This is my first bootcamp and I am about to graduate from the fundamental course this week. I did lots of research on bootcamps and was always told that they were going to challenge you and that you have to invest lots of time into the course.

I did lots of research on bootcamps and was always told that they were going to challenge you and that you have to invest lots of time into the course. I was able to complete the whole week's coursework with projects included in a single day. Each week you have a 4 hour live class where the instructor just walks through the week's project with you all the way through and then you turn in the assignment afterwards. I did have a basic understanding of HTML and CSS going into the course but I figured we would do more with HTML and CSS than the bare minimum. There isn't much of a challenge and I am glad I decided to take the fundamental course instead of doing the full path as I feel like I wasted my money.
I have no idea if the other courses are great and challenging but I can't take a chance of wasting a lot of money on a course that is basically one of the self-paced, free bootcamps you find on the internet. The instructor was amazing and was always willing to help students that were having issues. If it wasn't for the instructor I would have rated the bootcamp course a 1 or 2. The videos are so dry and the narrator will put you to sleep so I decided to just go and read the JS documentation instead and basically do my own research on topics and even make my own spin on the assignments to challenge myself. The instructor was great and didn't fail me on assignments for not just completely the assignments with the very basic requirements that we were given and actually liked us to go above and beyond.
TLDR;
If you know the basics of HTML and CSS and just need to learn Javascript, I would just skip this class. Maybe try their front-end class and see if that was challenging for you. Coursework is very basic and you can complete a week's work in one afternoon and the class is setup to hold your hand and not challenge you like bootcamps are meant to do from what I have read. I might look at another bootcamp to do Full-Stack tracks as I am unsure Nucamp's other courses can offer a quality I would like based on what I saw in this fundamental course.Stephanie of Nucamp

Hi Jacob, thank you for your review.
We would agree with you that the 4-week introduction to HTML, CSS, and JavaScript bootcamp is tailored for beginners and that more advanced learners like you may go thru it much faster than intended.
I hope that the last two weeks of JavaScript gave you a challenge though and that you enjoyed these assignments.
I'm glad you found our instructors amazing, and I wish you good luck in the future, hopefully with us!- Shannon BentleyHelp Desk Support Specialist • Student • Full Stack Web and Mobile Application Development • OnlineVerified by GitHubOct 24, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Make the decision to enroll with Nucamp!
Affordability and good reviews led me to enroll in Nucamp. This decision has changed my life for the better as a software developer. I had ever made, as I had seen significant progress from when I first taught myself how to code. - DerekStudent • Full Stack Web and Mobile Application Development • OnlineVerified by GitHubOct 22, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Nucamp is a Great Option
Nucamp is a great way to get your feet wet. They do lots of great examples, the teachers are helpful and generally have been Nucamp grads in a way. Ultimately there are lots of ways to learn how to code, but Nucamp was the most cost effective option I could find and one that helps you land a career later! Whatever you do, make sure you take the time to build real projects. This will help you get your foot in the door, especially if you don't have a BS of Computer Science. - James TraubStudent • SeattleVerified by GitHubOct 18, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A

Nucamp Experience So Far
So far my Nucamp experience has been a blast! It has only been 5 weeks, but I have learned a lot about bootstrap, javascript and google cloud services. I enrolled into Nucamp so that I may transition into a new carrer path and it has been the right choice. By the end of this course I want to land a job in the tech industry preferably a frontend developer role and make my own application. - Nazar KrukStudent • New York CityVerified by GitHubOct 15, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A

Nucamp is rewarding experience for me
I was hoping to have a career change in advance. I want to do something different than the job that I am doing today. I hope to get a real tech job out there after I finished Nucamp. so far, Nucamp is an awesome online school where you can learn on your own and workshops on Saturday are great benefits. Nucamp community on Slack app is awesome and helpful. - Damian LevyStudentVerified by LinkedInSep 25, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A

Full Stack Development Bootcamp
Nucamp is incredible. I had begun learning to code myself, and after completing a Javascript course, I knew I wanted a little more help in filling in the gaps.
While there aren't extreme deadlines and intensive assessments that might fail you out, like other bootcamps, Nucamp is perfect for balancing anything else one has going on, and learning to program.

I feel I have the ability to go out into the tech world and truly do well. The instructors are amazing and helpful, especially if you put in your due diligence to understand content as well. I personally didn't need to be terrified of failing out in order to learn to code, I just needed resources and a few deadlines, and I loved it!
I stand behind any bootcamp that gives this type of access to learning to code. Bravo to Nucamp! - Benedict JallahGraduateVerified by LinkedInSep 05, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
