I chose Nucamp because of the pricing and the online course structure. I’ve completed the Web Development Fundamentals bootcamp, which was a great start for a newbie like myself. It was very much fast-paced. I can honestly say that I’ve learned a lot in a short period of time. The amount of support that one receives when stuck is wonderful. My plan is to continue on to Full Stack coding bootcamp through Nucamp.

HTML, CSS< and JavaScript at Nucamp
This bootcamp offers an introduction to the essentials of web page development –– HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Although hesitant at first, I am truly glad that I took this course. The curriculum was very well put together and my instructor was very knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. Will definitely take the more advanced Nucamp courses in the future.

Flexible option for those with busy schedules
Flexible for those of us who are busy with full-time jobs and don't have the luxury to go back to school. It's a nice blend of both online coursework, and in-person lectures.

Web Development Fundamental
The course was great to learn the fundamentals and the teacher was super. The flexible learning the best for those who have a full-time job. Small classes, helpful staff, and affordable Bootcamp. Absolute worth it!

Relevant Material
The use current and relevant web technologies that are currently used in the industry .. I appreciate that over the tilt towards theoretical knowledge thought in traditional schools. It is certainly fast paced ,but it goes without saying you have to do the work and the support system is good

The program is affordable and great meeting new people. I enjoyed my time learning here but I wish it was more than 4 weeks. Six weeks will be great for this class.

Course Review

I chose Nucamp for a few reasons:
1: I wanted to learn new programming skills through a class-like presentation.
2: The online portion was something I could easily do where I could live.
3: The price wasn't too high for the course I took compared to alternative camps.I liked learning common elements, terms, and concepts the most.
The common elements are a place to start of ideas that have commonly been used already and make it easier to imagine how lesser known elements will work. -

not so hot
Nucamp surely is a new platform and it is really well developed. Meaning that the youth of the platform/business is noticeable. I was enrolled in the remote program. The in-person workshops on Saturdays may really make the difference and especially considering the ability to have in-person relationship building through your studies.

Nucamp- HTML,CSS, JavaScript
The class is very informative, cost effective, and fits into my schedule. There are some bugs with the program when it comes to the intro to JavaScript, but with additional resources, I was able to figure things out.

NuCamp is Great
The Web Developments Fundamental workshop has been very helpful. I have learned a lot and appreciate my instructor Jonathan Root for being so patient and helpful with all of the students. The class was well worth the money. I didn't know how it was going to not being in a physical classroom, but the Saturday Workshops and the weekly lectures were easy to follow.

I enjoyed the web programming fundamentals course at Nucamp. The instructor was very friendly and did everything he could to make me understand the basics of programming. He didn't mind repeating over and over again just to ensure we were on the right track. The classes are also convenient and affordable; I did not have to quit my job to learn how to code. Can't wait to proceed to the next course in November!

The Beginners Course

I chose NuCamp for several big reasons. They have great reviews, classes online and a workshop on Saturdays, but also they were more affordable than the average bootcamp. So, in short, it's affordable, there is a comfortable schedule, and it is still challenging and rewarding. I also loved the instructors I met. All of them are passionate about what they are teaching and that was SO refreshing. I'm already signed up for Fullstack in November. NuCamp actually makes it fun to learn on top of learning a valuable trade.

HTML, CSS, and JavaScript
I chose Nucamp for the value, and the flexibility to work on lessons after work and weekends. The class time and opportunity to ask questions of the teacher in real-time was helpful, and the introductory course acted as a good way to get a feel for the next Full Stack stage.

This was something different and a lot to take in for 4 weeks. I am very happy that I took the leap for this course. I really want to thank all the members of NuCamp that helped in guiding me and even the students that were knowledgeable helped me as well. It goes to show we are all here to better our futures and careers. I really enjoyed this course. I know there is much more needed to become a great coder and full stacker. Being here has taught me that team work really exists and I am not going to stop here. Thanks NuCamp!

I have taken many computer science/programming courses through continuing ed programs found at colleges and universities, software development schools, etc. And these are big name outfits like the computer science department at the University of Washington, Bellevue College (Seattle, WA - a tech capital), and leading boot camps like Galvanize. NuCamp is up there with them.
I have only taken the four week intro course in HTML-CSS-JS, but it is a solid 20 hours a week of self study - this is not a class you just walk into - make sure you are ready to commit yourself to the time requirement to study. You will only get out of it what you put into it. You will learn the basics, but have a couple projects to upload to your GitHub page that are the results of your hard work. BTW, they show you GitHub, how to use it, how to load your projects, and emphasize the importance of using GigHub, especially in your job search. There are many good things I could say about the school, but if you are looking to find a software intensive, seriously consider NuCamp - and the price is 1/10th of other schools and the quality is just the same. Your instructors will outline the path ahead, teach you the code, etc., etc. Class size is small: my class had four people in it; another class that was meeting had about eight students. I had time to meet and chat with other instructors to learn about key information to help with career development, and the general learning plan when it comes to learning software development. Our class met on Saturday mornings in person, and the instructor made time for one on one if needed. Would highly encourage anyone considering a software development intensive to consider Nucamp. I am enrolled in the upcoming 22 week full stack developer course, and am excited to start.

I chose Nucamp cause it was close to my house and it was convenient. The best part was the instructor how knowledgeable and interesting he made the classes.

Quick Review
I love how Nucamp is nearly risk-free in terms of financial cost and caters to flexible learning for those in a full-time job. The small class got people and instructors on a more personal level unlike classes with big lectures.

NuCamp - Online

I selected NuCamp because of the flexible schedule and the great cost compared to other boot camps. I have been very pleased with this investment (Web Fundamentals). My weekly instructor is very patient and responsive when help is needed. The coursework has given a good balance of video instruction and exercises to make sure we are retaining what we've seen and heard. I would recommend this to anyone interested in exploring and/or learning more about coding.

I choose NuCamp because of the low cost. I enjoyed NuCamp because it pushed me to learn more in a short period of time. It was a good experience, and I am hoping to participate in the full stack bootcamp.

Nucamp Web Fundamentals

I looked at various bootcamp options before giving Nucamp a shot. Most other offerings are far more expensive and are significant investments in time and money. I was pleased with the Nucamp Web Fundamentals course which lasted 4 weeks and will likely move forward with the Full Stack Developer course (22 week commitment) after this experience. The course is arranged so that you can work a regular 9-5 job, using off time to study/code to prepare for the Saturday 5 hour meet-up hosted by the instructor. The format worked well for me despite the distractions thrown at me by life. I enjoyed having a more structured approach to the material than I would have had access to if I had chosen to "go it alone, teach myself" by buying a book or just googling it. Having the instructor and classmates to bounce questions off of resolved issues and expanded knowledge faster than the singular approach.

Web Fundamentals Camp: HTML, CSS and JS
Read more Read less of Carmen Montanez's review
I chose new camp as a way to continue my education while at the same time working on a full-time job.
The classes were fun! Lots of opportunity for interaction, asking questions and helping each other. I took the course online entirely, including the in-class portion.
Nucamp delivered!: cost, quality, support, interactivity, communication. I am very pleased with the lessons and have learnt a lot!
The online modules are well constructed, the lectures are very clear and the support materials are on point. The videos selected are accessible and the instructor in them explains really clearly, in a very positive note. I would take a class in person with him if I could.
Every assignment is helpful in providing practice for the weekly in-class project. The weekly in-class project summarizes really well what is learnt. Each of the assignments are examples that can be applied to real situations for a developer.
Loved my online instructor, very supportive and knowledgeable, always encouraging students to learn from each other and share his wisdom. I do appreciate that very much Austin!

I chose Nucamp coding bootcamp because I wanted to see if coding is something I could enjoy. I work full time and overtime, so other schooling is not right for me; 2-3 hours online during the week and one weekend day in person is workable. The price is well worth the experiment. In my case, I enjoyed the beginner bootcamp so much that I've signed up for the more extensive bootcamp. A few people quit halfway through. I can't help but think they found it worthwhile, though. I would have; even if it wasn't for me. Knowing is better than the opposite.

I've chosen Nucamp for its flexibility, convenient schedule, and affordability. But the best part of the process were the in-person classes, thanks to our teacher Alex Smith, who did a wonderful job explaining complicated materials in an easy-to-grasp way, and helping with and correcting our projects without being judgmental or negative. All in all, the course was both fun and productive, and I'm looking forward to go on for the full-stack program at Nucamp in the nearest future.

Nucamp Web Basics
Read more Read less of Valentino Contri's review
Nucamp allowed me the opportunity to learn a lot about the programming world in a month. It highlighted some weaknesses I have as a student, but the in class workshops have given me the confidence to continue self-paced learning and self-directed projects. It was an excellent introduction to the topic and the cost was the best I could find in the bootcamp market. I would highly recommend for anyone looking for a crash course in the basics and will look to Nucamp for an extended bootcamp when I am ready for the commitment of 22weeks. Thanks for the program!

I chose Nucamp because I saw the affordable price and the flexibility for adults who works full time. I really enjoyed the workshop meets on Saturdays. It really tied everything today. Even though it was 4 hours long it did not feel like it, time flies by fast when you're learning.

One of the reasons why I chose Nucamp was because of the price, its very affordable, and because they offered online par-time classes.
Nucamp helped me a lot to understand the basics of html, css and javascript.
The professor on the videos was very knowledgeable and explained the material in a very understandable way. Also our workshop instructor was very talented and very optimistic by motivating us and explaining us if we were struggling to understand certain material.
I highly recommend Nucamp to anyone working full-time jobs and because of the affordable price.

Great IN-PERSON Fundamentals Class
Read more Read less of Auzzie Sheard's review
I had a very good experience in Nucamp's Fundamentals course (HTML, CSS, Javascript) course, and it was definitely worth the investment, and would recommend it without hesitation. A great place to start exploring CS!
I am considering a career change and Nucamp offered the best way to do that. It was only non-full-time program that met in person, and one of the few that were in my price range. I had tried an online only course on Udemy and failed to stick with it. That said, they are worth considering because they do a great job focusing on the educational aspect of the course. I certainly benefited from structure of this bootcamp, which caters toward working adults.
I found the “flipped classroom” approach to be very useful. By having the instructional content online, and the activities in person, I was able to utilize my peers and instructors to ask questions and collaborate like you would in dev job. The in-person assignments do a good, not great, job of utilizing all the skills you learn during the week. To get the most out of the class, I would recommend some time to reflect on what you learned last week, and to explore a couple of concepts you are currently learning in more depth. Or look at things that are related to what you are learning that week, to help flesh things out. You certainly have the time to do so. There is not too much content each day to explore things a little more and find something to spark your curiosity and motivate you further.
During the course, I felt confident in my abilities to learn new skills, and confident in Nucamp’s ability to teach new and more challenging concepts. Thus, I have decided to continue with their full stack course. I just started the Bootstrap version and the high quality of instruction continues, and am exicted for what's next in my CS journey thanks to Nucamp.

I highly recommend Nucamp--it has been a fantastic experience thus far. The structure and course content strike the perfect balance of in-depth teaching and realistic time expectations for those completing Nucamp while working full time.
The instructors are second to none; knowledgeable, personable and able to teach complex development concepts with clarity, grace and eloquence. They make you feel accepted and smart as you're learning--truly invaluable for motivation and exponential learning!

Great way to stay committed!
With the countless MOOCs available these days, I have yet to commit to one and complete it.
I found the learning experience offered by nucamp very effective in helping me reach my goals.
It provided structure and collaboration that are otherwise missing when following online material on your own.
Overall, it was an enjoyable experience and would be a great resource for serious learners. -
Andrii Tymoshenko
In-person was better than my past experiences with online instructors
I especially like that we met in person every week for workshops and got the opportunity to collaborate with other students.
It’s much harder to meet and collaborate online with a group, and never as efficient as in person interactions. -
Brandon K. Richard
Great in-person workshops
Before joining nucamp I took part in another course that implemented a mentor system for each project.
While this worked out okay, nucamp's system of in-person group sessions was more helpful and allowed for better, more personal feedback. -

Good choice for working professionals
Read more Read less of Daniil Krets's review
I really appreciated nucamp's approach to teaching: it's perfect for people working 40hrs a week and having no opportunity to give up their jobs to learn to code.
The instructor helps deal with concept that are hard to understand, share best practices and give opportunity to discuss assignments and learn online as well as in person.
In comparison one day bootcamps or full-time 12-week courses are expensive and time-consuming. Nucamp's approach is flexible, goes deeper and the price is very affordable. -

From Electrical Engineering to Software Development
Read more Read less of Anonymous's review
I come from a background in electrical engineering and many years of experience working with electrical systems and technical projects. I decided to enroll in Nucamp because I wanted to expand my technical skills and learn software development, with the goal of combining programming and technology with my existing engineering background.So far, Nucamp has been a valuable learning experience for me. I started with the fundamentals of web development and progressed into HTML, CSS, JavaScript, APIs, and practical projects. I particularly appreciate the hands-on approach because the assignments give me the opportunity to apply what I learn and understand how different concepts work together in a real project.Balancing work, studying, and other responsibilities can be challenging, and the program requires discipline and independent study. At the same time, having a structured curriculum, workshops, assignments, and instructor support has helped me continue progressing.For me, Nucamp has been a good opportunity to enter the software development field without leaving behind my previous technical experience. My goal after completing the bootcamp is to continue developing my programming skills and build a career that combines my background in electrical engineering with software, automation, and technology.I am looking forward to continuing my education and seeing where this combination of engineering and software development can take me.
