The Dev School

I signed up for the course and even paid over KES15,000 (or USD150+) via MPESA.

But the site is down, no one answers my phone calls and I can't get any refund. These guys might be scammers or something because they took my money, didn't provide anything and now they are all gone (the website isn't even working).

15,000 was a huge amount of money for me, I had to borrow from several family members and now they think I'm a liar! Everyone be careful dealing with anything like Nairobi Dev school in Kenya, there is too much fraud and corruption in this country.

The dev school is one of the places that one must visit.If you have a passion for tech and not sure where to start on,give the school a buzz,someone would defintley get in touch with you.

Having enrolled into the first pilot phase of the first ever bootcamp held in nairobi,i got to acquire alot of skills.Being in an environment where not only technical skills were shared onto us,but as well as enterprenurial skills which moulded I as an individual to better my investment opportunities.The team being professional innovators made sure to utilize us to the fullest to realize our potential.

On job creation,the school defintely links you up with prospective employers and all one has to do is prove yourself which i think is the best mode of job employment through actions and not just only having papers.Currently as a person,i have shifted different job employers as a result of being offered better incremental packages and all this is a result of my technical abiliities.All thanks to the instructors who dedicated their time to interact with us.

 

The devschool was and still is the best thing that has ever happened to me. I enrolled for and attended the second batch web development bootcamp. It had specialist trainers specifically for the languages and web technologies that were being offered. They also offered extra supportive training such as entrepreneurship to complement web development skills that they were imparting. This extra skill moulding has become quite usefull in how I do business with clients and potential clients.

The Dev School moulded me into a well rounded developer in the shortest possible time (of three months) from having no technical skills at all into a fully employable web develper.

Also the fact that three weeks after I left the school I landed a nice job doesn't hurt.

I remember I was talking to the CEO asking to participate in their program as an instructor and he wants me to take their classes first and see how I do even though I have the qualification. Since I want it so bad to be part of the program I told him ok I will take their class but will do it remotely because I didn't want to quit my job. I paid the first installment over $700 and got a few emails like newsletters and what the program entails but didn't hear anything back. I tried to communicate with them even ask for a refund but nobody was responding to my email except the CEO was saying he is no longer part of their administration.
