- Le Wagon's Rio de Janeiro Bootcamp- 11/11/2019Bruno Marin • Software Developer • Graduate • Course: Web Development Course - Full-time • Campus: Rio de Janeiro • Verified via GitHub
It's been three months since I finished Le Wagon's Bootcamp and I'm pretty happy how things have gone so far.
Well, prior to Le Wagon, I had been working as Product Manager in Rio de Janeiro but I've never had the chance to really dive deep into technology, which has been my goal since I figured it out this was the market that I'd like to work on. As a PM, it is really important to evaluate the customers' needs, to know how to deal with the different stakeholders and, of course, understand what has to be done to solve the customers pains. However, in the startup environment, things happen really fast and your pace must be equivalent, in order to deliver value to the customers and its investors. Thus, I felt that I had a technology knowledge gap which was holding me down to take higher flights.
As soon as I felt that I needed to take this step deeper into technology, I found about Le Wagon and, since from reading its syllabus, I felt that it would be a great opportunity to learn and evolve as someone who wants with technology for life.
I took part of the #261 batch and it was a great opportunity to meet new people, exchange experiences and, of course, learn a lot of new things. The bootcamp is really hands on, with a lot of practical exercises and with a dynamic really similar to what is working as a developer in the real world. The student really needs to look for the answer, debug its code and learn from its mistakes. Also, what impressed me was the product driven mentality from it, which lacks in a lot of companies and is a huge differential among other developers.
After struggled a lot, I'm pretty sure I'm on the right track. At the moment, I work at Stone Pagamentos, the most valuable payment company in Brazil, as a developer and I'm sure that the Le Wagon took a huge part on it.
- Engaging and Eye-Opening- 8/8/2020Stephanie Dinu • Computer Scientist • Graduate • Course: Web Development Course - Full-time • Campus: Milan • Verified via LinkedInDuring my time with Le Wagon’s Batch #380 in Milan, Italy, I learned many valuable practical skills that would not only support me on my way to beginning my career in Computer Science and Web Development , but to also help me flourish in the diverse and international environment that is IT. Working on rigorous, yet engaging, tasks throughout the week with peers of different backgrounds, cultures, and life experiences was invigorating and introduced me to different ways of thinking, eventually making me a more focused, efficient, and patient programmer. I am excited to continue to learn and work with Le Wagon, and eventually become a Tutor myself and to try out their new Data Science course!
- Great experience !- 8/7/2020I had my first experiences in coding during my thesis in clinical life science. I performed statistical and bioinformatic analysis. Slowly but surely, I became more and more passionate about intersections of Healthcare, data and programming.After my thesis, I attended a data science bootcamp (blent.ai) and got a position on a project aiming to develop tools for diagnostic assistance with machine learning and medical images.I decided to join Le Wagon (Paris, part time program) because I still had no experience in web development and how to design a functional product. For my current work, I wanted to learn how to integrate our machine learning model in a web application so non-tech users could use it and better understand the solution we provide.The part time program (6 months) I spent at Le Wagon was quite tough, but we had time to process information and to enjoy this adventure. All of this, in a friendly environment and community. I'm now more confident about what I can do to design solutions and to code with a team. And this is only the beginning.
- Career (and life) changing experience- 8/5/2020Patricia • Software Developer • Graduate • Course: Web Development Course - Part-time • Campus: Sao Paulo • Verified via LinkedInSome months ago, I was working as a lawyer in a big law firm. I was unhappy with my career, because I couldn't see any purpose in it anymore, just doing repetitive meaningless stuff. That was when I discovered Le Wagon. I felt like as if I just discovered a whole new world, because I never thought I could be a programmer, coming from another completely different area.I was always interested in technology but I had no idea how to code before Le Wagon. After only 3 months (half of the course), I learned enough to change jobs and started working as a programmer with Python, even though I didn't have any notion of Python before.I am glad I had the chance to learn so much and be part of this awesome community. It was truly a life-changing experience.
- Full Stack Developper- 8/3/2020Grégoire • Financial Services Consultant • Graduate • Course: Web Development Course - Part-time • Campus: Paris • Verified via LinkedInOne year ago, after 4 years in the financial services industry, I decided to join Le Wagon Paris, within their first Part Time program.
My main motivation for joining Le Wagon was to develop hard skills which could both help me in my current job, and enable me to be more employable for any future opportunity.
The 6 months I spent at Le Wagon were definitely tough, but even more a good experience.
I hadn’t had such an important intellectual challenge for years, and by chance, at Le Wagon, we are well supported to reach the targeted level, and by the end, to develop a web app (almost) ready-to-use.
Since I left, in February, I didn’t code a lot, but I use other skills gained during the Part Time program, such as UX design, for my current job as a financial services consultant.
- Claire • Fullstack Web Developer • Graduate • Course: Web Development Course - Full-time • Campus: Bali • Verified via LinkedInIt was way more challenging than I expected, but learning as part of a group and with teachers available almost 24/7 helps a lot in this journey where you otherwise would be on the verge of giving up a lot of times.
I didn't think I could learn so much in such a short period of time. I'm not going go lie, it requires tons of hours of work, but it's really worth the time and money invested if you're willing to commit yourself fully to it. Plus, you already have a Github portfolio at the end of the bootcamp.
I'd recommend it if you're sure you like coding enough to "suffer" to learn it. If the answer is yes, this bootcamp is truly great and you'll be amazed at what you're capable of doing at the end of it.
- Great courses- 8/3/2020Vorachith • Student • Course: Web Development Course - Full-time • Campus: Paris • Verified via GitHubAmazing teachers very attentive. You come for a bootcamp but you will find more than what you asked. Sure, the bootcamp will get you the tech skills you need in a fraction of the time. So you will build strong foundations for learning how to code. Moreover, Teacher’s Assistant share their post bootcamp experiences, it's definitively worth your time and your money.
- Bootcamp Rails Fullstack 9 weeks- 8/2/2020Quentin DELEGLISE • Graduate • Course: Web Development Course - Full-time • Campus: Paris • Verified via LinkedInBoarding for the Paris’s Wagon batch #291 was an amazing experience !Hang on because the program is intensive : 9 weeks to take up the challenge.Teachers are extremely competent, helpful and available. Everything is optimized to encourage and facilitate learning (the setup of the machines, the format of the courses, the optional exercises, the different projects, the atmosphere, the assistance…)The Wagon allowed me to understand and acquire all the necessary tools to work in the world of tech.The little + of the Wagon ? : his community and the good spirit that reigns there.The meetup between alumni, teacher and entrepreneurs are extremely rich in teaching.As you will understood, I can only encourage you to embark on this wonderful adventure and to come out grown up of this training.Quentin DELEGLISE
- Really amazing experience- 7/31/2020Solène Duprat • Graduate • Course: Web Development Course - Full-time • Campus: Montreal • Verified via LinkedInIt was a really amazing, life changing experience, and I don't regret it at all! I am really glad I decided to join. The teachers are great, the content is really good, and I get access to the content for the rest of my life so I can review it whenever I want!
- Best webdev bootcamp!- 7/31/2020Alexandra • Graduate • Course: Web Development Course - Full-time • Campus: Paris • Verified via LinkedInAfter a few years as a Product Owner I felt the need to understand the technical issues I was facing every day. I was challenging developers and agencies all the time, not knowing exactly what they were doing.
I also wanted to take a turn and evolve in my career but I didn't really know what to do.
So I decided to attend Le Wagon and quickly realized that I had made the best decision! I learned SO many things beyond just code in a super friendly atmosphere where no one is left behind thanks to passionate teachers. I met a lot of very nice people from various backgrounds, which is also the strength of the program.
Being part of Le Wagon community and network is a real strength and helped many alumni so far.
I can only recommend Le Wagon bootcamp as it really exceeded my expectations on all levels.
- Life Changing but even that is a understatement to how big of a impact it had in my life!- 7/31/2020Henry • Junior Software Developer • Graduate • Verified via LinkedInFrom the moment I started this bootcamp on the first day of a 6 month journey in a Part-Time Coding Bootcamp, It has been a tremendous journey of growth not just in technical skills as a dev/engineer but also being able to grow to learn product design skills, being able to learn to work and collaborate with your cohort and even being able to understand the journey of building a MVP as if you were going into the startup journey. I wouldn't say that I have come out of the bootcamp knowing everything to be at a level of a senior engineer or a high-level entrepreneur, but I would say I have learned a solid foundation of learning how to learn, solve problems and understand product that will help pave a clear road map as to becoming a great 10xer as a Senior Developer or even a product manager.The friends I made in that journey and coming out of this bootcamp securing a role as a Junior Software Developer at a Scale-Up Company. I know this is just the beginning of a new life just look forward to seeing where this takes me.Having struggled to find an education program that suits my approach to learning for the longest time I am grateful I made that decision to do Le Wagon and of course a big shout to the Melbourne Team for their patience, support, and teachings through all this.Thank you

- Full Stack Developer & Entrepreneur- 7/29/2020Yannis • Course: Web Development Course - Full-time • Campus: Paris • Verified via LinkedInPassionate about tech, I joined Le Wagon's web development spring Bootcamp to learn necessary coding skills and new ways to create businesses.
The training exceeded my expectations: attending Le Wagon's Bootcamp has been a life-changing experience.
Not only I've learned to code and can now call myself a junior full-stack developer. Still, I have also learned a new way of thinking through a start-up entrepreneur spirit.
I've also learned to build an app in a team, work in an agile mode, and pitch my product.
I strongly recommend Le Wagon to anyone interested in web development!
