There was several times where class was canceled, and students did not find out about this information until logging in to class. There was a whole class where the instructor didn't bother to login at all, so students focused on collaborating on a project instead. The course material was interesting, but in the end I feel as though it comes to no reward. I wish there was a deeper focus on student need and help with either gaining certifications or experience in the industry itself. I've seen other sessions with better instructors and it seemed that those subset of students had a better experience. I plan to use this experience as a base for seeking further education.Overall2.0Curriculum3.0Job supportN/AInstructors1.0 -

The worst student experience I have ever had.
The ONLY positive thing to say about this school was the instructor, Michael..however the school is planning to phase him out sadly. Every other person who works here is virtually useless.

Every other person who works here is virtually useless. The labs hardly work, the "lecture" videos are horrendous, better to watch youtube. You will literally learn nothing and job placement is non existent. When you attempt to complain about the school to the school's advisor he will either outright ignore you or deny all your claims. Lastly, career placement does not exist. They do not help for anything and they will not help you find a job. This course is literally a scam and I wish I could get my $6800.00 back as I wasted 6 months and a lot of money.Overall1.0Curriculum1.0Job support1.0Instructors3.0 -

We are supposed to meet with the professor on zoom 2 days a week and today is the second time he was a no call no show and we were just sitting on a zoom call waiting for him. The other 2 times he cancelled an hour or 2 before class. You are supposed an hour session each week with your mentor (the professor) and that hasn't happened at all. The classes are supposed to be 2 hours, 2 days a week and they are usually 30 min a piece if that with him showing you a couple of websites and then saying if anyone has any questions if not you're free to go. Anything I've learned is through the modules and its basically the same as using Udemy or Pluralsight. Do yourself a favor and stay away, its not worth the money and as far as im concerned its a total scamOverall1.0Curriculum2.0Job support1.0Instructors1.0 -

It was so bad I had to use youtube and purchase courses on udemy to grow an understanding of how to code. I ran into issues and fell behind by weeks because when I asked for help directly or on the help board no one responded. I would not tell anyone to take this bootcamp, you are better off learning by yourself because that is what they made me do. I paid over $6000 to be ignored and learn very little from their courses. Please, do not use this service, I do not want to see anyone else fall into the same situation I am in.
P.S.
The job guarantee is only if you have a bachelor's degree, but they do not tell you this. They will tell you about the job guarantee program, but will fail to mention needing a bachelors, do not fall for the trap.Overall1.0Curriculum1.0Job support1.0Instructors1.0
