I wasn't really sure if was going to be able to keep up. After a pep-talk from my family and a couple of deep breaths, I signed up and went in head-first...and I loved every second of it. Don't get me wrong, it was not easy — the syllabus is tough and there is a lot of information —, but boy was it fun. I learned a lot of new things — programming languages (yes, plural) that were entirely new to me, software development patterns, databases, a many other things in between. I also learned that "teamwork makes the dream work", which became clear very quickly because of the amazing community that is Le Wagon, from staff to students. The buddy system — a system that automatically creates pairs of students that will work together, daily — is a great way to make sure that you always have someone you can discuss solutions with, which is very important when coding your way through all the daily challenges. There's always an example of a real life application for what you're learning so that you can easily see what you can achieve as you go. In the end, it all comes together in one giant toolbox of skills that you will use to create an entire project, in a team, from scratch!

On the staff side, everything is planned, built and executed very well. Everyone is quick on their feet and always ready to help you out if get stuck — without giving away the answers, but rather helping you use the tools you have to figure it out for yourself. Everyone is full of energy and the atmosphere is just amazing! Even after the bootcamp you will always have their support if you need it, as well as from the entire Le Wagon community (as in worldwide) for anything from searching for a job to solving coding issues with your personal projects.

I hope that I was able to convey just how amazing Le Wagon is, even thought I barely scratched the surface. If you're afraid, don't be. There is always someone there to help you learn, and the community is tight-knight and growing with every new batch of students worldwide. You'll feel right at home! It's a great opportunity to learn a lot of new things and make friends, and I can promise you that you will not regret it. It's tough, but you can do it! Read less

I always was fascinated by technology since I was a little kid so it was kind of natural to study electrical engineering. During my studies I've worked in several corporate companies and always had the feeling not to see the impact of my work. I wanted to get closer to the user and build something for people I can relate to.
With "Apps" I found something, that really sparked my interest and I was curious about how to build them.

I was now in my master's when I started to learn web development on my own with online resources. Since the web as we know it today has gone through a long evolution, I felt kind of overwhelmed by all the anagrams. I didn't really know where to start. While I was doing research I came across the topic "Coding Bootcamp". It didn't take long to make a decision then. I dropped out of university, took a full-time job in a restaurant to get the course fees together and finally moved to Berlin.
The 9 weeks at Le Wagon were very demanding and impressive at the same time. Nothing was missing and I learned all the tools I need to implement my own ideas. I met amazing people and today I am proud to be part of a community of people who share the same passion for digitalization. Read less

 The slogan of Le Wagon describes exactly my experience at the bootcamp! A little bit about me for the background: I have been working as a Biz Dev Manager in the Ad Tech Industry. I learnt a lot during that time. But I felt it wasn't the thing I wanted to do for the next 10 years. A friend of mine was a professional musician and changed his career path into coding through a bootcamp. It made me understand that you don't need a technical background or having studied computer science to become a developer. I tried coding and loved it. I like to work on one hand analytical and on the other hand creative. I could find it in coding. Moreover I love to meditate, and coding is truly meditative. Or a good training for letting go when you feel frustrated! So I watched for a coding bootcamp in Berlin and wanted to do Le Wagon for several reasons: - the curriculum is very transparent and well-structured. You know exactly what to expect from the program. - you have access to the learning platform after the bootcamp for an unlimited time. - Le Wagon puts a big effort in its alumni community. During the bootcamp, I will not lie : it's intense! You learn a lot. But as you have access to the platform, including videos from the lectures, you can catch up later or after the bootcamp. The learning platform is amazing, the program is very transparent and fills the expectations of the curriculum. You can see with this program that Le Wagon is a well structured organisation wanting to give the best quality for its students. The teaching staff was very supportive and accessible. During the bootcamp, we had enough teachers and teacher assistants to answer the questions during the day. So I didn’t wait when I needed help. There as well, I could feel that Le Wagon puts a lot of effort so that the students have a good experience and a good time. Every friday (and more if you want), there is drinks organised where staff and students come together. As well people who didn’t want to take actively part of the community events weren’t push to do so. Everyone is welcome, the way he/she wants. Regarding the alumni community, Le Wagon went beyond my expectations. You have access to a big and active network who shares experiences and knowledges after the bootcamp. After the bootcamp, I looked three months for a job and got hired as a Junior Front End Developer. So this is why I can tell that Le Wagon was a life-changing experience :)   Read less

After studying Communications, I never really found what I wanted to do. I've been working in the startup scene, and noticed that operations was something that I liked a lot: hands-on and automating processes. However, I never fully understood what was happening in the backend of our programs. 

Le Wagon organises lots of events, one of them I attended and I learned to setup a landing page within a day with some basic HTML and CSS. This made me super happy and gave me the insight that I could definitely could learn how to code. The group of teachers and TAs that day convinced me that I shouldn't doubt about myself and my skills. 

Not gonna lie: the bootcamp is intense. You'll earn so much on a day, that sometimes it was hard to keep up. But once I understood that it isn't a competition - you're there purely for yourself - the experience was so great. I'm proud of the hard skills I've gained, I'm proud of the contacts I've made, and I'm proud of our final project that turned into an actual company. 

The whole experience is a melting pot of great people (so many different backgrounds and nationalities), great teachers and TAs (they all have done the bootcamp themselves), a super up to date curriculum, and a learning tool that is designed by themselves so it's adjusted when needed. I would fully recommend this bootcamp to everyone.  Read less

I was previously employed as a supermarket branch manager, having graduated from NUS Business School. I joined their Operations Executive Programme and was fortunate to have been given an opportunity to lead a store, despite being more junior in age compared to most of my colleagues. However, even though it was a comfortable yet challenging job, I felt I needed to future proof myself to keep myself up to date with the continuously changing world. I felt that coding was an essential skill I needed to pick up, so I looked around for quick ways that would enable me to transition into the tech world. Eventually, I decided on Le Wagon as it had the best reviews online (4.99/5 stars!) and read that while other Bootcamps started to become more commercialised, Le Wagon still provided
students with an authentic learning experience. As such, I left my job in Nov 2019 to begin on this journey.
Since it was my goal going into the Bootcamp to change my career, I spent some time during the Bootcamp applying for jobs and preparing for interviews. It was not easy as it was quite disruptive, but thankfully, I managed to get a job before the Bootcamp ended as an Application Developer, which I believe was due to the strong foundations that Le Wagon taught us. A few months ago, I was really doubtful, but I’m glad I took the leap of faith. I strongly recommend Le Wagon to those who are looking for a career change or just looking to pick up some programming skills. The teachers are amazing, the community is amazing and the resources are amazing. Even if you do not want to become a developer, programming can help automate so many parts of our lives. Of course, the journey will probably not be easy; it can be tough and painful at times, but I believe it’ll be worth it at the end.
I especially liked the positive attitude of the Le Wagon team. On the first day, I remember Dirk, who is the founder of Le Wagon Singapore, saying, “Don’t try to compare yourself with others as you will only end up frustrated. At the end of the Bootcamp, compare yourself with yourself from Day 1 of the Bootcamp.” Coming from an education system where grades are always relative, it was refreshing to learn something with that kind of perspective.
The first few weeks of the Bootcamp were challenging. They tried to get students up to speed on core programming concepts, data structures and algorithms. Every day for the first 6 weeks, we had a lecture from 9.00am to 10.30am, and the rest of the day would be mostly spent solving coding challenges. Teachers would be available to give help when needed. The best part about this however,
was the learning resources. What you would normally spend hours Googling or watching Youtube Tutorials for can be found within minutes in their resources.
A highlight during the early weeks was building a basic food delivery app in the terminal, where users can create orders and it will be assigned to different delivery riders. We spent about 2 – 3 days doing this and I believe most of us were all super proud that we could create something like that in less than 3 weeks of learning.
Over the next few weeks, we spent more time on databases, front-end and finally, Ruby on Rails. Ruby on rails is basically a framework using the Ruby language that allows you to create web applications quickly and easily. I really enjoyed the framework as it is easy to use and very intuitive, especially for beginners. The next highlight was to create an Airbnb Clone using this framework as a group. Group work was definitely a bit more different than coding individually. In a group, different ideas arise from how we approach a particular problem, and issues such as how the design should look like are debated frequently. It was definitely a good experience on how to code as a team as it simulates the working environment in the real world. Agile methodologies were also practised, and we had to do a daily stand up every day to describe what we are working on and if we had any problems hindering our progress. Most tech companies tend to use it, and it was definitely a good experience for me before I started my job.
The last highlight of the bootcamp was the final project. For me, I was paired with Amanda and Blake. Our final project was to build on Amanda’s idea: Cafe Collective, a platform where freelancers who don’t want to pay the high costs of co-working spaces or lose productivity by being at home, can book space from cafes to work. We spent about a day drafting the idea, and had 2 weeks to build everything from scratch. At the end, we managed to build even more than what we planned initially. It was tough, tiring, but nevertheless rewarding. I personally felt very empowered going through this, because you are basically able to launch almost any app as long as you have the idea for it.

Previously my background is in Management Consulting and I wanted to acquire technical skills to become a product manager.
Le Wagon Lyon was such an amazing 9-week experience for different reasons:- an intense program made up of lessons, pair exercises, group projects;- a very well designed learning platform;- competent and pedagogue teachers;- a studious but fun and pleasant atmosphere;
- a powerful alumni network.

I had no knowledge of web development before Le Wagon. Now :
- I acquired strong foundations in HTML, CSS, Ruby on Rails, Javascript, SQL, Git, design with Figma…
- I developed the mindset to learn other languages;
- I can develop functional web applications from 0 to 1. Read less

I took a part time course in Le Wagon in Tokyo from 2019. The part-time course require you to attend two weekday nights and Sat courses.
As a full-time employee, this bootcamp was perfect for my schedule. The course covered web-development in Rails, Javascript, HTML, and CSS. IMHO, the course materials were the top notch. The lectures and exercises were thoughtfully created to teach you the fundamental of web development and designs.

I have a professional software development experiences prior to courses, but I have never launched my professional web services. I think this can related to many engineers who are asked to solve very deep technical issues of one particular enterprise software, but have not had a chance to learn a full cycle of web development (i.e. wire frame to launching the production web application.)

This course successfully fulfilled my needs because their course materials are well-balanced between technical skills and professional web designs. They didn't only teach me coding, but how to successfully design web for real end users. Just search Le Wagon Demo Day on YouTube, and see how professional their final projects are. Read less

My experience at the Bali batch of Le Wagon was incredible! I registered with the vague idea that this experience would equip me with a skillset that'd set me up for a high paying career. I completely the prep work and become MUCH more interested in how I could use these tools we'd been equipped with to solve various problems. And during the bootcamp it self I dealt with having my mind repeatedly blown and/or overwhelmed by everything there was to learn!
It was one of the more difficult things I've done in my life, but also one of the more rewarding ones. I had a knack for programming and did fairly well right off the bat, but when it was a bit too much and I could tone down my ego enough to actually ask for help the teachers and TAs were there to guide me through what I was missing and turn it into a great learning experience.
Guido, Sonia, Gianluca, Rayhan, Sisi, thank you all so much for the continued support (and patience!) you've had with all of us during, and after the bootcamp. I know that my learning journey as a programmer has just begun, but I feel more than ready to walk down that path thanks to everything I learned at Le Wagon Bali. Read less

I have recently finished the Le Wagon full-time Bootcamp, batch 364, in Lyon, and I reckon, doing it was one of the best choice I ever made. This is true, Le wagon website doesn't lie, the bootcamp is pretty intense, maybe exhausting sometimes but it is worth it. It is hard to believe that we come out with such a level in coding after only 9 weeks! The courses are adapted to everyone, from beginners to more advanced people, and the teachers are, according to me, really amazing. Read less

If you want to learn to code then there are a million resources for that but if you want to develop a lasting practice of code that you can build a career on then Le Wagon offers an incredible experience.

I recently completed the full-time course in London in January 2020. It was fast-paced and highly challenging, even with the prep work, and despite this, the care from the teaching and support staff, the effectiveness of their digital learning platform and the camaraderie they develop through social and work activities provides a fantastic basis for learning. They keep you motivated, balanced and ensure you understand not just the what and how but also the why.

I highly recommend Le Wagon, and should you choose to sign up, I assure you that you will get manifold back what you put into it. Read less

I've recently finished my programming Bootcamp at Le Wagon Montreal batch #316. I am more than satisfied with the training I have received. I couldn't wish better. The atmosphere that reigns at the Wagon is warm and it feels like a big family. We are in good company, there is always someone to help us when needed. As a web designer and web strategist, I have always wanted to learn the mechanics behind web development. However, I always lacked the time and discipline to tackle this complex learning process on my own. Le Wagon has offered me the perfect opportunity to achieve this goal. I know that this new skill set will make me an even stronger designer, strategist, and team player. I leave confident with a strong foundation and many new friends. I recommend Le Wagon to anyone who wants to learn programming once and for all.

Before joining Le Wagon I worked as a finance manager in Berlin. Working in Finance, I missed the creative part of the job since I was working with numbers all day long. Thus coding seemed to be the perfect combination of logical thinking and creative ideation. I joined the Le Wagon Bali batch in January to find out whether coding would be something that I enjoy. 
Having just finished the bootcamp a month ago, I can definitely recommend it to anyone wanting to get into coding or start their own company. The amount of things that we learned and the way it was explained was perfect to get a great understanding not only of what you are doing, but also why you are doing it. I really liked the large amount of time that we actually spent coding instead of just listening to lectures. Even if you already have a better understanding of programming, they make sure that you’ll always have something challenging to do with loads of optional exercises. 
Next to the intense amount I learned during the bootcamp, I really enjoyed the community aspect as well. Everyone is really open to do things together after an intense day of coding and Le Wagon occasionally organizes trips to enjoy the island together. 
If you are seriously thinking about starting your own business, the pitch night presents a great chance to get some feedback from fellow coders and build your first prototype. Working in groups was definitely more challenging than expected, but being forced to regularly present your outcome was very motivating to give your best and find ways to work together in a team. All in all, I had the best time learning to code with Le Wagon and would 100% do it again in the future! Read less

Before joining Le Wagon, I was on a year out having just finished university. I had a few months to go before starting a graduate role. I really wanted to use this time constructively and expand my knowledge base. Coding was a buzzword for me during that year – I kept hearing that it was the skill to learn.
With zero coding experience under my belt, I was looking for a course that would start from scratch. A coding bootcamp appealed more to me personally rather than an online course. I wanted to be in a classroom setting, learning from teachers and working alongside other students – I wanted to fully immerse myself in that coding world. The 9 week program at Le Wagon not only ticked all of these boxes but it was also rated as the #1 bootcamp out there. I was definitely nervous beforehand but honestly, it was easily the best decision I made.
9 hours a day, 5 days a week for 9 weeks – it sounds intense and truthfully it was. However, you find yourself getting completely lost in it all – the challenges of the day and the code – it’s awesome. The quality of the teaching was superb. The staff’s ability to break down complex concepts and explain them to us clearly and concisely, really helped me to grasp the content. Beyond that, they were all really approachable and seemed to genuinely care about us and how we were getting on. The setup of the course meant that each day we working in pairs and during the last few weeks, in project groups. This was really enjoyable and also helpful when tackling the day’s challenges. It was fascinating to learn from each other and see how others approached the same problems.
The course at Le Wagon has drawn me into the fascinating world of coding , has seriously made me consider a career along this path and has connected me with a community of students and Le Wagon staff. Big thanks to Le Wagon London and Batch #360! Read less

 Having previously spent my career in the finance industry, I decided it was time for a change and to pursue a long-standing interest of mine – coding. Though I was worried I would have to go back to university to gain a qualification, talking to friends in the industry it became apparent that there was no need for that, as coding bootcamps more than qualified you for a junior role. In researching which bootcamp to take, Le Wagon quickly stood out as the best quality and the one that matched my goals. At the end of the course, you are a qualified junior full stack developer.  My weeks at Le Wagon were some of the best I can remember. The team and people have a genuine love of coding and of teaching their skills to a new batch of people – you feel it every day, in every interaction. The buddy system quickly means you get to know your classmates and also gain experience of helping others and reviewing other people’s code yourself.  I found myself looking forward to each day when I woke up. The structure of a morning lecture on a new topic, then spending the day doing coding challenges on that topic to solidify the knowledge was genuinely enjoyable, as well as very effective. To think where we started that first day, and what we are now capable of just nine weeks later, is incredible. I will always be grateful to Le Wagon for what they have given me, I will be highly recommended them to anyone who asks.  Read less

I recently finished at Le Wagon part time batch #317.
I come from a creative background and was looking to gain tech skills to take on more freelance work and a potential career change. I now feel like I have the foundation skills in place to build on and the confidence to continue learning. 
This course is by no means something to be taken lightly- it totally takes over your life! Studying part time is still a full time commitment with evening lectures to watch and catching up on anything missed in class, alongside your normal 9-5 commitments. But the result of working hard for 6 months pays off and I’m really happy with the skills I now have. It’s also a testament to both the course and the teaching that I was always excited to go into class on a Saturday morning. Your social life totally goes out of the window and you start dreaming in code but it’s all worth it, promise!
The magical thing about Le Wagon is everyone comes from a different background bringing with them different ways of working. As a result we all built some amazing apps and made great connections to carry on working together in the future. I have already found the Le Wagon community so useful and it’s great knowing there is a big network out there if you ever have any questions- especially as a freelancer.
My main praise for Le Wagon is the exceptional teaching and learning program. All of the TA’s had a different approach which was so helpful, and a lot of patience if you didn’t understand a concept first time around. This level of support really keeps you going during some of the tougher weeks and when it gets to final projects.
It’s also worth mentioning that our final week was the start of lockdown here in the UK and the transition to remote learning was great considering the circumstances. 
Thank you all at Le Wagon London x Read less

I would describe Le Wagon as a unique, well-structured, challenging and life-changing experience that takes place in the perfect setting: a rooftop with a sea-view in the heart of Canggu, Bali. 

Before joining the bootcamp I was working in the research team of an accelerator in NYC, right after having graduated from university. During this time I was on an exploration mode, since I did not have a clear idea of what industry I wanted to work in specifically. However, I have always had the long-term ambition of going back to Peru and launching a project to help reduce the socio-economic disparities present in the country. I knew that to be able to achieve this personal goal successfully I would first have to build more skills through experience. 

While working on the accelerator I was able to learn about the different challenges and pathways entrepreneurs around the globe took to scale up. One of the main takeaways from this experience was understanding the importance of having tech skills to achieve success in today’s digitally-oriented world, especially when seeking to be a successful entrepreneur and being able to communicate and understand every aspect of a project.  I realised that, being in my early twenties, I wanted to focus my next few years on developingnew hard-skills which would be transferable from one industry to another while acquiring knowledge on different fields. 

After 5 years in NYC, I decided to leave and jump onto this 9-week adventure at Le Wagon, Bali. I chose the Bali campus due to the cultural offerings of this island and because I was looking for a place that would be a contrast with the big cities I had previously lived in (Lima,NYC and Paris). The setting of the bootcamp definitely enhanced the entire experience because every day was a new adventure that made you discover the richness of the local culture while learning how to code. In a typical day you could surf at 6:00 am with the sunrise, ride your scooter to class through beautiful rice fields while watching the Balinese Hindus putting forward offerings, intensely code from 9:00 am to 7:00 pm in the rooftop terrace of the FRII hotel with a very fresh breeze and a sea-view, and finally end your day ina very balanced way with a yoga class with your classmates. 

On the technical side, Le Wagon has a very structured program and a user-friendly platformthat gives students and alumni a life-long access to a handful of resources including libraries, lectures and daily coding challenges. Since day one it was a very hands-on experience by having several day-long coding challenges which you had to push to your own repository. The “buddy system” during these coding challenges was one of the things that for me differed this program from just taking an online course. Every day you were assigned to a different “buddy” from the class to work together through the challenges, ask questions to each other if either one was stuck, brainstorming solutions together and gave you the chance to explain your code out-loud to someone else (which I found out to be a very effective strategy for debugging). Another resource of the program I found very useful was the “tickets system”. If you were still struggling to solve a problem after using all of the online resources and talking with your buddy  you could raise a ticket and a teacher would come and walk you through the problem. This was a very effective way of learning because it would indirectly build within each student a methodology to solve coding problems.

The first few weeks of the bootcamp were probably the most challenging because you had to adapt to the fast paced rhythm of the bootcamp while trying to understand and apply most of the new concepts that were being introduced to you each day.  This could have been a little bit frustrating at the beginning, however, after applying these concepts daily you become familiarised with them, and after the first three weeks everything starts to come together. The unconditional support, friendliness and positive energy of all the teachers made this first stage and the whole journey very enjoyable. 

The most exciting part of the journey was building your own product during the last two weeks of the bootcamp together with three other people. This experience did not only enhance our team-working skills and gave us the chance to work with people with very diverse backgrounds, but pushed our technical skills to the next level by making us bring everything that we had learned in the past months together, and researching new concepts. Our final product was called “Rated Places” it is a B2B, community-based, deals and recommendations web application which was based on our own experience and needs while living in Canggu. It was very challenging to build a product while learning how to work in teams using the different platforms, like Github and Trello, under that time pressure, but at the end the feeling was very rewarding. 

At the end of the program, we did not only learn all these technical skills but we became a family and part of Le Wagon global network. We also discovered the infinite possibilities these new set of skills gave us, through the presentations of inspiring guest speakers who were former students from Le Wagon, and understood the ongoing digital boom in Bali.  The opportunity to meet so many people coming from very diverse backgrounds and with different experiences was unique. I am very grateful for this experience and it is one that I will always hold close to my heart.

Having worked in digital for a decade, coding knowledge was constantly a block I came up against; I simply did not understand it. Outsourcing digital tasks to developers was the norm but I found this incredibly frustrating with such a keen interest in the topic.
I wanted to (finally!) learn to code, swivel my career to include dev skills as part of my remit or change it completely. After years trying numerous online courses I realised that in order to achieve this I needed to be forced into a classroom to learn in person. 
With a mortgage and full time job, a 9-week full-time bootcamp was not an option. Le Wagon - as far as I knew - was the only London bootcamp that had taken the significant steps to offer a part time course for professionals such as myself. Their first course had just started and I immediately enrolled on the second.
The course itself surpassed all expectations. I’m not afraid of hard work but this pushed me to my limits…it’s certainly not for the faint-hearted and will command your life for 6 months (yes, including Saturdays!). However the end result is worth it many times over. 
The teachers and staff make this course what it is, their commitment to our batch and their no-nonsense approach ensured we all came through with a brand new, marketable skill set. 
Regarding the teaching itself, the thing that stood out most prominently was how commercial it was - the material was always up to date and we were taught how to work as a developer, not just how to code. In support of this, the buddying and ticketing systems honed the unique type of teamwork needed to work in a tech team and upon completion of the course, we had 3 projects ready and waiting to show prospective employers the day we graduated.
Completing the course earned me a huge amount of kudos with my employer. I work in a tech team for a bank and the developers are unanimously impressed with the level of proficiency reached, the depth of knowledge gained and the way in which we were taught to code.  Read less
